Abstracts are invited that address the themes for the conference:

• Inspiring young people to study engineering; outreach activity
• Engaging and retaining engineering students in their studies including curriculum development
• Assessment and feedback
• Learning spaces and environment
• Technology-supported learning; use of VLEs
• Working with employers
• Preparing the engineers of the future including sustainable development, internationalisation, globalisation, ethics and values
• Graduate skills
• Continuing professional development of practising engineers
• Work based learning

Submission Guidelines

A variety of formats will be used for the conference sessions: Submission guidelines (updated 19.04.2012). Final Papers and Workshop Overviews should be submitted via EasyChair at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ee2012 as an MS Word Document using the template provided.

Registration

Registration for the conference will be opening soon.

Engineering Students

We welcome submissions that are authored or co-authored by students studying engineering or working on engineering education research projects and some sponsorship to cover conference fees for students will be available. Please contact the conference organisers to find out more.

Peer Review Process

All submissions (at both abstract and full paper stage) will be reviewed by at least 2 members of the conference peer-review panel. The panel will be asked to consider whether the paper provides sufficient evidence that the presentation will be of interest to the target audience of the conference and the contribution it may make to the overall aims and themes of the conference.

Proceedings will be published with an ISBN, by the Centre for Engineering and Design Education. The conference fee includes an electronic copy of the proceedings for delegates. Full papers and workshop overviews will also be available before the conference to download from the conference website.

Peer Review Guidelines for final papers and workshop outlines are available here: Peer review guidelines.
