The European Monitoring Committee is concerned with a couple of important projects. The most important ones are the Implementation of the new Index-Update-Procedure and the Reframing of the EUR ING title and the engineering card.
The procedure for updating the FEANI INDEX was changed in the last year. This was so important because the Index is on the one hand the most popular product of FEANI, on the other hand we all know that the Index is not up to date, which means that engineering programs in many countries are not listed in the Index although they ful ll the FEANI criteria for engineering courses. To hold the Index up to date is not an easy task, considering the number of new Bachelor and Master Programs every year. In the past EMC checked every single course before it was added to the Index. Obviously this is not a suitable procedure to handle thousands of courses in Europe.
The procedure is now working in the way that the National Monitoring Committees are responsible to hold the index up
