In certain jobs they are hired for their design and new innovative powers to create new fields to their companies in competitive businesses. Therefore, engineers should be graduated to handle their actual responsibilities. After realising some deficits in engineering education, some engineering faculties have reshaped their education and covered more design and problem solving activities. Graduating engineers in changing world in technology and population requires “engineers” who can meet technological and social rule changes. They should have deep knowledge in their subjects and creative design abilities.
