Abstract

The ICEE (Innovation Center for Engineering Education) was founded in April 2004 as an educational facility in the Faculty of Engineering of Tottori University. The ICEE plans the development and training of creative professionals in all fields of engineering through Project Based Learning (PBL) programs in collaboration with local enterprises. In this report, the outline and the educational effect of the education program are described. Through PBL programs, we can give problem finding and solving abilities, self-initiative and communicative skill to the students.
