Getting the Classroom Ready to Face Industry 4.0's Challenges
One of the biggest challenges of the imminent arrival of the 4.0 industry is knowing how to prepare for it. In ABET, a nonprofit, non-governmental organization, they prepare students to tackle this new industry's challenges providing them with technology tools and exposing them to programs constructed to guarantee that they're prepared to ensure quality, precision, and safety in the global workforce.
In this episode, we talk with Michael Milligan, Executive Director and CEO of ABET. Michael is also an Engineering Educator, an International R&D, and Military Veteran. He holds a B.S in Electrical Engineering from Michigan State University, an MBA from Western New England University, an MSE from the University of Massachusetts, and a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Texas.
We talked about Michael's background and how he got to be part of ABET. Michael also shared ABET's role in preparing students and employers for Industry 4.0, their concerns, and how they deal with them. We also discussed how ABET establishes its criteria to measure students' progress in their programs. In addition, we talked about inclusion and diversity, non-degree credentials becoming popular among learners, and ABET's role in that.
