They suggested more coursesrelated to lean manufacturing, logistics and material handling, project management and financialanalysis, leadership and management, and communications. With regards to the balance ofengineering and management courses, five felt that it was adequate, one wanted moremanagement courses, and one wanted more engineering courses.The conclusion that might be drawn from the survey is that our local employers have a cleardistinction in their minds between engineering students and management (business) students.This clear distinction might make it difficult for engineering

Clearly, a Ph.D. student that is interested in this type of position at anundergraduate engineering college would be a great candidate.With this idea in mind, the author recently worked with Virginia Tech to develop a collaborativeprogram whereby alumni from VMI will attend graduate school at Virginia Tech, but conducttheir research projects with author, supervised and externally-funded by the author.

Invariably, all civil engineering programs in the United States offer courses in themanufacture of the material and the design and construction of reinforced concrete structures.However, students are rarely introduced to sustainability principles and practices that produce“green” reinforced concrete structures, in that raw materials are used efficiently, byproducts areutilized, carbon footprint is reduced, and the resulting structure is energy efficient and durable.Knowledge of sustainability principles will make future structural engineers mindful of

In order to meet this challenge, a need exists to produce civil andenvironmental engineers who have a broad understanding of the pressing needs of the infrastruc-ture of the United States and who can solve problems from a systems perspective.
