The International Conference on Transformations in Engineering Education (ICTIEE) is one of the signature programs of the IUCEE Foundation. The Twelfth International Conference of Transformations in Engineering Education (ICTIEE-2025), will be held from January 8 to 10, 2025. This signature program of the IUCEE Foundation is held annually to promote sharing and collaboration among leaders, faculty, and students from various educational institutions. This event features expert talks from distinguished leaders in academia and industry, offering a platform for building a professional network. ICTIEE 2025 aims to connect global experts and passionate educators to enhance excellence in engineering education. The quality and quantity of research articles submitted to ICTIEE have consistently increased yearly.

THEME

Reshaping Engineering Education for GenAI Era

ICTIEE 2025 will be hosted at Vallurupalli Nageswara Rao Vignana Jyothi Institute of Engineering and Technology (VNR VJIET) & Vignana Jyothi Institute of Management (VJIM), Hyderabad, Telangana, India. The theme of ICTIEE 25 is “Reshaping Engineering Education for GenAI Era”.

In the era of GenAI, industries, economies, and societies are experiencing rapid transformation. As Gen AI continues to evolve, engineering education must adapt to prepare the next generation of engineers for a landscape dominated by intelligent systems. A shift in pedagogy and learning styles is the need of the hour to cultivate adaptable minds capable of leveraging AI technologies along with creativity and ethical reasoning essential for sustainable innovation. Institutions must devise open-minded and flexible solutions to accept and adapt to challenges with progress. Curriculum and assessment must be designed to prepare students to thrive in an AI-driven world and contribute positively to society. Avenues will be opened for student entrepreneurs and innovators capitalizing on AI’s capabilities to develop personalized products and services, optimize business processes, and address societal challenges. GenAI has its challenges, and this year, we intend to explore the perspectives with research and practice papers on the aligned area.

Call for Papers

The IUCEE Foundation, VNR VJIET & VJIM invite faculty and other professionals to submit full-length original, unpublished research and practice papers that demonstrate contemporary research in engineering education in the following tracks, which focuses on the theme of the conference by August 15, 2024. Following the double-blind review process, accepted papers will be invited for presentations at the conference. Additionally, the selected and presented papers will be forwarded to the Journal of Engineering Education (JEET) for publication in a Special Issue.

Submission Guidelines

Instructions for Authors:

• Prospective authors are invited to submit full-length papers on their original and unpublished research works in the tracks specified.
• The length of the paper shall be 4-8 pages with good clarity of the content (text, images and equations).
• The authors must follow the manuscript template provided while preparing the papers. Click here to download the template.
• The authors need to specify the track and sub-track in the submitted manuscript. Refer to the website for the track and sub-track details.
• The paper submitted must be submitted in PDF format.
• All paper submissions are subject to a double-blind review process. Hence, any information identifying the authors or their institution should be anonymized while submitting the paper.
• Paper submitted will be desk rejected in the following cases:
  • Non-compliance with double-blind submission policies
  • Similarity index above 15%
  • Out-of-conference scope submission
• Submitted papers will undergo a double-blind review process, assessing novelty, significance, scientific rigor, clarity, and quality.
• Submitted papers must not have been published as copyrighted material nor be submitted for consideration for publication as copyrighted material in print or electronic form.
• If selected for an in-person presentation, at least one of the authors must register for the conference to present their paper during the conference.
• Manuscripts of the selected papers will be forwarded to the Journal of Engineering Education Transformations (JEET) for publication in a Special Issue.  (Scopus indexed Journal http://www.journaleet.in/).
• JEET will take at least three months to publish the paper in a special issue after the conference, and the period for Scopus Indexing is 6-12 months.
• Paper submission via email is not encouraged.

Guidelines to Preserve Anonymity for “Double-Blind” Submissions:

• Ensure that the title page of your PDF submission does not include authors' names and affiliations. If your paper is accepted, this information will be added to the final camera-ready copy. During submission, provide author details only on the registration page. The PDF file should not contain any author information.
• Exclude any acknowledgements that may reveal authors' identities or funding sources from the PDF submission for review. If your paper is accepted, this information will be included in the final camera-ready copy.
• Avoid including project titles or names that could potentially lead to the identification of authors through a web search engine.
• Name your files carefully. The source file names (e.g., “Rajesh.pdf”) are often embedded in the final output as accessible comments.
• Use care in referring to your previous works as related works. Do not omit references to provide anonymity, as this leaves the reviewer unable to grasp the context. Instead, you can reference your past work in the third person format, just like any other piece of related work by another author. For example, instead of “Recently, we have proposed a new protocol [9] …,” sentences in the spirit of “Recently, the authors in [9] have proposed a new protocol …” may be used.
• Papers with the same title and abstract should not be posted on a public website, such as arxiv.org, or shared via public mailing lists or communicated to other conferences/journals/publications.
