About the Journal | SEFI Journal of Engineering Education Advancement

The SEFI Journal of Engineering Education Advancement offers a route to share ideas, emerging research, experiences and innovations in the field. This peer-reviewed, open-access, online and archived journal is an official journal of SEFI, the European Society for Engineering Education.

Aims

The journal aims to support the advancement of engineering education. It welcomes exciting new innovations and ideas in a wide range of areas.

It is an official journal of the European Society for Engineering Education but with a global outlook. The journal recognises that innovation in engineering education is not constrained by borders and while some papers may have a specific European context, we welcome high quality manuscripts on exciting developments internationally.

The journal is primarily focused on learning and teaching of engineering in higher education. In addition to papers on higher education practice and approaches, high quality work of interest to the engineering education community are also of interest, such as those addressing engineering practice, lifelong learning, non-traditional entry routes and graduate outcomes.

Journal Scope

The SEFI Journal of Engineering Education Advancement welcomes appropriate submissions of innovations in practices, approaches, or ideas within the field, which will appeal and be useful to practitioners as well as researchers.

To contribute to the advancement of engineering education, the work submitted must always be novel and original. In addition, it should be deemed relevant and applicable, stimulating, tested and suitably scholarly.

Novel means that the journal is looking for manuscripts that makes a new contribution to the field. This may take the form of a traditional research paper, but highly innovative but transferable case studies, lesson or assessment approaches, student support methodologies are also welcome.

Original means that the work may not be published elsewhere by the authors or others. Manuscripts based on previously published work require significant further development.

Relevant and applicable means that papers should be interesting and useful to the readership. We are aiming in particular to attract as readers and authors those engineering academics involved in the day to day activities of teaching and learning within engineering.

The Papers submitted should therefore typically support practitioners in enhancing their own practices in education in a directly practical way and by informing the underlying approaches.

Authors are encouraged to supplement useful material such as teaching resources, assessment schemes and work sheets where this will help a reader adapt the work to enable use in their own context.

Stimulating refers to the contribution to the field. Contributions demonstrate solid reflection, critical engagement, and awareness of the work and ideas of others.

Tested and suitably scholarly means that papers must demonstrate awareness of the field and the work presented must be suitably tested and critically reviewed by the authors.
