  • Webinar Time

    1:00 PM – 2:00 PM (GMT-06:00) Central Time (US & Canada)

Webinar Overview

To truly learn engineering fundamentals, students need to experience them by doing theory, design, and experimentation all at the same time.
 
The University of Virginia redesigned its fundamentals curriculum to implement a more hands-on, project-based approach to education that has resulted in negative attrition, vastly improved concept comprehension, and an increase in departmental national ranking by 16 positions.
 
Watch and learn:
How UVA implemented a curriculum redesign to increase concept inventory pass rate by 15%
What type of student engagement is needed to reverse attrition in the ECE department
How improved electronics fundamentals courses have positively impacted the complexity and sophistication in capstone design projects
