I don't think that I'll forget either one.” – Josh Powell, junior civil engineering student at UCD, Spring 2007. “The hamburger helper analogy helped a lot and was a really good example. Traffic Gridlock is also good. Group of straws is also excellent. Those three examples are stuck in my head and I understand it very well. Last week when my Timber Design professor talked about wood for 30 seconds, all he talked about is wood being like a bunch of straws. If weren't for mechanics of material's lab, I would not know what he is talking about”. – Hiep Nguyen

Even with this system the authors experienced cases offaculty candidates being selected and, after signing a contract, changing their minds in favor ofother higher paying jobs in private industry. The governments of developing nations must beaware of these competing demands for engineers and offer incentives to retain top engineers ineducation. Ultimately it will be the engineers who remain in education who will teach andprovide the subsequent generation of engineers.In a developing program, the need for continuity is critical. There is a high rate of personnelturnover at NMAA and this will continue for several years. Without a continuous presence atNMAA, educational gains will

However, many students achieve only a low level ofunderstanding with design abilities amounting to “plug-and-chug”. This might be the product ofthe combination of two factors. First, commonly instructors only use traditional teacher-centereddirect instructional practices (e.g. only lecturing and

Students gain sub-discipline specific knowledge during the junior year. It would be prudent to show students how S&R applies in each of these sub-disciplines.

Students who are learning about one small portion of the design process—in astructural steel design course, for example—need to be reminded that decisions made during thedesign phase often have significant but invisible consequences over the lifetime of the facility.A fifth and final topic related to PtD is comparisons of public policy around the globe.
