The European engineering educators podcast from SEFI brings you key insights into the minds of university researchers and practitioners who have built international reputations in the field of engineering education with knowledge and advice to share. Find out from Europe's largest network of engineering educators how engineering is evolving to address the challenges of the modern world, and develop your expertise.
Your hosts are Professor Neil Cooke (University of Birmingham) and Dr Natalie Wint (University College London).
We want to bring the frontiers of engineering education to you, regardless of your speciality, in an easy to digest format- you don't have to be an education researcher to benefit. You might be an academic teaching engineering or a related subject, an engineer who wants to keep up with the latest insights, some other professional in education, or even a student!
Based in Brussels, SEFI is the European society for engineering education, a non-profit organisation active since 1973, and Europe's largest network of engineering educators. Our mission is to improve engineering education and its image in society.

Welcome back to the podcast!
Since the start of 2023, Chat GPT, and the use of generative AI (Gen-AI) more generally, has been the topic of much discussion, advice and debate within engineering education worldwide. Despite a proliferation of guidance, awareness raising and information, there has been little empirical evidence pertaining to the impact of Gen-AI on integrity of assessment and risk of plagiarism, something which has led to confusion and duplication of work.
In this episode we speak to Sasha Nikolic (University of Wollongong), Scott Daniel (University of Technology, Sydney), and Rezwanul Haque (University of the Sunshine Coast) from the Australasian Artificial Intelligence in Engineering Education Centre (AAIEEC) Special Interest Group of the Australasian Association for Engineering Education (AAEE), who, along with other Australian engineering educators, came together to answer questions about how ChatGPT and other Gen-AI tools may affect engineering education assessment methods, and how it might be used to facilitate learning.
Join Dr. Natalie Wint (University College London) and Dr. Neil Cooke (University of Birmingham) to learn AI in the context of assessment in engineering education.
