Transformation process in engineering education: A holistic approach

This paper presents the salient aspects of a holistic approach to engineering education. At the heart of holistic education is the basic premise that education addresses the various dimensions of the personality of the whole person, i.e., physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual personalities of the individual. Transformation is a movement that is primarily from being to becoming. Holistic education values and encourages learning both inside and outside the classroom, enables the development of confident, well-rounded graduates who are prepared to serve as the next generation of creative thinkers and leaders.
