The letter i in iSTREAM and iCDIOS means intelligentscience and technology, innovation spirit, inspiration, etc. In iSTREAM, Robotics, as anindependent element is added since we believe that Robotics will be an independent subjectwith coming era of human-machine collaboration; Mathematics is changed into managementto cultivate Chinese students' abilities related to management; In iCDIOS, S as service isadded to complete the whole engineering process.2.4 STIE FrameworkBased on

While the legacy science and engineering curriculum model has produced the talentbasefor tremendous technological advances through the 20th century, many engineering education leaders haverecently amplified calls for a transformation of engineering education to embrace complex systemsthinking, transdisciplinary collaboration, communication, and social impact(6), producing “a whole newengineer”(7).
