Work in progress - fishing engineering education in the age of internationalization learning

Science has developed itself in a kind of knowledge fragmentation, generating the super specialties, divorced from the global context that they are part, atrophying the ability of integrating and evaluating the issue in its context. The new world order demands a new kind of professional, capable to think global without loosing the dimension of local and vice-versa. With the goal to defeat this challenge the engineering coordinating team of Council of Researches in education and sciences in Brazil has conceived a different kind of approach to a fishing engineering program. It includes in the program what is called "Tape-Apo", which are extra classes of peculiar areas of human knowledge, specially selected to make the students to develop their abilities of applying their skills in the global context with success. They are engineers with solid theoretical knowledge of management, economy and law and possessing great engineering bases.
