instructors of IMSE 564 have had more than four years of industrial experience. From theirpersonal experiences, the learner-centered approach in engineering education is an efficient wayto facilitate learning and simulate motivations for engineering students. In order to establish suchan environment, they have explored the following five areas: (1) Select suitable topic; (2) Encourage group activities of the students with the facilitations of the instructors; (3) Use multi-media technologies in teaching; (4) Involve industrial professionals in teaching; (5) Make the course project-based.2.1 Topic selection in engineering educationProceedings of the 2005 Midwest Section Conference of the American Society for Engineering

moreimportant, increased energy efficiency will be essential, both to reduce fossil-fuel consumptionand to make significant reliance on alternatives feasible. The technologies now in use and underdevelopment span the full range of engineering disciplines. Although some of these areaddressed well in standard disciplinary courses, high performance for many energy applicationsrequires integration of systems ordinarily developed by engineers from different disciplines.Researchers and entrepreneurs working on improving our society’s energy utilization need tounderstand the full landscape of challenges and opportunities. To meet this need, we have introduced a course at the senior undergraduate/introductorygraduate level, titled Energy Utilization

The key to this type of technical design lies in the fact thatthe courses would follow established design concepts developed by engineering and thatthere would be prime emphasis on standard design procedures and practices. Many ofthese design methods have already been included in handbooks or standard computermethods for various branches of engineering. These courses would require anunderstanding of the application of mathematics and science, for example, to suchactivities as [HVAC] air conditioning systems design, duct design, piping design,amplifier design, computer component and circuit design, plant layout, materialshandling operations, and/or civil engineering technology applications such as

Although virtual reality labs can potentially be usedin the several educational settings, one application explored in this paper for which VR labs areeminently suited involves using them for supplementation of physical laboratories. Students inthis modality use the VR lab for pre-lab practice sessions prior to conducting a physicalexperiment. This application is expected to enhance students’ knowledge of physical experiment,pertaining to objectives, procedure and data collection.

Module 1: Unified Life Cycle EngineeringA common complaint of engineering undergraduates is that they lack the breadth to see theimpact of engineering and design on a company’s business and society in general. The courseaddresses this competency gap by first showing students how design fits into the overall lifecycle of a technology, product and process, and how these three cycles are in turn involved in asingle unified life cycle for product development, design and production. This view helpsstudents identify the impact their decisions will have on the business
