We are pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the 14th International Conference on Technical Education (14th ICtechEd 2027), to be held over two days on 27 – 28 May 2027.

The conference is co-organized by:

  • IEEE Thailand Section
  • The Association of Industrial Education (Thailand)
  • Faculty of Technical Education, King Mongkut’s University of Technology North Bangkok (KMUTNB)

ICtechEd provides an international forum where academics, educators, researchers, engineers, industry practitioners, and graduate/undergraduate students come together to present, discuss, and exchange current research, innovative ideas, and emerging trends across engineering and engineering education. Building on thirteen successful prior editions, the 2027 conference extends its scope to better reflect the accelerating convergence of technology and pedagogy and to broaden participation from the global engineering education community.

Submissions are welcomed under two principal categories, each expanded to reflect current and emerging areas of interest:

  • Electrical, Electronics, and Telecommunication Engineering
  • Mechanical, Mechatronics, and Automation Engineering
  • Civil, Structural, and Construction Engineering
  • Computer Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, and Data Science
  • Robotics, IoT, and Cyber-Physical Systems
  • Renewable Energy, Smart Grids, and Sustainable Systems
  • Industry 4.0/5.0, Smart Manufacturing, and Digital Twins
  • Materials Science and Advanced Manufacturing
  • Environmental Engineering and Green Technology
  • Biomedical and Health-related Engineering
  • Emerging Technologies (Blockchain, Quantum Computing, Advanced Sensors)
  • Innovative Pedagogy and Curriculum Development
  • Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET)
  • Competency-Based and Outcome-Based Education
  • STEM/STEAM Education and Lifelong Learning
  • Digital Learning, e-Learning, and Immersive Technologies (VR/AR/AI in Education)
  • Industry–Academia Collaboration and Workforce Development
  • Assessment, Accreditation, and Quality Assurance in Engineering Education
  • Teacher and Faculty Development for Technical Education
  • Inclusive, Equitable, and Accessible Engineering Education
  • Entrepreneurship and Innovation Education
