Practice oriented higher education course definitions and processes

Industrial engineering and higher education programs for engineers are difficult to harmonize because there are different points of view to consider and different demands must be coordinated. In this paper, the authors redefined their former works in definition of course model objects and course model processes in order to establish a possible object a process structure for better coordination of industrial and academic originated demands. Characteristics of higher education process are analyzed then teaching activities are identified for modeling. Following this, connective units of teaching programs are discussed and definitions for course features are concluded. Finally, project and academia specific featured courses and the related integrated task management are explained. In the reported work, recent engineering information technology in laboratory environment of engineering education is considered.
