A Collaborative Sprint for the Future of Engineering Education
Generative AI is shifting engineering faster than higher education can pace. Our student panels reveal a stark reality: students are often highly sophisticated AI users, who genuinely want to learn, not just short-circuit assessments. Meanwhile, industry is rapidly transforming graduate recruitment, to prioritise different skills.
How do we respond without reverting to policed, exam-hall control, and whilst giving our students the space to build the skills, alongside knowledge, they’ll need to succeed?
This interactive, two-and-a-half-hour collaborative sprint moves past the panic to map the real-world landscape. Together, we will explore the challenges and emerging practices across three vital pillars:
- Curriculum: What technical knowledge and wider human capabilities do graduates need?
- People: What training do educators need to feel confident alongside AI-sophisticated students?
- Partners: How are industry and universities managing the critical transition to employment?
This is an open forum to share what is happening across the sector, debate the challenges, and find out what plans colleagues are testing. Your insights, alongside submitted case studies and student reflections, will directly shape the evidence base for the upcoming new edition of the EPC’s landmark publication, Emerging Stronger: The AI Edition.
