Engineering Education: Accreditation & Graduate Global Mobility
暫譯: 工程教育：認證與畢業生全球流動性

本書詳細說明了與工程學士（榮譽）學位專業認證相關的關鍵概念、目標和流程。當代認證的背景從全球化的工程專業和高等教育的角度進行探討。書中提供了單一和雙重認證相關流程的範例，並檢視了華盛頓協議（Washington Accord）及歐洲工程教育認證網絡（European Network for Accreditation of Engineering Education）的要求。此外，還提供了如何結構化學習成果以展示符合認證標準的詳細資訊。最後幾章簡要討論了教育中使用的質量保證流程以及當前存在的國際質量排名系統。

本書將為讀者提供在工程學士（榮譽）學位背景下的以成果為基礎的教育的詳細檢視。本書的一個關鍵特點是不同認證標準的並排比較，以及對相對較新的雙重認證現象的深入討論。

本書旨在提供對工程教育中認證的清晰解釋和探討，將使參與認證過程的從業者受益。

Dr. Firoz Alam is a Professor and Program Director in the School of Aerospace, Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering at RMIT University. He completed his PhD from RMIT in 2000. He completed his Master's degree combined with Bachelor's degree in aeronautical engineering from Riga Civil Aviation Engineers Institute, Latvia in 1991. Prof. Alam's research interest includes aerodynamics of road vehicles, aircraft and trains, sports aerodynamics, energy and power generation, noise and vibration. He has strong research track record in continuous improvement of engineering education pedagogy, quality assurance, accreditation and transnational education. He was the recipient of RMIT University Teaching Award. Prof. Alam is actively involved in delivering and managing engineering programs both onshore and offshore. He has over 200 peer reviewed publications that include scholarly book, book chapters, journal articles and conference papers. His publications on engineering education include transnational education, program quality assurance and accreditation, dual accreditations, technology enabled engineering pedagogy and education design, outcome-based and problem-based learning, intensive mode teaching and postgraduate supervision.

Dr. Alexandra Kootsookos is Senior Lecturer at RMIT University's School of Aerospace, Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering. She received her PhD in Materials Engineering at the University of Queensland, Australia in 1995. Thereafter, she worked with the Cooperative Research Centre for Polymer Blends, where she was involved in a number of projects relating to the durability of composite materials. Since joining RMIT University in 1999, she has been heavily involved in the teaching instruction of undergraduate students within the School of Aerospace, Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering. She has used a blended learning environment within this context since 2000. From 2004-2009 she was the Program Director for the Advanced Manufacturing and Mechatronics program and subsequently she has been the Year Coordinator with a particular focus on transitional issues and program structure, quality assurance and accreditation of engineering degrees. Dr. Kootsookos published over half dozen research papers and book chapters on engineering program accreditation, dual accreditation and transnational education.

費羅茲·阿拉姆博士是RMIT大學航空、機械與製造工程學院的教授及課程主任。他於2000年在RMIT完成博士學位，並於1991年在拉脫維亞里加民航工程師學院獲得航空工程的碩士學位及學士學位。阿拉姆教授的研究興趣包括道路車輛、飛機和火車的空氣動力學、運動空氣動力學、能源與發電、噪音與振動。他在工程教育教學法的持續改進、品質保證、認證及跨國教育方面擁有強大的研究記錄。他曾獲得RMIT大學教學獎。阿拉姆教授積極參與在岸及離岸的工程課程的授課與管理。他擁有超過200篇經過同行評審的出版物，包括學術書籍、書籍章節、期刊文章及會議論文。他在工程教育方面的出版物涵蓋跨國教育、課程品質保證與認證、雙重認證、技術驅動的工程教學法與教育設計、以成果為基礎及以問題為基礎的學習、密集模式教學及研究生指導。

亞歷山德拉·庫茲索科斯博士是RMIT大學航空、機械與製造工程學院的高級講師。她於1995年在澳大利亞昆士蘭大學獲得材料工程博士學位。此後，她在聚合物混合物合作研究中心工作，參與多個與複合材料耐久性相關的項目。自1999年加入RMIT大學以來，她在航空、機械與製造工程學院的本科生教學中積極參與。自2000年以來，她在這一背景下使用混合學習環境。從2004年至2009年，她擔任先進製造與機電一體化課程的課程主任，隨後成為年級協調員，特別專注於過渡問題、課程結構、工程學位的品質保證與認證。庫茲索科斯博士發表了超過七篇有關工程課程認證、雙重認證及跨國教育的研究論文和書籍章節。
