article discusses a paradigm that provides an organised technique for designing engineering curricula. The model was created to demonstrate the key influences on curriculum design as well as the relationships between them. Engineering science, the corporate world, the academic environment, and professors and students are all considered as influences. Each of them is detailed, as is their effect on the curriculum, as well as the sources of information on the influences. The CDIO syllabus has been developed as part of the foundation for Bachelor of Engineering degrees at the Technical University of Denmark, implying that the university environment has a significant direct influence on the final electrical engineering curriculum. The resultant Bachelor of Engineering curriculum is given, and its compliance with the curriculum creation approach is reviewed. The key conclusion and advice is that deliberate use of the model provided in the study may structure and enhance curriculum creation, resulting in a well-founded and organised curriculum.
