Sustainable Engineering has been described as “engineering for humandevelopment that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability offuture generations to meet their own needs” [3]. Both programs are multidisciplinary innature and include coursework from the disciplines of Industrial and SystemsEngineering, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering Technology, and Public Policy.The programs offer students the flexibility to develop ‘tracks’ in their program of studywhich would permit deeper immersion in domains such as renewable energy systems,systems modeling and analysis, product design, etc

The system consists of two Omni-drive robots: a SlaveRobot (SR) and a Master Robot (MR). The SR works independently. It sweeps dust and dirt fromfloor surfaces, including the corners of a room, beneath cabinets, or behind tables and otherfurniture. Additionally, it sends information/data to the MR. The MR computes an efficient pathto vacuum dust and dirt in the sections of the room based on the information/mapping

Tomorrow’s managers are being educated at universities today. Implementingbusiness processes analysis and improvement methodologies should be considered an importantcomponent of this education. Six Sigma methodology offers a comprehensive body ofknowledge to aid with such process improvements. This paper suggests a road map for implementation of a graduate course in Six Sigma.Students would start by acquiring the basic cognitive skills and mastering the necessaryunderlying concepts and theories.

Based on these challenges and our experiences leading toa successful accreditation of an undergraduate multidisciplinary program between engineeringand science, a set of guidelines is proposed. These guidelines include: the targeted assessment ofhigh-level, non-elective

These programs follow an “Introduce, Reinforce, Master” curriculum mapas part of the assessment plan where each student learning outcome (SLO) is assessed in at leastthree courses of different levels, so that each SLO is assessed at each of the three levels(introduced, reinforced, and mastered). We seek to effectively assess, at the introductory level,the proposed ANSAC SLO (2) and the new EAC SLO (2) with a single project and rubric in ourintroductory physics courses. The primary difference between the SLO (2) from the twocommissions is that the EAC is more specific in that students must apply “engineering

forprogram storage and 4 KB of EEPROM for infrequently changed data. It allows for theinterfacing of up to 60 KB of directly addressable external SRAM that, with an internal 4 KB,provides for 64 KB of SRAM. By using direct control signal generation and banking, the KoiosI is able to access 128 KB of provided SRAM for variable storage.The intended purpose of Koios I demands that it possess a significant and varied number ofinput/output (I/O) interfaces. In the original design, special purpose hardware was to be used tocreate the interfaces. However, it was realized that chip count could be significantly reduced byusing a second ATmega128 as an I/O processor. The main microcontroller which is interfaced tothe external SRAM is designated as the master

Of the 48 quarter-hours minimumrequired, 12 hours are for a project, the most important part of the program.
