The summer bridge program seeks to supportinstitutional objectives of growing enrollments, community engagement, increasing access inaddition to attracting students to academic programs within the college of Engineering andTechnology (Lenaburg et al., 2012). Several measurable goals were created to guide the designand implementation of the summer bridge program including

Session 3547 A New Paradigm for Teaching Circuit Analysis Stephen H. Maybar, Jerome Zornesky Department of Electrical Engineering Technology Technical Career Institutes, New York City NY 10001AbstractTraditionally, circuit analysis has been taught as a two-term sequence with DC circuit analysis inthe first term and AC circuit analysis in the second. The normal two-term sequence may beshortened to a single term if DC and AC analysis are taught concurrently rather thanconsecutively. In the modified sequence, DC circuit analysis is considered as a special case ofAC

manufacturing systems.Manufacturing engineers need to integrate other technologies with the objective of extractingfrom robots the flexibility they can offer. Vision systems have been introduced and implementedon industrial robots to improve productivity and flexibility of manufacturing systems. Sometypical applications with vision systems are work piece identification, work piece positioning,work piece dimension measurement, position compensation, surface painting, and visiontracking. Therefore, there is a need to introduce vision system technology to students in theManufacturing Engineering Technology program.There are three Robotics courses offered in the Manufacturing Engineering Technology programspanning from 200 level to 400 level to teach

model for the integration of Machine Learning into the undergraduate curriculum of those engineering and science disciplines mentioned above. The goal is increased exposure to Machine Learning technology for a wider range of students in science and engineering than is currently available. Our approach of integrating Machine Learning research into the curriculum involves two components. The first component is the incorporation of Machine Learning modules into the first two years of the curriculum with the goal of sparking student interest in the field. The second is the development of new upper level Machine Learning courses for advanced undergraduate students. In the past, we have reported on our experiences of introducing
