EIE-Surveyor

REFERENCE POINT FOR ELECTRICAL AND INFORMATION ENGINEERING IN EUROPE



Project Nr. 225997-CP-1-2005-1-FR-ERASMUS-TNPP

EIE-Surveyor is an ERASMUS thematic network which is funded by the European Commission for a three-year period (October 2005-September 2008). Launched as an answer to a call for propositions from the European Commission, the aims of the project are globally to reflect and make concrete propositions for the problem of mobility of students, readability of contents, recognition of diploma.
The project is organised as four main tasks, each responsible for an outcome of the project, together with the corresponding activities and dissemination strategy. The coordination between the tasks and the global dissemination strategy is ensured thanks to the managing team of the project.
Acting as a reference point for Electrical and Information Engineering in Europe, this project has been proposed and is achieved under the aegis of the EAEEIE (European Association for Education in Electrical and Information Engineering, www.eaeeie.org).

Objectives :
  • Reflection on generic competences and subject-specific competences in Electrical and Information Engineering (EIE)
  • Implementation of quality assessment methodologies on some educational resources available in EIE
  • Reflection and proposition of a methodology for accreditation, in order to enhance comparability and common certification procedures
  • Proposition of a census of the existing curricula in EIE in Europe, the multinational degrees, and the situation of the implementation of the Bologna-process in EIE, at the bachelor, master and PhD levels
Target groups :
  • Professional engineering associations, Life Long Learning institutions
  • Students, teachers and learners
  • Accreditation boards
Main activities :
  • Application of the TUNING methodology to EIE, to identify competences
  • Observatory on the degrees available in EIE in Europe, and state of the implementation of the Bologna-process
  • Quality assessment of some resources in EIE available through internet
  • Analysis of existing accreditation procedures, proposition of a methodology
Expected outputs :
  • Update of the monograph on the degrees and international degrees available in EIE in Europe
  • Guidelines for contents as generic competences and subject-specific competences in EIE
  • Guideline for a proposition for an accreditation methodology, together with a census on existing accreditation boards and methodology
  • Mediatheque of selected pedagogical resources available in EIE, with a quality assessment
