University educationcomes into play. The university should incorporate the diverse operations of an enterprise intothe engineering/technology curriculum. This type of information is necessary for a new graduateto be able to relate to their co-workers and work in a unified fashion towards a company’s goals. Eastern Michigan University has a Manufacturing program that integrates the operationsof an enterprise into the engineering or technology curriculum of a student. The core classesgive the student solid background knowledge to refer to when the more specialized or capstonecourses are reached. The core classes include, of course, the math and science background which is alwaysnecessary for a technology student but also includes such

This has been accomplished through industry-university partnerships with pharmaceutical and petrochemical companies. Several grants fromthe US Environmental Protection Agency have supported initiatives in green chemistry,engineering and design. These projects have the broader goal of supporting sustainability in thechemical industry.IntroductionToo often the teaching of a technical subject like green engineering is limited to an individualclass experience or one dimensional laboratory or design experience. The teaching of greenengineering in the curriculum is greatly enhanced by active participation of students throughoutthe curriculum and in real-world

Although these programs vary in their areas of emphasis, all aredesigned to be practical degrees that prepare their graduates to become leaders in engineeringorganizations.6-10Many undergraduate programs integrate engineering management skills into their senior designsequence.11-13 Frequently, this is done in an effort to commercialize the senior projectsthemselves, but it is also done in an effort to instill an entrepreneurial spirit in the engineeringstudents as they are on the verge of graduation.
