This book tackles the problems of engineering students and teachers while developing language skills through language education, transforming students’ mind-set through cultural studies, developing students’ intellectual abilities and personal qualities, and the use of information technologies in order to enhance the educational process. The International Conference Integration of Engineering Education and the Humanities: Global Intercultural Perspectives will take place 20–22 April 2022. It will be organized by Peter the Great Saint Petersburg Polytechnic University (Saint Petersburg, Russia) in collaboration with Research Centre Kairos (Tomsk, Russia). The event aims to raise discussions around a variety of aspects related to the integration of the humanities into engineering education. As such, the book will be of interest to the teachers, researchers and institutional leaders looking for the latest insights, experiences and research results on the topic.
