teaching Quantum Mechanics to Engineering Students was discussed in lastyear's Conference in Seattle, WA, so in this present research the author has made a survey ofhow this material was perceived by senior year Electronics Engineering Technology students. Itwas taught to a class of 22 students who took their 2nd Physics class, in their senior year. Theoutcomes analysis show that for most advanced or even average students majoring in ElectricalEngineering programs, the subject is very consumable and exciting and understandable so longas the calculus by which the equation is solved is kept at minimal level.It was also thought that the possibility of providing a 2 credit hours course entitled “BasicQuantum Mechanics “, or could be given any other

In a recent report on its review of undergraduate education, theAdvisory Committee to the National Science Foundation's Directorate for Education and HumanResources concluded that “… while K – 12 programming can expand the pool of those interestedin pursing careers in SME&T [Science, Mathematics, Engineering, & Technology], it is at theundergraduate level where attrition and burnout can be most effectively prevented. What we inSME&T education must do is to concern ourselves with all students, not just those whohistorically have been represented in science, mathematics, engineering, and technology.

Each of these loops is envisioned as a Deming cycle as shown in figure 2. Our toplevel loop attempts to ensure that we have the right educational programs to accomplish ourschool’s mission and to satisfy our various stakeholders.

We want to broaden their vision of their distinctivecurricula and hope that students will see the importance of system integration brought about byadvanced technologies (e.g. VLSI, packaging, DSP) as well as changes in industry’s approach toproduct design and manufacturing. We emphasize design and analysis skills in this course, andteach students to approach embedded systems using classical engineering

These concepts include thrust, impulse, drag force, payload, ascent and descent (with and without a parachute) times, speed, and acceleration. The importance of the future courses in physics are emphasized. These activities constitute one of two team projects of a 1.5 credit portion of a two-credit course in exploration of engineering and technology at the Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA. Students learn many skills they need later in their studies and professional practice such as spreadsheet data entry and mathematical operations. Not the least of which is teamwork, a skill that they acquire as they organize into groups with

But since nearly everyonerecognizes the economic need to produce more graduates in science, technology, engineering,and math, an alternative to cutting Physics programs entirely was desired. Distance learningtechnology seemed like a reasonable solution to this dilemma. The governor agreed to relaxsome of the minimums if institutions across the state would collaborate on the delivery of low-enrollment courses in these small, costly programs, which in the long term would reduce thenumber of faculty members needed at each institution and thereby reduce the cost to deliver the
