Abstract :
A collaborative effort to develop and enhance a continuum of educational opportunities in nondestructive evaluation (NDE) in an engineering context is described. The primary foci of the effort are to improve articulation among the various existing components of NDE education and training, to enhance various aspects of existing programs, and to develop a model for the introduction of NDE education at the undergraduate engineering level. The current effort at Iowa State University (ISU), USA, is also described
