The higher education landscape in South Africa is fraught with challenges inherited from the legacies of apartheid, but also with abundant opportunities.

Understanding the nature and the nurture of expert performance in design has been a central mission of the Design Thinking Research Symposium (DTRS) series. The formats of DTRS meetings are unique in their approach to fostering an international community of design thinking scholars, sharing and synthesizing work across disciplines, and identifying and promoting necessary further research. These meetings have resulted in a substantial set of influential and field-shaping publications in books and journals.

U.S. global competitiveness in innovation depends heavily on successful technology transfer processes.

This talk explores divergent ways of being technical practitioners in the United States from World War II through the 1970s in order to make sense of today’s landscape of engineering education reform.
