The program began admitting students in Spring Semester of 2011.The curriculum focuses on topics such as emergency planning, incident command, disasterresponse and recovery, hazard identification and mitigation, agency coordination, homelandsecurity, and community emergency training [3].The primary goal of the EMT program is to help students gain a well-rounded skill set that willallow them to succeed in a homeland security or emergency management position. To reach thisgoal, the existing courses in Emergency Management Technology need be enriched to inductcontents of telecommunication, nuclear technology

The positions they pursue could be permanent as in tenure-track positions ortemporary as the case in visiting positions or other forms of employment. An internationalfaculty member pursuing a career in academia is usually faced with a decision regarding the kindof position he/she plans to take. Those who love research activities will pursue a career ininstitutions that also value research activities more that teaching. Others who love teaching anddesire to keep it their main focus are likely to pursue a career at teaching institutions that valueteaching excellence and without great emphasis on research

assumptions, measurement instruments, and methodological approaches used byresearchers will also vary substantially based on their position in this debate.The other great debate in recent years is an outgrowth of new methods that have been introduced inentrepreneurship education and practice. These methods, although existing in some form in businessliterature for decades (Mintzberg & Waters, 1985), have been popularized more recently as “LeanStartup” or “Lean Launchpad” methods (Blank & Dorf, 2012; Ries, 2011). The advent of these newapproaches has created turbulence among educators and researchers. Many have been quick to “golean” and discard methods that favor a more traditional planning approach, while others have arguedfor the need to

How students use the space has surprised bothfaculty and college administration. Our goal has been to use the space as an organizing conceptfor a diverse array of activities ranging from high school robotics competitions to senior capstoneprojects. Subsequent to its introduction in February of this year, a study was conducted ofstudent awareness. This study informed us of the increased challenges in marketing the use of thespace.

Internationaleducators may be well aware of the need for the programs, but if they do not fit institutionalcommon sense, they may never be embraced. The second difficulty stems from the practicalsituation of returnees: they move on to other activities, like summer jobs or new classes, andtheir concern shifts to what is newly facing them. Engineers especially have tight schedules, andsomething like reflection on a trip that is already completed (and for which they have alreadyearned credit) can seem unimportant.
