The International Society for Engineering Education IGIP is an organisation which promotes professionalisation and innovations in engineering education and attaches international importance to the respective efforts.
Its target is faculty, not students.
The society is embedded in an international network of engineering educators. This network is flourishing every year at its international conference, but also in the dealings of their working groups. Within this network of IGIP all topics of engineering education are dealt with, but especially the improvement of teaching styles in technical subjects. As the qualification framework constantly changes, both teachers and students have to be prepared for the rapidly changing industrial and business world. Due to its international network IGIP can provide hints to this topic.

IGIP honours the educational qualities of faculty by rewarding an International Engineering Educator Award to everyone who has gone through an additional level of education. By passing the IGIP curriculum as proposed by IGIP in any accredited institution worldwide, IGIP states that a given engineering educator with an ING-PAED IGIP title has all the competencies needed to teach at the state of the art with the best available teaching technologies.
