Facing the global economic depression, we need courage and wisdom. We have to plan for the future, but rethink the past. There is no exception for engineering education. New paradigms should be developed to avoid the future failure. Having the belief of “engineering for all and engineering education for all” Total Engineering Education (TEE) advocates that engineering education be implemented in all stages of education, beginning from our children in pre-school and kindergarten programs, through high school graduation, to graduate education and continuing education. TEE should be all inclusive in content to enable the students to see both the trees and the forest of an engineering issue and is committed to the total education of the individual as a social being. Furthermore, TEE should help all people to understand the engineering basis and appreciate the impact of engineering on socio-cultural systems and recognize engineering’s ability to address the world’s complex and changing challenges.

Total engineering education in the 21st century: CDIO, TRIZ, global collaboration and blue ocean strategies Harold P. Sjursen * New York University Polytechnic Institute, 55 Broad St New York, NY 10004, USA
Abstract The reflections that follow the fundamental precepts of Total Engineering Education will be examined in the light of some contemporary circumstances related to the globalization of technology, the imperative to innovate, and the benefits of collaboration. Possible strategies for the achievement of the objectives of TEE will be suggested including the application of CDIO, TRIZ and blue ocean strategy. The issue of engineering responsibility will be kept at the center of these reflections. The discussion will be in the double context of contemporary trends in technology and east Asian traditions. Keywords: Total Engineering Education; CDIO; TRIZ; Blue ocean strategy.
