programsmake appropriate links and project meaningful pathways for students from the advancement ofcultural orientation to the development of global competency.This study examines the extent of current engineering students’ awareness and potentialacceptance of cultural similarities and differences. We conducted survey assessment using theMiville-Guzman Universality-Diversity Scale short form (MGUDS-S) to measure and compareorientation toward diversity among four groups of engineering student populations, includingthose entering three different types of global engineering programs and a baseline population offirst-year engineering students. We proposed and tested a set of research hypotheses for multiplegroup comparisons of MGUDS-S results, including
difference between the system set point value and the systemoutput. The controller output signal is Proportional to: the error, the Integral of the error, andthe Derivative of the error. The PID has the following form3: 1 u( s) K[1 Td s] (1) Ti swhere K is the proportional gain, Ti is the integral time, and Td is the derivative time. There aretimes when the derivative portion of the PID controller is not needed for satisfactory systemcontrol. A PI controller is capable to provide satisfactory control for first order systems.However, higher order systems are controlled via PID controller. The system to be controlled inthis paper is third

This allows a one-to-one comparisonbetween exchange and non-exchange students without the need of additional academicperformance assessment measures and procedures. Since the curriculum of the exchangeprogram underwent a major change in 2001, only cumulative data from 2003 onward isdemonstrated here. This corresponds to data of 58 MSOE and 31 FHL exchange students.The Term GPA and Cumulative GPA of all MSOE exchange students is shown in Figure 5.
