Sincethe vehicles must run with no human intervention, they require the use of technology such asvision and range finders to allow them to “see” and navigate through its environment. GlobalPositioning Systems (GPS) allows them to navigate to pre-specified way points. The use of othersensors such as touch, directional, speed etc. is also needed. The competition generally consistsof 3 challenges, navigation through a path, navigation via waypoints and a

There is aparallel need to develop “entrepreneurally-minded” engineers (i.e., those who can identifyopportunities to create or improve products, and to implement plans to capture such opportunities).Engineering graduates need the capability and competency to efficiently and effectively engineerinnovative systems that satisfy customer and user operational needs, within budget, schedule,technology, and risk constraints. The solutions developed must incorporate societal impacts as wellas regulatory constraints. As evidenced by our definitions, there are strong overlap between Page

The results of thiswork demonstrate that the synchronous online mode of learning is a popular means of engagingwith distance learning technology. When prompted through some explicit instructor actions anda culture of inclusivity (regarding prompting, wait time, scheduled presentations), thesynchronous online students interact often and with high-quality. This paper demonstrates how adetailed and quantitative assessment may be conducted to inform the course structure andinstructor training of a Systems Engineering education program

Onthe survey and during the interviews/focus groups, students described engineering as a creativeprofession. A student explained: I didn’t have an opinion on engineers before, not having any in my family, except for electrical engineering. I thought that they mainly had to do with technology and that is what they did. So, I guess, it definitely changed my opinion on engineers. I know
