虽然加拿大所有认可的工程专业都由同一个管理机构进行评估，但每个机构都有自己的一套期望，包括其努力的分配、教师进行的研究类型以及提供课程的方式。每个部门和项目都有自己的优势和挑战，但他们共同承担着教育未来工程师的责任。本文概述了一项描述性研究的结果，该研究考察了加拿大工程教育的三个方面：工程教育工作者所做的研究、教学和服务的平衡和类型，工程教育工作者参与工程教育研究的水平，以及本科工程专业学生在加拿大认可的工程项目中所经历的学习环境的外观和感觉。
Although all accredited engineering programs in Canada are assessed by the same governing body, each institution has its own set of expectations regarding its distribution of effort, the types of research conducted by its faculty, and the way it delivers its curriculum. Individual departments and programs each have their own strengths and challenges, but collectively they share the responsibility of educating tomorrow’s engineers.This paper presents a summary of the results of a descriptive study examining three aspects of engineering education in Canada: the balance and types of research, teaching, and service that engineering educators are doing, the level to which engineering educators are engaging with engineering education research, and the look and feel of the learning environment that undergraduate engineering students experience in accredited engineering programs in Canada.
