In some cases, the practices werefer to are extant in the education literature, but not ones that we have tried as yet; however, weplan to examine them in upcoming semesters and, possibly, incorporate them into our ownclassrooms.

Therefore, determining the scope ofthe project, creating a work breakdown structure, and identifying the critical path particularlywith input from subject matter experts is crucial to facilitating learning-by-doing for real orpseudo projects in the planning stages. In this paper we present an innovative project-based learning approach for teachingproject management.

The researchers proposed that a consumer pull for better teaching and learning couldmake a difference to encourage research oriented universities to reform their curriculums [8]. Another article presented a model for re-engineering an undergraduate industrialengineering curriculum. The model used a five phase approach which included planning andassessment, identification of emerging topics, curriculum redesign, recruitment strategies, and ameasurement and continuous improvement plan. A voice of customer (VoC), including bothindustry and academics, was used to identify emerging topics and desired characteristics forindustrial engineering graduates. The

processes.One of the most useful practices that can be implemented to design products and processes inresponse to customer needs is Quality Function Deployment (QFD). It is a technique that strivesto utilize the voice of the customer directly into the development process for new products orservices. The customers’ perceptions can be identified and translated into the products designed,developed, and manufactured to fulfill those requirements. Customer needs are prioritized,innovative responses are determined, and processes maximized to improve effectiveness.Basically, QFD is a methodology that enables an organization to continually improve and exceedthe customers’ expectations. In this way, effective organizations can align their processes to meetor

The Handbook of Intercultural Competence11 acknowledges,however, that developing reliable instruments for this complex construct is challenging due tothe influence of so many external factors and recognizes the efforts of few institutions, includingLohmann et al.9, in measuring impact.

Since numerous six sigma projects have been discussed in the literature, thistechnique could be implemented in the Engineering Management curriculum at both theundergraduate and graduate levels. One caveat is important. General Electric and others thathave embraced six sigma projects have found the revolutionary changes leading to productinnovations diminish over time. Perhaps a systems approach works best by strategicallyseparating innovations into two
