Abstract
Engineering education in Africa is faced with formidable challenges, ranging from poor
funding to inadequate facilities, poor staff training, and weak linkages to the international engineering community, insufficient ICT facilities and infrastructure. The African Engineering Education Association was established in 2006. It aims at stimulating engineering education and addressing the inadequacies in Africa in order to fully develop the potential of engineers to contribute to African sustainable development.
