Lately the government has produced many documentations which analyzed higher education legislation and which maps out the future of higher education. These documents strongly follow the teaching strategies focusing in particular on the e-learning strategies and the increased need for online training. These documents include specific agenda relating to the training and preparation of teachers, the...
The new academic year in the Hungarian higher education, from September 2017, has to produce a new curriculum for all departments. These new teaching strategies must be in line with Training and delivering strategies. The expectations are widely ranged, we have to fit the high theoretical expectation requirements for employers, as well as businesses, the so called “Z” generation. These programs are...
In architecture, in special tasks of industrial robotics applications, in navigation and control systems of military technology, in solution for manipulation problems of space exploration in many cases we have to deal with definition, measurement of specified points of space. From measurement technology point of view, it is regarded as a classical solution to solve a problem by application of calculation...
People in their 30s–40s are already used to changes and they are open for retraining in order to be more market able. We are not introducing anything new by saying that in today sigh demanding jobs, the schools are not only providing the knowledge necessary to be able to carry out a particular jib, but schools are also responsible for developing skills which will help the students to face and solve...

One of the main challenges at definition methodology, planning, and configuration of an engineering course is recent dramatic change of engineering methodology at leading industrial industries. Engineering systems are applied to integrate all engineering activities for entire lifecycle of industrial products. At the same time, engineering was tailored to multidisciplinary structure of recent product...
Development of engineering systems brought great changes in lifecycle modeling of products. These changes widened the area of model definition, made engineering processes more conform to new demands at communication with engineers, enhanced representation of knowledge, and resulted smart functions of product model such as self adaptive characteristic. It is inevitable that development of model based...
Modernization requires high quality teaching, which provides the platform for lifelong learning combining organized training and self-development in person or in a virtual form. The basic function of adult teaching was to supplement the missing theoretical information, however today the tendency has changed. Many people want to have higher qualifications which develops their basic training, others...
The first decade of this century brought paradigm change in product centered engineering. As result of a long integration process, the new paradigm of product lifecycle management established modeling methodology which is suitable for robust and efficient management of product information for wide range of engineering activities. This paper introduces an analysis of the new paradigm from the point...
Massachusetts's Institute of Technology was the first university to provide web based university and postgraduate courses, in 2002. These courses were available on OpenCourseWare bases, which was open to anyone. The goal for the next 10 years was to provide as many online courses as possible also easily accessible to everyone. While the focus was more on the “e” part of learning, slowly the accent...
Implementation of the new paradigm product lifecycle management (PLM) essentially changed work of engineers. At the same time, engineering with multidisciplinary products demanded PLM. PLM brought experience and expertise based knowledge driven product representation. It integrated huge amount information about product objects, processes, activities, analyses, methodologies, equipment, devices, and...
Implementation of modeling methods and representations then integrating them in increasingly virtual engineering systems provide new possibilities and challenges for product related engineering. Considering the latest developments in lifecycle management of product information, this paper gives analysis of developing methodology in virtual way of engineering. Results of this analysis are utilized...
More and more adults return to school, they chose courses from a variety of universities. Some chose further training because they want to change their jobs, others because they need a degree to progress in their carriers. Worldwide this tendency was speed as MOOC concept. "The New York Times" named 2012 the year of MOCC. The MOOC expression was created by Dave Cormier and Bryan Alexander...
Changed engineering activities from conventional methods in descriptive product representations to self adaptive contextual lifecycle configured product models needed continuous and relevant changes of higher education curriculums and programs. Currently, change between old and new generations of industrial engineering technology brings need for teaching of new problem solving process both structurally...
Engineering for products has been changed dramatically. In the leading industries, the conventional way of engineering will be over soon. Engineers define products in large teams including high number of fully integrated subsidiaries in virtual product information environments at leading industries. Virtual engineering systems accumulate knowledge and engineering results for decades of experience...
In this article I shall analyses the effects of virtual learning in higher education. I shall be looking at the benefits and obstacles of choosing the best strategy.
In the past decade, the development of communication and information representations in IT has demanded a complete rethinking of engineering activities. Quick development changed the work of engineers dramatically. This paper makes an attempt to summarize key characteristics of the changed engineering activities and systems in order to identify demanded changes of higher education course concepts...
Engineering systems include computation intelligence and knowledge representations with dynamically developing theoretical, methodological, and systemic background. This means that the wished case study and project based education of engineers can be extended to theory, methodology, and systemic parts of curriculum. A new requirement is to bring not only originally laboratory hours but also lectures...
As a continuous development of former results in teaching of engineering using advanced computer systems, this paper is an attempt to contribute to education of engineers by an analysis and discussion of multi-discipline representation of theory and practice. A new method is introduced, explained and discussed to integrate a formerly published course modeling and a course model evaluation method with...
Application of advanced computer methods, tools, and systems revealed new demands for the education of engineers in university courses. This paper analyses the new integrated style of engineering activities where increasing proportion of product prototyping is done in virtual environments. For engineering, arsenal of modeling and simulation tools is available in virtual prototyping. For higher education,...
