    Range of Problem Solving (DP) : in The Context of Both Graduate Attributes and Professional Competencies

    Uploaded by

    iot project
    The document describes the characteristics of well-defined engineering problems and activities. It provides 7 descriptors for problem solving (DP1-DP7) and 5 descriptors for engineering activities (NA1-NA5). Some key points: - Well-defined engineering problems can be solved through standard approaches, involve limited stakeholders, and are discrete components. - They require both theoretical and practical knowledge in a sub-discipline, but not extensive research. - Well-defined engineering activities involve limited resources, interactions between technical issues, use of existing processes, and locally important consequences. They require familiarity with standard procedures.

    Range of Problem Solving(DP)

    In the context of both Graduate Attributes and Professional Competencies:


    Well-defined Engineering Problems have characteristic DP1 and some or
    Attribute
    all of DP2 to DP7:
    DP1: Cannot be resolved without extensive practical knowledge as reflected
    Depth of Knowledge Required
    in DK5 and DK6 supported by theoretical knowledge defined in DK3 and DK4
    DP2: Involve several issues, but with few of these exerting conflicting
    Range of conflicting requirements
    constraints
    Depth of analysis required DP3: Can be solved in standardised ways

    DP4: Are frequently encountered and thus familiar to most practitioners in the
    Familiarity of issues
    practice area
    Extent of applicable codes DP5: Are encompassed by standards and/or documented codes of practice

    Extent of stakeholder involvement and


    DP6: Involve a limited range of stakeholders with differing needs
    conflicting requirements

    Interdependence DP7: Are discrete components of engineering

    Knowledge profile (DK)
    A Dublin Accord programme provides:

    DK1: A descriptive, formula-based understanding of the natural sciences applicable in a sub-discipline

    DK2: Procedural mathematics, numerical analysis, statistics applicable in a sub-discipline

    DK3: A coherent procedural formulation of engineering fundamentals required in an accepted sub-discipline

    DK4: Engineering specialist knowledge that provides the body of knowledge for an accepted sub-discipline

    DK5: Knowledge that supports engineering design based on the techniques and procedures of a practice area

    DK6: Codified practical engineering knowledge in recognised practice area.

    DK7: Knowledge of issues and approaches in engineering technician practice: ethics, financial, cultural, environmental

    Range of Engineering Activities(NA)
    Well-defined activities means (engineering) activities or projects that have
    Preamble
    some or all of the following characteristics:

    NA1: Involve a limited range of resources (and for this purpose resources includes
    Range of resources
    people, money, equipment, materials, information and technologies)

    NA2: Require resolution of interactions between limited technical and engineering


    Level of interactions
    issues with little or no impact of wider issues

    NA3: Involve the use of existing materials techniques, or processes in modified or


    Innovation
    new ways

    Consequences to society and the


    NA4: Have consequences that are locally important and not far-reaching
    environment

    NA5: Require a knowledge of practical procedures and practices for widely-applied


    Familiarity
    operations and processes
