otherprofessionals in preventive ethics [2] so that they can analyze and question even the existingsafety practices on their own projects, whether those are adequate to safeguard both the workersand the public.The focus areas of ethics to teach undergraduate engineering students are mainly engineering andbusiness. Since some of the students may enter legal profession as intellectual property attorneysor discipline specific experts, the students should be exposed to a few interesting case studiesrelated to ethical violations in intellectual property such as copying of products, computer codeor blatant patent violations that might have resulted in severe penalties. Those may still fall underengineering ethics issues rather than business law issues. Another

Forexample, if one of the goals of a shore power project is to reduce emissions, one must have aninventory of dwelling hours per call and auxiliary power capacity of the vessels visiting the portannually. Energy assessments must be based on an annual basis to include seasonal variations.Energy & Sustainability Conservation Opportunities (ESCMs)The following example shows how tools produced for one purpose may help other energyconservation measures. We can expand the data produced by the EPA calculator to identifyenergy and sustainability opportunities at ports.

necessitates a broader understanding ofengineering principles, project management, and problem-solving abilities, which may not befully cultivated in shorter programs. Additionally, abbreviated programs might not adequatelyequip graduates to navigate the swiftly evolving landscape of engineering and technology fields.Consequently, individuals with four-year degrees generally have the potential to commandhigher salaries over their careers compared to those with two-year degrees.Framework to Collect the DataIn this present study, we have introduced a framework that suggests the utilization of a blend ofqualitative and quantitative techniques to justify our hypotheses. This includes conductinginterviews with industry experts, surveying both current and

ETD 335Employee Experience Mapping WorkshopsEmployee experience mapping is a way to generate ideas and solve problems by (1) mapping thecurrent state, (2) identifying the bright spots and pain points, (3) generating ideas to improve thebright spots and pain points, and (4) presenting recommendations for the future state. Weconducted four employee experience mapping workshops over two months. Each workshopsession ran for three hours and included approximately 12-15 staff members with 0-15 years oftenure. New hires, project staff, and project managers shared their feedback on the new hireonboarding process from the day that an individual accepted SGH’s job offer to that individual’ssecond work anniversary.

, there is a growing need for a substantial and skilledworkforce to ensure the maintenance and upkeep of the roads and infrastructure. The conditionsin other transportation industries, such as aviation, are similar to the FHWA. According to theU.S. Department of Transportation statistics, employment in the transportation and warehousingsector increased to 6.7 million workers in 2022, up by 8.2 percent from 2021 [4]. Employmentamong civil engineers will increase by 11% between 2016 to 2026.However, university enrollment trends suggest that growth in degrees in civil engineering willfall short of the projected 11% [5]. To address this issue and to ensure a prosperous future for thetransportation industry and its various components, it is imperative

Traditionally, EPO-125 hasa laboratory component that requires system P&I (piping and instrumentation) diagrams for vitalsystems aboard our 500-foot training ship. Recently I’ve gone a step further by requiringstudents to visually trace out and research shipboard components outside of class, providepictures documenting their time in the ships engine room and allot time in class to discuss whatthey found and learned.

The funding for the initialstarting two years came from the externally funded project from U.S. Department of VeteranAffairs.The curriculum being developed for the MFET program involves the creation of new courses andthe establishment of a state-of-the-art smart manufacturing laboratory. Existing and newly hiredfaculty members will be involved in the development of these new courses. The smartmanufacturing laboratory will be equipped with cutting-edge manufacturing equipment to offerstudents a realistic and hands-on manufacturing experience. The equipment encompassesmetrology, assembly, processing, robotics, additive manufacturing, and programmable logiccontrol equipment. This diverse range of equipment will enable the inclusion

At this author’s college there have been numerous failedsearches or rejections of teaching position offers due to the college’s inability to offercompetitive wages versus what industry is offering [15]. This problem also affects the ability toattract adjunct faculty that might have a particular expertise in state-of-the-art Industry 4.0/smartmanufacturing technology.Other Industry 4.0 Educational Initiatives:Without digressing too much, let’s touch on some other post-secondary educational initiatives inthis space.
