Although numerous studies and research on changing or restructuringengineering education have been conducted over the last century, many findings have remainedthe same over time, such as (a) what to include in the curricula, (b) how long engineeringeducation should be, (c) what level of specialization, (d) how to prepare students, and (e) how tomeet the needs of society. The trends in engineering education that we found to be mostprevalent in reviewed reports and articles are increased attention
