Then, at multiple points in the four-year program, Students work inindustry (a co-op assignment with an engineer's salary; a total of three co-ops is mandatory forgraduation) to apply their knowledge and build real work experience. Rather than focusing ondry theoretical topics separately, we teach engineering theory through an integrated and appliedapproach in system design, so Students learn how concepts work together - as they would in the"real world."Students also have team-oriented design experiences integrated throughout their curriculum

to support a change inthe K-12 curriculum in Singapore. A student’s motivation to pursue an engineering course, aswell as the experiences gained by a student from their home, school, neighborhood, andwork, can be shaped by their K-12 education. Integrating engineering education into K-12education in Singapore allows students to be exposed to the field of engineering from ayounger age. The benefit of this is twofold: firstly, students can gain a better understanding ofengineering, how it is applied in the real world, and why it is important. Secondly, studentscan gain greater confidence in their engineering skills and knowledge, regardless of theirbackground. As many students at the pre-university level in Singapore may feel that

While the Kolb cycle of Figure2 discusses the steps that an individual learner goes through, models such as Harre’s Vygotskycycle [12], Figure 3, integrate social aspects of learning. Here learners are explicitly assumed tobe interacting with other learners and the teacher as they go through various stages of learning.It is the social interaction and acceptance of others through which a learner comes to recognizethemselves as possessing knowledge which they can then pass on to others in turn.
