This prompts the question: ¿Is the present  engineering curriculum structure the most effective  structure in which to prepare engineering graduates  for work in the 21st century?''  In order to  investigate this question the current curriculum in  tertiary institutions was examined.  First, the  philosophy of an engineering education was  determined to establish what exactly an engineering  education is.  This philosophy was then used to  determine which material is legitimate to include in  an engineering curriculum and which material should  be left out.  Second, theories of teaching and  learning were examined to determine whether the  engineering curriculum is being taught in the most  effective way.  Third, the theories of curriculum  structure and development were studied to determine  whether the engineering curriculum is structured in  accordance with the latest ideas in curriculum  design.  Finally, conclusions were drawn about  current curriculum structure and whether it complies  with modern pedagogical theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838329758\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAn Analysis of Electrical Engineering Programs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838329758","offer_id":39499080138845,"sku":"9783838329758","price":79.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/6e21a647-d611-4da2-8c91-14371545e4f4.jpg?v=1768976468","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/engineering-studies-von-nigel-shepstone","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
