Course content
Successful students in this global project based learning course will acquire integrated capacity of problem-solving, which is required when they work as a member of an international and/or interdisciplinary team, through synthetic problem solving experience in (Cross-cultural Engineering Project) CEP based on multi-cultures and multi-discipline. Through this experience, students would be triggered by setting their own theme selected from suggested keywords by the lecturers, then exposed to hands-on experience on “Systems thinking”, “Systems Method”, and “Systems Management”. The CEP is designed as an engineering educational program based on system thinking, and is held in three area.
- Glocal problem at KMUTT in Thailand,
- Industrial & community cooperative at SIT in Japan,
- Innovative creation at FCT/UNL in Portugal.
Finally, the credit is obtained by studying CEP of one area.
