Influencing the global state of engineering education

In December 2020, faculty and students from 16 engineering institutions from around the globe gathered virtually for the Second Colloquium on the Global State of the Art in Engineering Education. The participating colleges and universities, including Olin College, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Stanford University and Aalborg Universitet, had all been named as leaders in engineering education by Dr. Ruth Graham’s The Global State of the Art in Engineering Education 2019 report, commissioned by the New Engineering Education Transformation Program (MIT NEET). As a leader in the space, Olin was well represented at the December event. Read more on The Wire.
