Human-Centred Engineering
This page outlines EWB Australia's Human-Centred Engineering (HCE) Approach, a new approach for structuring and practicing engineering project work, education and capacity building at Engineers Without Borders Australia (EWB). It aims to present a common language for discussing solutions development, and a new, tailored, version of Human-Centred Design (now termed HCE) to specifically fit the work that EWB undertakes.
EWB Australia's Human-Centred Engineering Approach contains the following elements, which are demonstrated in the diagram.
- Knowledge Sets - learn about the key knowledge sets required develop a solid foundation for effective project work
- Guiding Principles - our approach is underpinned by this set of guiding prinsiples
- Design Process -
- Collaborative Styles
- Tools & Techniques
A detailed description of EWB Australia's Human-Centred Engineering Approach and an associated student guide can be accessed through the EWB Technology or Research Challenges.
