Why Join the GEDC?
GEDC Membership has been growing steadily since its inception in May 2008.  Why are deans from all over the world joining this community?
 
GEDC members are the first to know about opportunities to discuss critical questions and issues in engineering education, such as:

• What challenges have you faced as an engineering education leader in the face of globalization and ever-changing technological advances? 
• How can deans develop effective partnerships for engineering schools?
• How does the definition of a successful engineering educator differ from culture to culture? 
• How can deans foster the mobility of engineering students?

 
GEDC members and leadership committees directly create the "international engineering education agenda" by developing content for all GEDC meetings, which regularly attract engineering deans, engineering education and engineering industry representatives.
 
GEDC connects engineering stakeholders from all parts of the world, in order to bring a diversity of perspectives to the discussion.  GEDC meetings also create a great and rare opportunity to network with like-minded educators and industry representatives who are excited about sharing models of success in engineering education.
