The CAN bus and the vehicle’s Data Basesupport data acquisition instruction and enable vehicle performance evaluation on real worldequipment.The course uses vehicle energy systems as a platform to review and reinforce fundamentalengineering approaches and calculations while presenting recent, relevant vehicle energysystems technology. The course also provides an opportunity to evaluate alternate approachesand designs by making engineering judgments and decisions that are common in day-to-dayengineering practice.The course structure includes a combination of lecture, simulation, and laboratory learningexperiences.

This requires anexcellent physical infrastructure, dedicated technical support, stimulating intellectual content,innovative delivery of that content, and a vision for the overall integration of laboratories into thecurriculum. Design projects are critical to the learning process because they provide a uniqueopportunity for students to integrate concepts from across the curriculum and to develop Page 15.518.3important skills such as project and team management and oral and written communication.The goals of a facility equipped with precision surface-mount technology (SMT

Villanova UniversityAbstractProject management has become a standard practice in the fields of engineering,construction, and information technology, greatly reducing the number of failed projects.While fundamental technical content takes up the bulk of the typical undergraduateengineering curriculum, the capstone design project is an excellent opportunity to teachproject management principles through a project-based learning experience. While mostprograms include project management topics in capstone lectures few programs activelypromote applied project management. A few institutions have taken a more formal approachby creating dedicated project management courses or incorporating substantial projectmanagement materials in an existing course

Most engineering curricula have become more intensive and thus students arerequired to spend more time for each subject.

Session 3261 Inquiry-Based Student Learning Sridhar S. Condoor, Richard G. Weber Saint Louis University/ Fairfield UniversityAbstractIn the traditional engineering curriculum, students are presented with and tested on factualknowledge. Very little emphasis is placed on their thought process, which is more important as itcan lead to inventions and innovations. This attitude is reflected in the commo n answer “I don’tknow” from the students who do not spend any effort or time to think. The engineering programsat St. Louis and Fairfield Universities have the common
becomemore active and involved in the subject and its implementations. The students showed morededication to the course and to the instructor.Introduction In this era, the national development is based primarily on the strength of its infrastructureincluding transportation, education, health, water resources control, and housing facilities. Thesubsequent needs are focusing on how to deliver these services in effective capabilities and fullyfunctional manner mean time. Current and anticipated methods of applying technologies ininfrastructure delivery systems, construction management, construction engineering, andmaterial engineering urged engineering industry to revolutionize its methodology and practice.These rapid changes in needs and practice

These drivers can be classifiedinto those of resource needs (e.g. qualified personnel) and technology related issues. Resource Page 11.52.3needs can be further classified into three types – (1) design and application engineers, (2) radarsystem integrators and managers, and (3) research and development scientists. These needsare met by BS, MS, and PhD graduates, respectively. Thus our undergraduate and gradu-ate educational initiatives have been developed to provide an
