Abstract

This paper presents how Problem Based Learning is integrated in Industrial Engineering higher education provided by the Industrial Engineering Laboratory at TU Dortmund University in Germany. After pointing out the necessary asset of competences for Industrial Engineers as the intended learning outcome, Problem Based Learning is presented as one appropriate concept for competence development in higher education in engineering. The implementation of this explicit course design and its advantages is shown by explaining the specific course example “Workplace Design” in detail, which is carried out in a hands-on laboratory - the Industrial Engineering Laboratory.
