Outline

The presentation describes the conduct and delivery of the teaching, and the assessment of Engineering Profession using project-based approach. Engineering Profession , a common subject in the 1 st year engineering curriculum, has been developed to overcome two key perceived problems of new engineering students: a lack of understanding of what engineers actually do, and of the environment in which they work and interact with the community. The presentation further shows that the use of group work and problem-based learning approach are important teaching models for the education in engineering.
