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!
Engineering education is home to many different learning approaches including problem, project, and challenge-based learning, as well as studio learning. At the same time, technological advances mean that there is an increasing focus on virtual learning, and collaboration across geographical contexts. The wide variety of approaches at our disposable necessitates choices to be made regarding what, and how, ideas will be incorporated, and indeed at what scale.
In this episode we speak to Jorge Membrillo-Hernández from the Technological University of Monterrey. Jorge has a wealth of experience in using a variety of teaching and assessment methods in many different contexts. Jorge incorporates challenge-based learning (CBL) at a programme level, with challenges drawn from both local and global partners. He is particularly interested in socially oriented interdisciplinary STEM education, and COIL (collaborative on-line learning classroom). He has over 100 publications with over 2000 citations and an h-index of 26) and is probably the most published author focusing on CBL within engineering!
Join Dr. Natalie Wint (University College London) and Dr. Neil Cooke (University of Birmingham) to learn about an institution wide approach to CBL in a Mexican context.
