Welcome to the final episode of this special season of the SEFI podcast which marks the 50th anniversary of SEFI and in which we discuss changes to engineering education and engineering education research (EER) occurring in Europe over the last few decades.
In this episode we talk to SEFI Fellow, Xavier Fouger from Dassault Systèmes, a global leader in engineering education who has worked at the interface of industry and academia through many technological changes which have shaped our roles as educators.
show notes:
Join Dr. Natalie Wint (University College London) and Dr. Neil Cooke (University of Birmingham) to learn about changes to both engineering practice and engineering education over the last few decades.
