Abstract:
This paper examines authorship patterns in Engineering Education literature from 2000 to 2008. The International Journal of Engineering Education was used as the database for the study. The result shows that collaboration activities dominated the literature (73%). The highest collaboration coefficient was found to be (0.81). The aspect of International collaboration was emphasized, and 64 countries were found to have participated. The proportion of male (81.1%) and female authors (18.1%) was determined, and the gender composition of research groups was also outlined. Looking at the number of international collaboration participants, one could argue that research activityconnects scientists across nations and continents.
