New way for application of engineering knowledge in higher education program

Implementation of modeling methods and representations then integrating them in increasingly virtual engineering systems provide new possibilities and challenges for product related engineering. Considering the latest developments in lifecycle management of product information, this paper gives analysis of developing methodology in virtual way of engineering. Results of this analysis are utilized in a new approach to knowledge in higher education program. Rest of the paper introduces this approach together with the related virtual background of higher education programs and possible cooperation between industrial and higher education virtual engineering systems.
