Abstract
Conference Title: 2019 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON) Conference Start Date: 2019, April 8 Conference End Date: 2019, April 11 Conference Location: Dubai, United Arab Emirates The present work presents a system engineering approach towards bridging the gap between traditional and modern engineering in Shaqra University. In this era of fast paced advancement in science & technology, preparing versatile engineering graduates to face the unpredictably growing industry is a challenging task for higher education systems. The paper highlights the need for innovation in technical stream to cope with ever expanding and demanding futuristic engineering. The effectiveness of the present approach is demonstrated through a case study conducted in civil engineering department at Shaqra University. An assessment study was carried out for graduating students to assess progress of our proposed approach and hence implementing given recommendations for further development.
