Unable to predict so volatile a future, we nonetheless have to decide about whatto teach engineers and how to prepare them for an increasingly international workplace without compromising thehard-won quality of education programs. The main purpose of engineering education is to provide engineering graduates with knowledge, skills andattitudes, which will enable them to practice their profession with competence and confidence.

One identified gap was a Center focused on engineering and technology educationwith a requirement that a Center guide the expansion of engineering and technology education inthe schools. In 2003, a team of faculty members from nine universities met to develop aproposal in response to the program solicitation, NSF 04-501.
