For all the students, the knowledge andperspective gained during their travels and studies will not only make them more employable andbetter engineers, prepared to work and travel in a global marketplace, but also more thoughtfuland aware citizens of the global community.

Kingdom recognizes three kinds of engineering competence12 including:  Engineering Technician (EngTech);  Incorporated Engineer (IEng); and  Chartered Engineer (CENG).This program is administered by the United Kingdom’s Engineering Council.In the late 1990’s Great Britain increased the requirements for Chartered Engineer status toinclude “an accredited Bachelors degree with honours in engineering or technology plus either amaster’s degree accredited by a professional engineering institution, or appropriate furtherlearning to the master’s level”. Alternatively a candidate could complete an accreditedintegrated MEng degree. Previously Chartered Engineers were not required to completeadvanced education. Engineers not completing advanced

method, taken from the Russian tool system, not onlyoffers education but attributes as a philosophical key to all industrial education [3]. BothWoodward and Runkle were preparing engineers to enter the occupational demands that needhands on experience combined with intense theory.Charles Richards claimed that America presumes “our place as a nation practically at the time ofthe industrial revolution” [18]. One lacking feature, during this time, is that America had noartistic traditions except for those of other countries and the United States (U.S.) needed todevelop their own artistic tradition. The arts and crafts movement entered the U.S. by Englandin the early 1880’s and demonstrated in the schools of Philadelphia [19]. The arts and

At a maximum designspeed of 1500 rpm ( 157 rad/s) the expected torque on the generator was /0.13 before adding any friction losses. An estimate of the overall torque and rotationalspeed needed to be coordinated between the teams so that the mechanical system would deliverthe necessary speed and torque to the generator shaft, and that the structure was designed

Results from this study suggest it is possible that with the proper supportspreservice teachers might build DIY interactive digital whiteboards, and this maypositively influence their interest and engagement in teaching.Bibliography1.
