INSE - A Historical PerspectiveThis section discusses the evolution of the Industrial and Systems Engineering (INSE) Programat The University of Memphis from a graduate program to a combined undergraduate/graduateprogram. INSE began as a graduate program. In the early 1970’s, a group of industryrepresentatives approached the university expressing the need for a program to teach systemsengineering skills to people in industry who possessed technical knowledge in other areas.These local industries provided the first students as well as the adjunct faculty to teach thecourses. Thus, the connection to the "real world" was established at INSE’s

renaissance of provenmethods, but one that exploits modern technology to make experience with the scientificmethod affordable and attractive to students and professors.What is new in the late 1990s is that rapid development of the Web has created an opportunity toprovide all students with involvement in the full range of pure and applied science methods in anaffordable and attractive manner. This project provides a focus on completing the full range oflearning of scientific methods by incorporation of real laboratory experience with the informationdelivered over the Web.Bibliography1.

Thirty different software systems are listed in Table I at the end of this manuscript.New systems seem to be announced weekly; some systems disappear mysteriously without atrace.An early adopter has a very difficult task to select which software system(s) to use.

theSafety Committee). Under the present system the Safety Committee is asked to protect theidentity of the “perpetrator” for the first unsafe act. However, in order to preventaccidents, the Safety Committee is asked to report any repeat of the same unsafe act by thesame individual(s) to the laboratory supervisor or to one of the safety coordinators so thata positive corrective action can be taken.Student participation in the PAWS Program has varied. In the early years of the programapproximately fifteen to twenty PAWS Forms would be submitted during a typical quarter,most of them for equipment related situations and, in some cases, of a “nit-picking” nature.Most of the PAWS Forms were coming from the student Safety Committees.
