Full Description
Using the concept of Bildung as a framework, which in late capitalism/postmodernity may be perceived to include critical knowledge, value consciousness, ethics, and social responsibility (including sustainability), this project aims to investigate the underlying aspirations, structures, and dynamics of change taking place in engineering education and practice through conversations between engineering, social sciences, and the humanities. Calling upon the spirit of philosophers on Bildung such as John Dewey, Jürgen Habermas and contemporaries, the focus of the present project is on broadening engineering education initiatives and practice that follow normative understandings of Bildung. This volume appeals to researchers and students working in philosophy, engineering, and education.
