One of the conference objectives is networking, and making new acquaintances from a similar or the same professional environment, and research interests. A suitable contribution is an abstract in the thematic area of engineering and technology which reflects your research, and it is prepared in a convenient way for the presentation at the conference. Optionally, you can develop your work in the form of full paper and submit it to one of our accompanying journals (Engineering Review: https://lnkd.in/g683SfEA and Pomorstvo - Scientific Journal of Maritime Research: https://lnkd.in/gMzifeAN), indexed in WOSCC and Scopus citation databases. The conference has no registration or other costs, and the official language is English. The 8th edition of the MFC event is jointly organised by the Faculty of Maritime Studies, Faculty of Civil Engineering and Faculty of Engineering, University of Rijeka. You are more than welcome to join us. Please bear in mind that the deadline for registration, i.e. abstract submission is 𝟏 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐲, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒. Forward this invitation to your interested peers, and to all to whom it may concern. See you in September! #workworkwork #research #skills #studentsconference #phdconference #facultyofmaritimestudies #uniri #pfri #gradri #riteh #withknowledgewesailtheworld

💡 Did you know that ZIGURAT's BIM master's students have a direct path to University of Derby PhD programmes? 🌟 This means that our students can validate their MSc with the University of Derby. Upon successful completion, they are eligible for direct access to the PhD programme, skipping intermediate years of study. ⬇ Learn more here.

Since the dawn of universities, their mission has extended far beyond merely facilitating student learning. Universities have profoundly influenced societies by generating and spreading knowledge. Today, the American University of the Middle East (AUM) takes a significant stride toward embodying this pivotal role by embracing the additional identity of a publisher. With the announcement of its scientific peer-reviewed journal, "Advances in Engineering and Multidisciplinary Knowledge," AUM solidifies its commitment to becoming a beacon of knowledge. As Antoine de Saint-Exupéry once said, "As for the future, your task is not to foresee it, but to enable it." AUM demonstrates this principle with each endeavor it undertakes. https://lnkd.in/d6mpQPEQ

I had the opportunity to participate in the Week of Education, presenting a poster on Challenge-Based Learning (CBL), an innovative teaching method being utilized at @ECIU University and beyond. 🔍 What did we investigate? We explored the usefulness of the CBL approach for a distance Premaster. 🔧 How did we investigate? We treated it like a challenge, combining the CBL approach with the ADDIE model for course development. 💡 Key Insights: **Engage:** - how to tackle authentic problems and real-world challenges in a premaster. - how to foster self-directed student learning through reflection, documentation, and sharing. - how to involve stakeholders. **Investigate:** - Emphasize constructive alignment, starting with intended outcomes and aligning teaching and assessment accordingly. - Aim for societal impact, highlighting the importance of communication, teamwork, negotiation, and student-centered learning skills. - Use differentiated assessments, each with its own intermediate formative and final summative evaluations. - Implement personal development plans and portfolios with concept mapping. **Act:** - Ensure accessibility for all by offering a distance course. - Delivere core knowledge in a focused, non-integrated manner. - Include mandatory courses in basic statistics, academic skills, and research skills. - Chose climate adaptation as the challenge to integrate, activate, and apply knowledge. - Employe innovative assessment methods. 🌟 Usefulness of CBL: - Amplifies the impact of our program by fostering societal change through real-life applications. - Prepares students for the master’s program by enhancing self-regulation, activating pre-knowledge, and preventing fragmentation of learning.

Everything started here a month ago, when I first visited the Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi / Middle East Technical University campus. Walking around the METU grounds, I felt an immediate connection and knew this was where I wanted to start my journey in City and Regional Planning. The decision was clear—this is where I’ll learn to shape the cities of the future. I’m excited to begin this new chapter, eager to dive into my studies, and looking forward to the challenges and opportunities ahead. #metu #odtu #NewBeginnings #CityPlanning #UrbanPlanning #FutureCities #Sustainability #UrbanDevelopment #UniversityLife

Engineering opportunity in Australia

Last weekend, I attended the 2024 ASCE Metropolitan Section Student Symposium! I represented Stony Brook University in the Paper Competition. I wanna give a special thanks to this year's judges, Radhi Majmudar, Kancheepuram N. Gunalan and Robin A. Kemper, and my incredible chapter for the amazing support they have given me. Shout out to Stony Brook University for hosting this event. 🎉 Excited to share my experience as a presenter where I discussed the vital role of ethics in engineering, particularly focusing on the principles outlined in ASCE's Code of Ethics and how we can integrate AI in Civil Engineering. As civil engineers, our responsibility extends beyond technical expertise. We're entrusted with creating safe, resilient, and sustainable infrastructure while ensuring equitable participation and considering societal needs. However, with the advent of technology like AI, ethical considerations become even more crucial. The potential of AI to revolutionize engineering is undeniable, yet we must carefully evaluate its ethical implications. How do we ensure that AI aligns with our ethical responsibilities, especially concerning safety, equity, and societal well-being? For those interested, I've attached my presentation. I also attached some pictures from different events.📸 #ASCE #EngineeringEthics #AIinEngineering
