STEM2020 - Piloting the concept of work-based learning at the University of Eswatini: A case study of the Faculty of Science and Engineering

The University of Eswatini is at the start of the strategic introduction of ‘through-work’ work-based learning programmes (Gray, 2001), supported by Glasgow Caledonian University through a Royal Academy of Engineering-funded project. This presentation will outline the differing context in Eswatini and how work-based learning concepts will be adapted to support self-regulation and lifelong learning aligned to the needs of Engineering graduates working in Eswatini companies.
