The rapid technological change and convergence in the globally competitive economy are causing current and future upheaval in job markets. A paradigm shift in engineering education is required in response to these job market uncertainties to mitigate unemployment and prepare engineers to tackle problems requiring a convergence of disciplines. Individuals may have to change career paths more than one time in their lifetime. However, a fast transition is not practically possible. To be competitive in professional life, engineers will need to have a novel set of skills and talent centered around creativity, innovation, and system integration. We envision integrating generic skills and knowledge to shape human-technology partnerships, improve professional performance, increase career longevity and job satisfaction, and facilitate life-long knowledge and skills acquisition for the convergent future.
