Practice of peer-review and the innovative engineering school

Abstract

This paper approaches the need to transform the traditional engineering school into a functional, closer to the actual professional requirements, engineering school. We shall define a basic training scheme, based upon developing ones peerreview compilation and use ability. Next, we shall extrapolate to a secondary training network, part of the innovative engineering school. The structure working shall define by introducing a procedure we shall comment in depth. A case study, along with the experiment results indicate to an increased training quality for the organized professional group, an increased student responsibility and a decrease of the professors conventional involvement, as their role shifts towards mediating and training.
