unable to find the time, money or resources to learn the technologies demanded by emerging industry. In reality, this is due to a lack of effective NA education methodology which can be solved by applying an elastic system with the best practices of: educational curriculum support, network technology, engineering and management, which can make the NA curriculum effectively adapt to the drastic changes of industry requirements. Consequently, college education in NA needs to adapt and promote viable curriculum innovation in order to improve the efficacy and preparedness of the next generation network administrators. 3URFHHGLQJV RI WKH 6SULQJ 0LG$WODQWLF 6HFWLRQ

EENG/EGTE 3288 Microprocessor System Design II whichrequires programming the Freescale HCS12 microcontroller using the C language. As such, thiscourse is a prime candidate for introducing Secure Coding principles. Proceedings of the Spring 2013 Mid-Atlantic Section Conference of the American Society of Engineering Education 132Secure coding concepts have been proposed and incorporated in some college curriculum [2 – 4]mostly in the computer science departments. However, due to the criticality of the cyber attacksand the resulting disruptions, all engineers must know the root cause of

Construction Management students.Key Words: Statics, Construction Management, Design.Introduction:Statics is an important subject in many Engineering and Engineering Technologydisciplines especially Civil Engineering and Civil Engineering Technology, andArchitectural Engineering fields. Construction Management graduates dealextensively with architects to construct structures which are designed by civilengineers. Statics is a fundamental and required course in Civil and ArchitecturalEngineering curricula. Many Construction Management programs require Staticsin their curriculum for various reasons including accreditation requirements.The author has taught Statics to Engineering students for ten years at Penn StateUniversity.

in electrical-engineeringtechnology is a core part of the entire curriculum. Teaching electronics today,however, presents a real challenge. Indeed, on the one side, we need to introducethe basis of the subject, starting from diodes, transistors and simplest amplifiercircuits; on the other hand, modern electronics is based on integrated circuits(ICs) whose operation is very far from that of the circuits build from discretecomponents. In fact, the understanding of a system as a whole entity that isimperative in practical applications. In short, there is a huge gap between thefundamentals of electronics that we are still teaching in traditional electronicscourses and the real-world electronics used for building modern devices andgadgets.

Abstract: The course of Microcomputer Systems Technology has been one of the core courses in the Computer Engineering Technology curriculum (Bachelor of Technology in CET) at the New York City College of Technology of the City University of New York. The Intel microprocessor in PC based computer was the chosen hardware in this course. The assembly and C++ languages were crucial tools in the study of microprocessor organization. We currently focused mainly on the topic of PC computer parallel interface technology. However, we did not pay particular attention to the integration of current programmable peripheral components, such as USB (universal serial bus) based input

methodology.Keywords: Technical Education, Engineering, Assessment, Measurement, Sustainability.Introduction:Sustainability is a buzzword in modern times. Many areas have been attracted touse the term Sustainability to refer to keeping up, prolonging, and enduring.Sustainability have been used in areas such as development, ecology, energy,biology, to name a few. According to [1], sustainability is the noun form of theverb to sustain, and it means to keep up, prolong, endure, etc. The termSustainability is sometimes coupled with the synonym Maintainability whichmeans to keep in an appropriate condition or to sustain against opposition ordanger. The main difference between Sustainability and Maintainability is theamount of energy and the type of effort needed
