An example about Problem based learning Furthermore, I think an entire program with PBL method in engineering education would be more effective than only in one or two special courses. For example, Aalborg University in Denmark uses PBL throughout its multiple engineering programs [6]. They have a common and traditional curriculum in the first year covering mathematics, physics and computer science, etc. Then in the remaining years; projects and real problems are introduced into the classroom. The projects are updated and driven by industry every year. The evaluation results showed Aalborg graduates were strong in communication, management skill and employable by enterprises, and the Aalborg dropout rate was 20-25%, which is lower than DTU, another technology university with a traditional approach.
