resulting data. 6. Function and communicate effectively, both individually and within multidisciplinary teams. 7. Interact with other students, faculty and practicing professionals on professional and ethical responsibility issues. 8. Recognize the need for, and ability to engage in, perpetual learning by working on projects, both individually and within multidisciplinary teams, for which they have no prior experience and developing ways to learn. 9. Use basic statistical techniques to analyze data. Each individual lab stresses different areas. The first lab includes basic electricalmeasurements procedures, equipment and the design of basic electrical circuits anddigital systems. The first lab has two projects, one

called EngE 1024, “Engineering Exploration” Over the past seven years, the first-year courses in the GE program have evolved from somewhat standard problem solving(including statics, electrical engineering, material balance concepts), graphics, and programmingcourses to a format that emphasizes early design and realization, collaborative learning, andhighly interactive classroom environments. In 2004, the syllabus of EngE1024 was updated toinclude general problem solving, engineering ethics, visualization of 3-D objects and alsovisualization of information, early design (including realization), graphing and simple analysis ofgraphs, and introduction to object-oriented programming (OOP) approaches for problem solving.Further, significant
