Engineering education is undergoing great change all over the world and the pandemic has accelerated that process and raised even more questions about its efficacy. MIT launched the pilot New Engineering Education Transformation (NEET) initiative in Fall 2017 to reimagine undergraduate engineering education at MIT. This session will explore the approach NEET took to prepare students to take on major engineering challenges and develop solutions to critical social problems of the 21st century and the learnings from the process of implementing transformative educational change in an established culture and institution.
