, Amravati (M.S.) India-444602 The effectiveness of teaching learning process is a function of multitude of factors like teacher, student, course curriculum, course planning and assessment. Hence, to have effective learning by the student, faculty development is must. Role of universities in international collaboration in faculty development is important to make engineering education & research more relevant to the needs of global society and to the aptitude and aspiration of new generation of engineers. Shortage of training opportunities and attention to over all growth of faculty is adversely affecting impartation of

Andrew’s research focuses on measuring and improving the socio-economic aspects of built environment performance, in- cluding construction value, sustainability, performance improvement, total quality management (TQM) and benchmarking. His early research focussed on construction productivity and the motivation and de- velopment of human resources. At present, he is researching innovative planning and design solutions for health and care infrastructure, continuous improvement and the project management of large construction projects.

Other important areas were‘communication’, ‘business acumen’, ‘strategic planning’, and ‘financial management’.Adaptability and agility are also important areas citing recent changing business paradigm.This observation is well supported by the two recent IBM reports16,17 in that an adaptiveworkforce is required to respond to competitive and quickly shifting global markets, aprecursor for future organizational success. Creating an adaptable workforce requires morethan a series of HR programs, it starts with leadership and the ability to “crack the code” fortalent.Engineers will also have to face the complexity of managing four generations of workers,from baby boomers to Gen Z (born after 1995), plus

Beijing National AquaticsCenter (the Water Cube). Though many students had heard of these places or read about thembefore, learning them from images and books is very different from being physically at the site,which gives deep impressions that can not be achieved through other means. 3.3 Other learning opportunities present during the courseWhile the scheduled visits to the sites mentioned above were a critical part of the course, otherlearning opportunities, sometimes very valuable, took place outside of the planned activities. Forexample, students learned firsthand how severe the air pollution problem is in the Chinese bigcities. The air pollution caused by industrialization was visible everywhere.

It is intended that the student is able touse this knowledge in later subjects of his specialty which in fact does not happen automaticallyor successfully. This course is currently taught in 25 different engineering programs. Accordingto each undergraduate study plan, it is found in the third or fourth semester.Since in the current context it is important to prepare future engineers who are able to solveproblems in their areas5, important background to this study is the redesign of the mathematicscurriculum that the Engineering school started in our department in 19996,7 The questions
