wasimplemented at RainStar University to design and develop MS curriculum in the Acupunctureand Oriental Medicine. The implementation was not only successful but exceeded theprofessional competencies. In addition, the QFD technique ensured that the curriculum is agileand flexible to meet future real-world changes [9] [10].Based on the literature review and the research in this area our team decided to use QFDtechnique in the design and development of an existing associate degree in engineering atDaytona State College (DSC) to meet industry workforce needs and professional competencies[11].Curriculum Design and DevelopmentTo identify the gap between industry and academia and to create the best set of educational andprofessional development materials
. The National Institute of Standard and Technology(NIST) defines smart manufacturing as “fully-integrated, collaborative manufacturing systemsthat respond in real time to meet changing demands and conditions in the factory, in the supplynetwork, and in customer needs” [6]. In other words, IIoT uses a collaborative network ofdevices or things to collect sensory data about and from the various workings within an industrymanufacturing facility; and then relays this information to other things to be used. This processcan be used to help automate systems or software based on specific conditions that need to bemet, or to present verbose, real-time, up-to-date information to a user that can monitor it andmake better, more informed decisions.IIoT
effectiveness. Closed-loop implies performance data is compared to a referencevalue and depending on the magnitude of the difference, the implementation strategy for theacademic program is modified.SPK functional areas derived from the following ABET General Criteria [12] are: 1. Students: Ensure students are academically prepared and scheduled to be in the right place in the program at the right time. 5. Curriculum: Ensures an integrated set of courses and laboratory experiences from the discipline BOK to develop knowledge, skills, and behaviors of students and satisfies accreditation and university requirements.Extra-Curricular, also an SPK Functional Area, consists of non-curriculum related programactivities that also develop knowledge

formation of anengineering identity is an area of increasing interest in engineering education research due to itslink to student retention, particularly for those underrepresented in the profession.In addition, industry demands that engineering graduates possess improved abilities tocommunicate in a variety of mediums and cross-culturally. Improved integration of writing intothe technical curriculum could serve as a concrete method to develop these critical skills andattributes while potentially improving student retention. Despite these numerous benefits andefforts to increase engineering writing through efforts like Writing Across the Curriculum, it seemsmost engineering programs do little to engage their students in meaningful writing. This

The IIE CEO Don Greene explained thereasoning for this by saying; “The name change aligns IIE with the changing scope of theprofession that, while keeping its industrial base, has seen more industrial and systemsengineers working with large-scale, integrated systems in a variety of sectors. The changealso is consistent with department names in many universities, as two-thirds of the top 65schools ranked in U.S. News
investigated to be used to further improve the game to the expectations of the students. 2Serious games are critical for experiential learning as well. Experiential learning is termed as theprocess, whereby the knowledge is created through the transformation of experience [18][19][10].Experiential gaming models are also proposed in the literature, where gaming and experientialeducation principles are integrated. One of the early works proposed an experiential gaming modelwhich was based on integration of experiential learning theory, flow theory and game design [20]In this study, we focus on developing a serious game that can be used as part of classroom
otherfields of engineering. UIC and additional universities can have a better understanding of the jobmarket using SMS. They will be able to transform their curriculum to better suit the demand ofthe job market. Students will be more aware of the demands of the job market. Employers andrecruiting firms can use the list of skills to remain competitive in the job market.MotivationThe demand for skilled workers is growing while the desired skill set in engineering occupationsis changing rapidly. The ability to adapt to the dynamic skill requirements is key to the successof an individual's career. It is essential for job seekers to be aware of skills that will allow themto obtain and perform within an occupation.Engineering students are prepared to
’),could encourage them to view IE as an approachable field.Reflections from the IISE definition - IISE defines Industrial and Systems Engineering as “Adiscipline concerned with the design, improvement and installation of integrated systems ofpeople, materials, information, equipment and energy. It draws upon specialized knowledge andskill in the mathematical, physical, and social sciences together with the principles and methodsof engineering analysis and design, to specify, predict, and evaluate the results to be obtainedfrom such systems.” Per this definition of IE, this activity addresses the idea of designing asystem consisting of materials and people, improving the system to make it more efficient, andincorporating methods of engineering
