Session ETD 525 Building a Better Engineering Technology Graduate William Shapiro Adjunct Faculty, School of Engineering and Technology, IUPUIThe application of technology in the industrial workplace has led to unprecedented productivityand quality advances over the last 30 years. Companies have transformed the way they dobusiness from huge behemoths using a large labor pool as their primary resource, to lean, “rightsized” organizations that use automation, systems, and the collection and usage of data to reduceoperational costs. This has allowed U.S. industries to remain competitive in a

of thecommonalities and differences will be discussed in this paper.IntroductionWhat distinguishes a BSE and a BSET? Should you care? To answer the question, you mustknow what the letters stand for. In the first case, the E represents Engineering. In the second,the ET stands for Engineering Technology. There may be an even more defining term as eachcan cover specific engineering programs such as Electrical (BSEE/BSEET), Mechanical(BSME/BSMET), Industrial (BSIE/BSIET), and so forth. You may ask again, why should youcare? To better understand the difference can be approached by looking at the ABET programcriteria (1,2) used as part of the process in accrediting university programs. It should be notedthat ABET has additional requirements for

Well advised students are (a) more likely to enroll, (b) less likely totake classes that do not contribute towards graduation, (c) more likely to enjoy college, (d) moreapt to persist to graduation. The process of academic advising is important to institutions ofhigher education and the role of the academic advisor is critical to student retention and studentsatisfaction with the institution (Gerdes & Mallinckrodt, 1994; Corts, Lounsbury, Saudargas, &Tatum, 2000; Thompson, Orr, Thompson, & Grover, 2007; Hester, 2008).Academic Advisors in engineering and engineering technology programs play a major role byproviding students timely and accurate
