and graduate programs inengineering, sciences, mathematics, computational science and engineering, and technology byoffering an attractive alternative graduate program for the graduates of those programs in thisexciting and evolving field of the future. As new industries and technologies evolve so are theneeds for new educational programs. Historically, new educational programs have evolved tomeet the related needs and opportunities; for example, computer engineering in 1970’s, computerscience in 1980, bioengineering in 1990s, computational science and engineering in 2000s andthe nanoengineering programs of the 21st century. The committee does not believe the proposedprogram will stretch existing resources. Rather we feel it will further
. Bertoline, Dean, College ofTechnology at Purdue University. Dean Bertoline penned an unpublished work titled FutureCollege of Technology. This document formed the underlying vision and detailed plan forcreating preeminence in defining and developing the 21st Century Technologist; this, throughreinvention of the College of Technology at a tier 1 research intensive university. Subsequentconversations to advance this objective yielded the collection of thought reflected in this paper. Page 25.217.12Bibliography1 Zakaria, F. (2011). Innovate Better. Time Magazine.

STEP Fellows from 2006 to 2009 elucidates the role of the university graduatestudent in the STEP program. Each Fellow stands in a unique position as a kind of pivot pointamong high school and university educators, high school students, and the university researchenvironment. Effects of the experience, voiced through the mouths of the participants, rangefrom purposeful enthusiasm to the need for resolution. For most of the Fellows, STEP is an “eye-opener” into teaching, and most (67%) Fellows state that they want to teach at some level in thefuture. One Fellow states that STEP “help[s] me see and understand realities of teaching.” STEPhas an overall positive effect on the majority (70%) of Fellows based on the online survey asshown in Figure 4
are much smaller in terms of attendance, so you should havemany opportunities to interact with the attendees.It is never too early to start working on your teaching philosophy statement. A teachingphilosophy statement is a document describing the way you approach teaching and learning andhow you put your philosophy into practice. Some teaching philosophy statements also includeteaching interests (courses and topics you enjoy teaching) and examples of courses that you havetaught.Think about forming relationships with faculty members other than your advisor(s). Forinstance, these could be professors for which you were a teaching assistant, faculty whocollaborate with your advisor(s), or mentors working in industry. Ask if your school

Furthermore, some studiessuggest that cultural innovations are necessary30, 31, and that innovations that are institutionalizedthrough culture, policies, or practical reform have higher rates of success32. “Culturalinnovations” are changes to the way that a group thinks or acts. In this case, the changes mayneed to be made in order to realign the culture of the department(s) or program with newinterdisciplinary goals.
