response tothese changes in industry, engineering schools have also reevaluated and realized theircurriculum particularly in area of collaborative design projects. The objectives of this paper are(1) to review the existing software/tools and methodologies used in design processes, (2) tointroduce innovative approaches to collaborative design environment, then (3) present severalfunded case studies employing new cutting-edge technologies.IntroductionThe field of collaborative design (CD) has enjoyed considerable attention and success over thelast decade as rapid changes in technology and a global economic recession have promptedmany leading manufacturing companies to reevaluate and upgrade their design andmanufacturing process.

Theintegrated nature of manufacturing is evident in its symbiotic relationship with innovation, nationalsecurity, and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education. Moreover,manufacturing is increasingly important to the balanced education of engineers in all disciplines.However, today’s manufacturing is undergoing the greatest change in more than 100 years, andthe current skills gap causes serious concerns about the ability of manufacturers to fill criticalpositions. Manufacturing needs a well-trained workforce that possesses skills like problem-solvingand critical thinking to make effective decisions at all

This course encompasses the “technology life cycle” which we break downinto four modules: Research and Development (Basic and, Applied), Product Development,Commercialization, and Product Retirement and Revitalization. This course has several goals: x introduce non-engineers to technology and process and product development in a corporate setting, x introduce engineers to the decision making

: tang@rowan.eduAbstract -- A class for professionals could be quite different from one for college students due to a varietyof backgrounds and work experience. Some of them want to make a career change; some of them want tocatch up with the state-of-the-art technologies. In class, concepts, principles, and equations might be tooabstract when there are no good real life examples. Object relationship modeling in object-orientedsoftware engineering course is a good example. This article briefly shows a few cases of how real lifeexamples can help professional students understand the covered contents, which have been experimentedin class using the Rational Rose enterprise suite.
