CDIO principles are being adopted in the Civil Engineering program at Shantou University, where student design teams are now involved in the 4th year design project. In carrying out the project, students were encouraged to develop and practice teamwork skills, practical engineering, and application of integrated disciplinary and non-technical knowledge, all of which are called for in the CDIO standards. The process and features of the project are presented to illustrate the adoption of CDIO elements. Problems, conclusions and suggestions are also discussed.
