focuses on the soft skills ofthe graduating engineer, and one that strengthens technical ECE skills that are not easilyoutsourced and are in fact hard to find. The proposed changes are based on numerousreports and studies that have examined the issue of outsourcing. These proposed changesare already taking place at many US institutions. While it is not expected that the numberof ECE professional would go back to the peak levels of 1987, it is crucial that ECEcurricula respond to outsourcing by graduating creative engineers that aremultidisciplinary team leaders, knowledge generators, system level designers, and thatare globally aware, business minded, and strong in the fundamentals.References[1] http://www.itpaa.org/modules.php?name=News&file

He closedhis response with the following statements: “I believe that the combination of exceptional toolsand passionate minds creates the ideal learning environment. The university gave us the tools;it's our job to bring the minds. That's why I recruit: to bring the brightest minds to the mostvaluable facilities, advancing the frontier of learning for all.”There are many other OU-ECE students that have a similar mindset.

ThisJIT technique worked very well as the immediacy of the need for the knowledge providedadditional motivation for the students and retention was much better as evidenced by theimproved designs and system engineering products produced by the students.To ensure the students learn the importance of identifying and clarifying system requirements,we intentionally introduced ambiguity to initiate discussion and clarification among the studentteam members and faculty.

, Introductionto Project Development, with two additional goals in mind: 1. Teach students design and project development well before they encounter them in their Capstone projects. 2. Provide an environment for experiential learning where integration of various strands of electrical and computer engineering disciplines can happen.Similarly to the first goal, some programs offer so-called “cornerstone” courses [3], but themajority of these seem to be freshman courses aiming to provide motivation for potentialengineering students while providing somewhat authentic experiences. These freshman students,however, will typically not have enough technical background to accomplish the second goal. Inour curriculum, students enrolled in ECE 211/212

PerspectiveThe faculty member had straight-forward goals, centered around the student learning skills andconcepts, both soft and technical, that are seldom fully developed in a typical engineering course.The overall goal, in the mind of the faculty member, was not to entirely recreate an existingsecurity design but rather to give foundational understanding to the student and allow the studentto grow as an engineer. The student grew in their understanding of cybersecurity, digital hardwareengineering, research methods, and more. As such, the project was a success. As with manyprojects, time and resources were limited, but despite that, the results, from the supervisor’s view,were positive.5 Recommendations from the Student5.1 Recommendations for
