AutoCAD®4 was chosen as the 2-D program because of its wide use across several industry sectors, and SolidWorks®5 was chosen for the 3-D program because of comparative ease of learning, range of professional capability, and integration of modeling and analysis functions within the educational software package available.

. Recognizing the importance of manufacturing, one university engineering andtechnology department has offered degree programs supporting the needs of regional industry.This department worked to establish a strong partnership with the largest automotivemanufacturers in the region. The department is a nationally accredited industrial technology andengineering department that serves approximately 250 students in four different undergraduateacademic majors: electronics, occupational safety and health, industrial management, andcomputer-integrated manufacturing. The department offers Bachelor of Science degrees in eachof these four areas and a Master of Science degree in manufacturing management.One of the successful areas of this industry-based

, does the student no good, as it gives them noinsight into how the problem is actually solved or why the ODE behaves as it does. The authoruses a mixture of Maple and traditional board work to set up, graph, and solve traditionaldifferential equations and application problems.The solution is to stick to ‘low-level’ commands, using the CAS to perform the basiccomputations, such as algebraic manipulations, integrations, and determinants. These are skillsthat the student has demonstrated and mastered in pre-requisite courses. Instead of having themrepeat these type calculations over and over, we allow the use of Maple to carry out these tasks.So the student is still completing the entire solution process, but using a tool, Maple, to carry outthe

Once these skills are developed, students should beable to understand complex subject matter and transfer their knowledge to new environments andsituations. Engineering is not a subject that can be mastered through simply memorizing thelecture notes.15 It is a field that requires the application of the knowledge that has beenintroduced to the students.

Education, 2013 An Introductory Course in Practical Systems EngineeringAbstractGood systems engineering is essential for the effective design, fabrication, testing and operationof complex systems such as spacecraft. However, teaching good systems engineering toundergraduates is often viewed as either impossible (because it must be developed in real,professional settings) or impractical (because it requires sophisticated tools that are best coveredat the Masters level). While we do not dispute that becoming a good systems engineer requiresyears of practical experience and solid technical fundamentals, we believe that undergraduatesare capable of learning some of the fundamental tools and applying them to relevant projects.We have
