| dc.description.abstract | The economy of Botswana has grown rapidly since it became independent in 1966, but the
population is only 1.7 million. Engineering construction projects are of large scale. The University of Botswana offers engineering degrees in four disciplines, under programs that cover ten semesters. The particular challenges to engineering education in Botswana, as well as the structure of the present and future University of Botswana programs, are described in this paper. Emphasis is
placed on a wide range of student individual investigation and design work, and the benefits of a particular project to the student and the program are stated in an illustration. | en_US |
