摘要:: 认证机构和雇主对未来工程师的技能要求与通用能力密切相关。这不仅关乎专业技术技能，还涉及设计、沟通和协作中的过程能力(process competencies)，以及新技术开发中整体思维的能力。培养通用能力的方法之一是让学生在企业环境中处理真正的现实问题。然而，这也增加了在混合学习环境(hybrid-learning environment)中融合学术和产业文化教育设计的挑战。本文以奥尔堡大学作为案例，提出了工程教育中学生-企业协作的四种模式：企业作为信息提供者、案例、客户和合作伙伴。希望本研究能为提升大学生就业能力的课程设计者带来灵感。

Abstract:: The skills expected of tomorrow’s engineers and demanded by accrediting institutions and employers are closely related to generic competencies. It is not just about technical skills but also process competencies in design, communication and collaboration as well as competencies support a holistic thinking in the development of new technology. One of the ways to foster generic competencies is to let students work with authentic real life problems in a company context. This however adds to the challenges of educational design to merge academic and industrial cultures in what could be called a hybrid-learning environment. Taking Aalborg University as a case, this study puts forward four modes of student-company collaboration in engineering education: company serves as an informant, a case, a client on a partner. It is hoped that this research can bring inspiration to the curriculum designers for impoving the employability of students.
