Abstract

Globalisation has created demands for engineers with competencies enabling their proactive engagement in a global industry. This demand has created pressure on institutions to design engineering programs that can produce internationalised engineers with globally mobile competencies. This paper presents a review of current research in internationalisation of engineering education, with particular focus on issues of international accreditation and global applicability. With justification of the need for an international collaboration in transforming engineering education, this review highlights concerns about the applicability of a Western accreditation discourse to African countries and the efficacy of global and regional efforts towards accreditation and globalisation. The existing systems of international accreditation and reciprocity agreements are critically reviewed and concerns for internationalisation are discussed. Published issues of accreditation in higher education in Africa are assessed and opportunities for enhancement are made. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
