Next Horizons - Innovating Engineering Education

A 4TU.CEE community event to wrap up the strategic period 2022-2025/26 and look ahead to the future of innovative engineering education. Join us for a full day of engaging activities focused on the future of engineering education and the 4TU.CEE collaboration strategy where we will not only consider but also build Next Horizons together.

Registration for Next Horizons is closed. Email us if you want to join the waiting list: h.d.hartmann@tudelft.nl . We will respond as soon as possible.

In the morning, we will highlight recent achievements (2022–2026) in the themes of Challenge Based Learning, Digital Literacy, Responsible Engineering and Teaching Excellence. We will explore how to make a deeper, wider, and lasting impact with these project results.

In the afternoon, we will make a concrete start developing cross-institutional teams and project agendas around the themes of Society in Transition, Digital Learning, Professional Identity and Teaching Culture, for the 2027-2030 period focusing on:

• The engineer of the future as a responsible change agent, digital literate and self-directed
• Engineering education of the future that emphasises experiential, transformative, technology-enhanced learning environments that can proactively respond to societal change and student needs.
• Engineering educator of the future who builds a strong teaching identity, continuously works on his/her personal pedagogical development, and aims for a scholarly approach to education innovation
