In the USA, the National Science Foundation (NSF) makes substantial ftmds available for EER. Universities like Stanford, Purdue and drginia Tech have fastgrowing departments for research on engineering education. Also in Australia and Asia, the trend to strengthen engineering education through research and irmovation is manifest. The contributions of the USA (and Australia) dominate the worldwide network on Research in Engineering Education (REES). 

In a 2003 request for proposals, the US National Science Foundation (NSF) stipulated that each group of universities submitting a proposal for funding to establish a network of nanotechnology research laboratories had to indicate how it was going to explore the social and ethical implications of nanotechnology as part of its mission. ...
