Smart structures technology in education

摘要：

This paper summarizes recent education activities in smart structures technology.One of the motivations for these education activities is to prepare the next-generation engineers with the cutting-edge technology,for which they may see broad application in their professional practice.The scope of smart structures education is first introduced.The result of a recent international survey of students in US,China,Korea,and Japan on smart structures technology development is next described.The survey result discloses some important information about students’ understanding of and their interests in smart structures technology development and application.Lastly,this paper also describes the achievements made by engineering education professionals as presented in a special education session of SMSST07 Conference.
