摘要：Society needs innovators to solve pressing design problems, and emerging technologies drive innovation. The Integrated Engineering Program offered at the University of Western Ontario develops engineering innovators by offering an interdisciplinary engineering education with emphasis on emerging technologies and engineering design. The program incorporates design in every year, and offers students the unique opportunity to participate in large multi-year design projects as part of their formal engineering education. A survey shows that students rate these features of the program important and valuable contributors toward their career goals.
