IEEE EDUCON 2026 invites organisers to submit proposals (1–2 pages) for Tutorials and Workshops via the online submission system. Proposals should clearly explain why the proposed session warrants a distinct focus separate from the regular program and must address cutting-edge, contemporary, or emerging areas relevant to the engineering education community. Submissions that are too brief may be automatically rejected.

Conference Theme: "Human-centered Engineering Education: Empowering Sustainable Innovation and Ethical Leadership through AI and Digital Transformation"

Proposal Submissions must use the provided EDUCON 2025 Workshop & Tutorials Template and organisers should plan to closely follow all instructions and guidelines outlined below. 

Proposal Guidelines (Maximum 1–2 pages)

Each proposal will be required to submit two files:

  • .zip file containing all Tutorial or Workshop Organizer Headshots
  • Proposal PDF using the provided template

The Proposal PDF should summarize the scope of the Tutorial or Workshop in no more than 1-2 pages that includes:

  • Goal(s) of the Workshop or Tutorial: List of goals and how these goals align with the goals of EDUCON (approximately 100-200 words)
