NSF CAREER award recipient to study work practices of global engineering professionals

Aditya Johri , an assistant professor with Virginia Tech's engineering education department, has won a $400,000 National Science Foundation Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award to study work practices of global engineering professionals.
It is Johri's (http://www.enge.vt.edu/People/faculty/Profiles/johri.html) hope that his research will advance understanding of how engineers work on teams spread across the world using information technology, and lead to insights that can help educators better prepare future engineers. Such international collaboration in the classroom can transform how engineering students are educated, Johri said.
