Special interest with regards to engineering education
Engineering professions as well as engineering education need a change belonging to more
interdisciplinarity, more social and political integration and more diverse groups (e.g. women and
men, people with several cultural backgrounds, ages) creating and producing for the needs of
tomorrow. The development of processes to manage this changing is one of my major tasks.

Special interest with regards to engineering education
Engineering education has to consider a well balanced composition of hard engineering and soft engineering skills. An either or solution of these two categories would certainly miss a future oriented engineering education concept. This includes solid basics in mathematics/physics/engineering fundamentals, the development of engineering skills and expertise to design and realize products and processes which serve for the needs of tomorrow, working together in interdisciplinary engineering teams, knowing about management principles. A challenge for current and future engineering education is to teach these hard and soft skills in a mutually beneficial way.

Special interest with regards to engineering education
The aims of the International Society for Engineering Education are inter alia: Improving teaching methods in technical subjects; developing practice-oriented curricula that correspond to the needs of students and employers; encouraging the use of new media in technical teaching; integrating languages and the humanities in engineering education; fostering management training for engineers; promoting environmental awareness; supporting the development of engineering education in developing countries.
My personal area of activity as scientist and university teacher is the development, application and networked use of Online Laboratories.

Special interest with regards to engineering education
Bridging the gap between the requirements of an academic training and selection process on the
one side and the competences required in a professional environment on the other side. How can we
encourage and support application-oriented, technology-interested young people that may have
difficulties with theory to successfully complete their studies? How many students that did not pass a
theory-oriented selection process could have become good engineers and master hands-on challenges?

Special interest with regards to engineering education
My primary engineering education interest centers around the development and use of advanced
on-line learning environments built upon best practices in education and the state-of-the-art in
information technology. I am currently engaged in the development and deployment of such
learning environments for pre-college, college, and graduate engineering education.
