Welcome to the second episode of Season 3 of the SEFI podcast! During this season we discuss changes in European engineering education and engineering education research over the last few decades
In this episode we speak to Professor José Carlos Quadrado from The Lisbon Higher Institute of Engineering and President of the ENTER (EngineeriNg educaTors pEdagogical tRaining) network, an international entity that regulates the profession of engineering teaching worldwide. The international ENTER project was developed as part of an EU Erasmus program which focused on developing a new approach in pedagogical training of engineering teachers which is considered as necessary to support the development of a modern generation of engineers for the future.
Join Dr. Natalie Wint (University College London) and Dr. Neil Cooke (University of Birmingham) to learn about recognising engineering educators as professional teachers.
