Towards the end of her sophomore year, she described her experiencesin her pre-engineering classes: “It just seemed like there was just a different frame of mind and the whole ‘me succeeding,’ like ‘me, me, me,’ and really not wanting to help people, and I didn’t understand that, because I really, if I know something, I’m gonna help you figure it out, and I would hope that if I didn’t know something, it would be the same way.”Asked where this different frame of mind comes from, Bryn said

focuses on the soft skills ofthe graduating engineer, and one that strengthens technical ECE skills that are not easilyoutsourced and are in fact hard to find. The proposed changes are based on numerousreports and studies that have examined the issue of outsourcing. These proposed changesare already taking place at many US institutions. While it is not expected that the numberof ECE professional would go back to the peak levels of 1987, it is crucial that ECEcurricula respond to outsourcing by graduating creative engineers that aremultidisciplinary team leaders, knowledge generators, system level designers, and thatare globally aware, business minded, and strong in the fundamentals.References[1] http://www.itpaa.org/modules.php?name=News&file

We have thereforebegun the process of integrating the use of FEA tools throughout the curriculum, instead ofdelaying it until the senior year either for senior design or elective courses. This paper describesthe introduction of FEA to students in the first course of Statics and Solid Mechanics. The firstpriority of this course is to build the foundation for Mechanics. The challenge therefore was todetermine the content without compromising the priority. Keeping this in mind, 1-D Barelements and 2-D Truss elements are introduced in the course. These

The official course objectives of Aero 572, “Aircraft Manufacturingand Fabrication,” were specifically developed with this in mind. The course is offered twoquarters of every academic year, and the specific objectives as taken from the study guide arelisted and discussed below.13 The course objectives are to provide a hands-on demonstration and
