The President illustrates the challenges facing engineers at a number of interfaces between established disciplines, experiences and structures. An account of influences on his own early education and training are followed by descriptions of his fascination with the characteristics of thin films of lubricant at the interfaces between moving parts of machine components and body masses in the human frame. Developments in engineering education, particularly in relation to the promotion of interdisciplinary subjects and the opportunities for students to interface with overseas institutions in an international form of engineering education are outlined. The important interfaces between industry, the universities and the professional institutions in relation to education, training and research are identified as essential foundations for the promotion of a research and knowledge led competitive industrial base for the twenty-first century.

ABSTRACT Objective: To understand the education/training of nurses working in an intensive care unit. Method: Case study with qualitative approach, with an intentional sample. Data collection and analysis used different research techniques, mainly document analysis, interview and field observation. Results: The data highlights feelings of well-being, satisfaction and motivation as important for education and training in a work context. Some organizational practices seem to promote interpersonal relationships and, consequently, increase the willingness of these professionals to adopt a reward perspective regarding continuing education and training, establishing a close relationship between the formal, the non-formal and the informal. Final Consideration: The attractiveness of this organization is related to the valorization and recognition that it can offer to the professionals. There is a reciprocity between a hospital that endorses up-to-date care and professionals who seek scientific evidence.

Abstract In Europe, agroecology has become the center of many debates that animate political and professional arenas, particularly regarding the definition and scope of the concept itself. This paper attempts to understand the ways that the term agroecology is conceptualized by different participantsparticipants and how these concepts circulate so as to explore the interests at stake in the institutionalization of agroecology within the research and education institutions of Europe. We address the core research question of: what dynamics emerge in the networks of European stakeholders of agroecology? By combining different approaches of institutionalization based on network and discourse analysis, we study the dynamics of research, education and training organizations. We identify 10 different concepts of agroecology, distributed among 103 organizations. The significant difference that has been observed between the agroecological concepts in research and those in education/training emphasizes the gap between these two disciplines. The latter support a more political, transdisciplinary and holistic view of agroecology when compared to the former. Moreover, collaboration among European agroecology stakeholders is limited in both research and education/training. We also found that in most cases, collaboration between scholars does not guarantee a shared notion of agroecology, and conversely, sharing the same notion of agroecology does not assure collaboration. This led us to question the feasibility of institutionalizing agroecology and the missing link between a shared vision and the collective mobilization of stakeholders around a strong agroecology programme.
