engineering graduate programs use MATLAB forcourses in advanced reaction kinetics, thermodynamics, and/or transport phenomena. However,while we have created the modules with a MATLAB/SIMULINK framework in mind, PD&Cinstructors could also adapt the modules easily to use other software packages. For example, thefunctionality of Cooper and Dougherty’s Control Station [30-33] is comparable toMATLAB/SIMULINK. Other instructors have used HYSYS for control system modeling [e.g. 7,27] . It is relatively straightforward for instructors wishing to use Control Station or HYSYS toadopt our pedagogical approach and adapt our modules for use in their classrooms.Implementation of the Modules in PD&C at Rowan UniversityWe have used these modules in the PD

Certainly developed if you’re continually applying yourself… Kind of approaching your engineering studies with that attitude [of continually applying yourself] and then being goal-driven… You shouldn’t have dreams. You should have goals. It's just very much the sort of logic that I think the engineering world or the engineering profession would appreciate is always having these goals in mind.” –Dan Dan conveys how the engineering degree serves the purpose of demonstrating you're competent.

capability. Essentially, the students had suffered fromscope creep throughout their project experience. In the efforts to create an open-ended, real-lifeproject where students could effectively set their own scope, we actually created a challenge thatstudents could not wrap their minds around. This resulted in long project reports with disjointedinformation and designs. It was evident through the reports that the students had spent much timeon their projects, as individual parts of the designs were well planned, executed, and designedwith proper engineering principles and concepts. However, the students had a difficult timedeciding what to focus on and what not to, which lead to a lack in the overall cohesiveness of the

In theassociate questions, it is interesting to note that as sophomores, 10% feel proficient at using thefew laws that govern everything (conservation laws) while that number increases to 16% by thejunior year and then falls to zero by the time they enter graduate school. If true, it appears thatstudents become increasingly aware of their inability to solve problems and recognize that theyare not proficient at using even the few laws that govern chemical engineering phenomena.Keep in mind that the seniors and graduate students represent the best of the student body sinceless able students tend to change majors in the sophomore and junior years.

This course is well developed, butis similar to many nanotechnology–specific courses.19,20 Enrollment has varied between 22 to 36senior undergraduate and graduate students enrolled from chemical engineering, chemistry,physics, and material science. The focus of this course is the application of core chemicalengineering sciences (transport, kinetics, thermodynamics and reactor design) to thin filmprocesses, one important example of which is integrated circuit technology. This approachcreates a mind set in the process engineer to apply engineering skills in problem solving. It isparticularly suited for the
