Abstract
The industrial revolution in the past two-and-half centuries had not only increased the productivity, it had changed the economy, the society, and the history of mankind. The information and internet revolutions in the past thirty years have caused even more profound impacts on the world around us, including education.
The internet has brought the people and the world closer together. As a result, engineering and business professionals are facing similar challenges, and need to work together in this IT age. Engineering and business education need to prepare our future workforce to meet the challenges. Details will be presented and discussed in the presentation. Participation from the audience is important and will be encouraged.
