The European Society for Engineering Education (SEFI) Annual Conference is a scientific conference focused on Engineering Education and the biggest event of this type in Europe. SEFI Annual Conferences offer a unique opportunity for professors, students, industry and professional organizations to exchange their views and to meet their peers and create a European network of contacts. The topics of the conferences reflect the objectives of the society and the priorities identified by its members. For 2025, the conference will focus on how engineers can be involved significantly in addressing the17 goals for sustainable development set by the United Nations. While most of these goals require engineering solutions, either directly or indirectly, social and ethical debates surrounding these issues rarely include a significant number of engineers.

The Australasian Association for Engineering Education (AAEE) is a professional organization committed to fostering excellence and innovation in engineering education.  The 36th AAEE Annual Conference has the theme "Engineering education: between the human and the digital."

This theme arises from the dichotomy that, as the world becomes more digital through technologies like generative AI, human centred skills become more important. In addition to the impact on the engineering profession, we see similar tensions in the inherently human and social processes of learning. This means that the exponential development of AI and related technologies raises many new questions for engineering educators and many questions that seem very familiar.

On this theme, the conference looks to showcase work, and facilitate conversations, about the nature of the profession and engineering education in the age of GenAI where students, industry, and educators are grappling with disruption at the same time. This ranges from changes in industry, outcomes, pedagogy, student experiences, and the increasing importance of human centred skills. As we navigate this, it is important that we use the expertise of the engineering education community to retain what works and use the opportunity to enhance our practice
