CDIO
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CDIO (an acronym for Conceive — Design — Implement — Operate) is an engineering education initiative that was formally founded by Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the late 1990s. In 2000 it became an international collaboration, with top universities around the world adopting the same framework.
The collaborators maintain a dialogue about what works and what doesn't and continue to refine the project. Determining additional members of the collaboration is a selective process managed a Council comprising original members and early adopters.
The CDIO Syllabus consists of four parts[1]
- Technical Knowledge and Reasoning
- Personal and Professional Skills
- Interpersonal Skills
- CDIO
