This virtual summit explored the workforce of the future for the engineering community, exploring systemic forces that will shape the future workforce as well as key leverage points and innovative strategies for confronting present and future workforce challenges. The summit discussions explored such questions as …
- Given the looming enrollment cliff facing higher education, how will the engineering community confront the ‘grand challenge’ of attracting, educating, and retaining talented individuals to meet workforce needs in the next decade?
- How can the engineering community attract and retain a disproportionate share of young people into engineering education programs and ultimately to practice?
- How can universities move beyond 20% and 15% in terms of bachelor’s degrees awarded for women and under-represented minorities in engineering education programs?
- How do we transform the culture of engineering organizations to be more welcoming to women and under-represented minorities and to embrace purpose-driven practice?
