| Abstract | In recent years, the development of professional skills has been one of the main themes among engineering education research. Many researchers [e.g. 1, 2, 3] argue that in higher civil engineering education should focus more on learning of professional and generic skills. These skills should be better integrated to the present contents of the study programs. On the other hand, the curriculum designers have been struggling with the growing workload of the students, because there is pressure to adapt new skills and contents to curriculums. This paper examines engineering students’ approaches to learning and their perceptions of the development of the professional skills and perceived workload in their studies. Research on students’ approaches to learning (the SAL-tradition) examines how and why students engage in learning. The research is usually based on the students’ self-reports of their |
