An article in theCornell Chronicle observed, “No longer the ‘me generation’, American engineering students areactively taking on some of the world’s toughest problems…students and professional engineers[are] working to improve the lot of some of the world’s poorest communities, many in thedeveloping world.”3 Helping the impoverished have a better life enables students to look beyondthemselves into the world around them.In order to engage engineering students from many disciplines in a global opportunity, a newvariable credit (1-3) course was developed and is currently in progress during the Winter 2007semester.

The only difference is that ASU course is taught at sophomore level instead of the freshman level with pre-calculus as prerequisite. Primarily, this course introduces students to the engineering career opportunity, course requirements, survival skills, team work, technical communications, design approach, and ethical practices.

For example, a spare pump requires the extra pump, allpiping and valves, and control equipment to provide for immediate startup of the spare shouldthe primary fail. Even this total cost of spare pumps is usually found to be a good investment,while the much higher capital cost of compressors prevents a spare being provided in mostplants. This coverage of reliability will likely be limited in a design course; however, it isessential to perform proper equipment design and cost estimation. Even a brief introduction willprovide basic concepts used by students throughout their careers. Importantly, we hope that itwill pique their interest and serve as a basis for later study during
