Project Summary

The PENS project seeks to build capacities to develop a new curricula in enterprise systems engineering as a new undergraduate program, using a student-centred adaptive learning approach based on the bologna processes. The project will develop 8 courses in total and four tutorials. Also it promote entrepreneurship education. These new Pathway in Enterprise systems engineering will be deployed at the four participating partner universities, two in Palestine (P4: AQU, P5:BZU) and two in Tunisia (P7:US, P8:UM). The uniqueness of this approach, that to meet the multidisciplinary needs of the two domains (engineering and system thinking), it will develop an innovative user-centred adaptive learning to create a new curricula and enable the four universities to implement developed program within their degrees addressing variations, yet meeting their own specified key learning outcomes. The importance of enterprise systems engineering to be part of the undergraduate training as integral part of their educational skills, is critical to advance the ICT sector towards evidence-based practices, in the region, which is currently developing. These skills are essential to solidify the deeper understanding of the value and importance of enterprise engineering not only to their specialty, but also their profession, work and practice. They will promote the uptake and implementation of enterprise system engineering to become essential part of their profession as enabling mechanisms to improve the quality of ICT. Thus one key objective of PENS is to develop capacity of members of faculty in enterprise systems engineeing and create undergraduate program to ensure sustainability and lasting impact.
