In general,students indicated that they found the course to be a positive experience that increased theirenthusiasm for civil and environmental engineering.5. Conclusion The use of distance engineering in CE 1030 provides a foundation for future developmentsin this area, and also demonstrates some important points to consider when incorporatingdistance engineering into undergraduate courses.

The fundamentals of flight, aircraft principles,rocket principles, spacecraft principles, and humans in space comprise the five areas that areaccessible in this fundamentals section. Each of the five topics starts with a pictorial history sec-tion, then the principles are discussed, followed by class discussion questions and possible activi-ties and research questions, and

Another department which theycalled the postgraduate department (and I will call the graduate department) offered the master ofscience degree in each of the above disciplines. The M.S. program required three years, twoyears of course work and a final year to complete a project (thesis).

Incorporation through another institutionapplies to specific programs, but not to the entire institution. One argument for accreditation is thatvalidation requirements may be unevenly applied when the programs of private institutions are“incorporated” or recognized by different public institutions.In the larger engineering schools, a number of departments may be administered within one Faculty:e.g., a Faculty of Mechanical & Electrical Engineering with nine or ten programs, some rather large.Many programs may come under one master plan for

Perceptions of Women EngineersAs a part of a large qualitative study into the perceptions and expectations of women engineers12,women engineers were asked What is your best quality? and How do you compare to your malepeers? In this study, 21 women engineers ranging in ages from 25 to 40 and from a geographicalcross section of the United States were interviewed in person about their expectations andperceptions of their engineering careers.

People who have the ISTJpersonality type tend to be dependable, diligent, logical and realistic, and they enjoy working inareas where individual drill and practice in conventional thought requiring the systematiclogical assessment of practical realities lead to accomplishments. While all types candemonstrate diligence and dependability, these traits are more pronounced in the ISTJ type.Furthermore, this personality type is dominant in typical populations of engineering students,and even casual reflection on the kinds of learning that engineering students must master allowsus to understand why this is so.

In someinstances, the literature can be categorized into both categories. The common theme for literaturethat implements machine vision elements within the project-based learning environment is thatstudents are engaged due to the perceived utility of machine vision [2] and the challenge ofapplying and mastering the technique [7].Although the use of vision systems in first year engineering projects is limited

The design relied on weights and pulleys [1][3]. In addition to his automata, Leonardo’s creations included an aerial screw (a design for a helicopter), a crank mechanism for making screws, the self- propelling cart (Automobile – Figure 1), the hydraulic pump, the submarine, the battle chariot, and ball bearings to name a few.  Over time, Descartes’s view of living things as complex machines resulted in a hype about automata in Europe between the 17th to early 19th centuries (Figure 2) [3].
