Bridging the Employability Gap for Engineering Students

Engineering students are trailing behind in key digital skills that employers need, such as software engineering, statistical programming and data management, according to newly published research from Coursera that benchmarks skill levels of learners from 4,000 colleges and universities. Find out how engineering departments are adopting online learning to prepare students for the workplace, implement blended classrooms, and support lifelong learning for their students and faculty. Join Raghav Gupta, the Managing Director of India and APAC at Coursera, for a 1-hour discussion about: 

  • What skills engineering students need to develop to become job-ready
  • How universities can use Coursera’s insights to support decision-making
  • How universities are currently pioneering the future of blended learning
