Fika chat about CDIO, a global framework for engineering education
Around the turn of the millennium, KTH was one of the initiators of the now global framework for engineering education called CDIO. Someone who has been involved from the beginning is KTH professor Sören Östlund. In this podcast, Sören talks about the background to CDIO, what it is and, perhaps above all, what it has meant and means for engineering education at KTH.
Based on six criteria, KTH's education will be developed and renewed. The vision that KTH will take a leadership role in the transition to a sustainable society will also be reflected in the education offered. This was established in a
policy decision (Swedish)
by the President 10 April, but what does it mean and what is the background to these six criteria? KTH's President Anders explains all in this episode.
Future Education at KTH
is a change programme with a framework that will help us to be proactive and structure our development work of KTH's education based on a long-term holistic perspective. The framework consists of 13 principles clustered in 5 areas.
We hope that you, as a teacher, employee or student, want to contribute to the framework by sharing various perspectives and new ideas.
