classroomlearning experience combined with hands-on laboratory and group project activities. Theexperience of working in a close-knit team with direct access to your supervisor is difficult toemulate via distance learning. When combined with the UK education pedagogy and teachingexperience the whole joint-school experience is difficult to substitute. Consequently the threatof substitution is considered low.4. Buyer PowerBuyer power is probably the largest threat to the program and gives rise to the question “Whois the customer?” Identifying the first customer is straightforward; it is the new potentialstudent and their families who will invest in education products. The student has 3 options foreducation: the first is the domestic Chinese University sector

The company is involved in the earlystages of product design in a wide range of fields and for many different customers. In thisspecific case, Company C was recruited by a “third part” who hired Company C to design andmanufacture a prototype of a machine to be used in a medical laboratory setting for theanalysis of tissue samples. The “third part” was kept secret for the student team and CompanyC basically took the same design brief as being given from the third part to the student team.This company was also located within the Stockholm area.

semester2011 which was developed for the students to obtain this eyes-on learning. In order to expand thelearning opportunity in the course and to make it more than simply a series of tours, the coursewas designed so the students would do background work to gain an understanding of what theywould be visiting, and then actually visit the facility and talk with operators. At the conclusion ofeach visit the students would then write a journal of their visit to each regional power and energyrelated facility. Assessments from the students about the course and its learning opportunitieswill also be presented. The class represents a potential model for exposing students to industryfacilities in the form of a learning laboratory and also exposes the students

Through this examination of the program’s efforts, other engineering educatorswill be able to build upon their successes and avoid some of their difficulties while involvingtheir industry advisory board members in other ways.IntroductionEngineering programs from all disciplines rely on their industry advisory board (IAB) membersto help ground curricula in the current and future needs of the profession. This “real world”advice can be invaluable to balancing theory versus application in the classroom, help programsstay abreast of technological and other trending factors in the workplace

The key question he is investigating is what are the principles underlying rapid and robust concept exploration when the analysis models are incomplete and possibly inaccurate? His quest for answers to the key question are anchored in three projects, namely, Integrated Realization of Robust, Resilient and Flexible Networks Integrated Realization of Engineered Materials and Products Managing Organized and Disorganized Complexity: Exploration of the Solution Space His current education focus is on creating and implementing, in partnership with industry, a curriculum for

When I was in a management position at the NationalSuperconducting Cyclotron Laboratory, I had the luxury of building my own team from theground up, and this included hiring many co-ops through the years. In my current position, wealso have a fair number of co-op students and interns, although they do not report to me.A perspective that I have developed from both sides of the fence - academic and industry -regarding student workers is in regards to expectation setting. It has been my experience thatstudents have unrealistically high expectations when it comes to the work assignments that theythink they should be getting during their co-op experiences. The reality is that student workersare often viewed as a source of cheap labor

Such exposure could include required undergraduate research experiences,internships, or for ECPs rotations in work assignments or graduate school laboratories beforesettling on a career path. We also suggest developing practices around mentoring. Mentors,whether in the form of undergraduate advisors and research professors or bosses and coworkersat a first job, can have substantial impacts on career choices. Knowing why some mentors havesuch a tangible impact can help develop a set of best practices.AcknowledgmentsThe authors wish to thank the entire EPS research team as well as the study participants.
