The ECEE is structured upon the technical skills of
computer engineers. Through 5-year (preparatory + 4)
education, ECEE introduces basic sciences then concentrates on
specific technical skills for a computer engineer. There is a big
gap between what the student learns and what he finds in
practical life whether he would be an employee or an
entrepreneur. This paper proposes a new approach where the
ECEE will be oriented towards the type of business not the skill.
This will narrow the gap between academic and vocational
education. Choices of business are completely based on industry
and market demand that should be flexible and dynamic. Based
on the student's choice, he would study all what is related to that
business. This will necessitate interdisciplinary programs
oriented towards the business type to be inserted in the
curriculum as well as cross-faculties projects which will require
some kind of protocol between engineering and non-engineering
faculties. It will also require a change in the curriculum of the
non-engineering faculties that will participate in the cross faculty
projects. Evaluation of this proposal is presented using
questionnaire targeted at undergraduates and post-graduates.
