In our era of the technology-enabled entrepreneurship and technology-driven innovation, engineering education has a key role to promote a sustainable model for educating leaders and for creating new contexts for experimental and experiential learning. One of the key challenges modern Engineering Education faces is the fast integration of knowledge to curricula and the design of participatory and student-centered learning models. The nature of engineering problems requires a variety of skills and competencies that have to be developed. This editorial serves as a position paper for the role of ICTs for the provision of personalized learning in Engineering Education. The main contribution is the provision of an integrated model which requires five success factors as prerequisites for the design of any STEM Curriculum and more specifically of engineering curricula.
