That is, s(he) wants a lower cost, but equal or superior product performance.

Consultation with the senior members of the Cheyenne Tribe onavailable, cost-effective and maintainable technologies led to the tribe¹s selection of the finaltechnologies for which funding would be sought. The engineering Clinic team developed atechnical guide for the implementation of a commercial fish production facility utilizing waterreuse technology that local natural resources that could produce 100,000 pounds of fish annually.This process was fruitful not only for the tribe, but also for the students.

For thelast several years the US Government had no choice but to keep on increasing working visas forimporting engineers and technologists from overseas to deal with the severe shortage. In 1995,65000 visas were granted while that amount has been increased to 215000 by the year 1999.Even though that number has come back to 65000 again, clearly we are relaying on foreign-bornengineers4.If passed, the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act, S’2611, would allow high skill foreignborn computer and engineering workers to admit into the United States in the next one, two, five,and ten years.

is apparent that instructional goals for students to be lifelong learnersequipped with science literacy, information fluency and communication skill are met bystudents learning experiences.The cross-curricular endeavors have amplified teaching effectiveness of each unit andhave strengthened the collegial communication. The collaborators have learned fromeach other’s reflections to make the assignment a meaningful learning experience notonly for students but also for themselves. With respect and understanding for eachother’s role in student learning, the collaborators demonstrate their ability to engage inlifelong learning and foster students to be lifelong learners.1 Elmborg J.; Hook S.

The choice of dimensions, materials and mode of construction and operation is entirely up to each group however, smaller apparatus is preferred as it is easier to modify and operate. In addition, each group must choose an appropriate compound(s) that would be involved in mass transfer and used for testing the mass transfer unit. The selected compounds must have low toxicity and must be readily available. In addition, it should be possible to adequately monitor the specific contaminant in the School of Engineering laboratories or other laboratories on the Campus.”The first attempt at inclusion of these laboratories

-oriented methodology in constructing engineering and businessapplications has grown exponentially since the early 90’s. In the object-orientedmethodology, the software design focuses on objects instead of functions and functionaldecompositions. An object is introduced as a discrete entity, containing its data andfunctions. The main aspects of the object-oriented methodology includes encapsulation,inheritance and polymorphism [3]. Encapsulation refers to wrapping object attributes andbehaviors in an enclosed entity, inheritance deals with object reuse, and polymorphismconcerns with object having access to a behavior where the knowledge to the access isknown at runtime.Objects encapsulate the related attributes (data or member data) and behaviors

The persistence factors highlighted in this study include students’ motivation andcommitment to their educational goals4.MotivationStudents are motivated to enter and complete engineering programs by a myriad of sources.Parents, teachers, mentors, and even other students provide the kind of guidance and supportneeded to complete an engineering degree program5. Some students require a great deal ofsupport from teachers and mentors, while others persist on limited support or under their ownvolition. In this study, students that are motivated out of “a true sense of choice, a sense offeeling free in doing what [s/he] has chosen to do” are considered dogged6.An important aspect of motivation is found in the

this test were surprisingly accurate, considering the simplicity of the setup.Deflection values agreed with the calculated values to within 1 or 2 mm. It should be noted thatthe students did not find this exercise to be completely straight-forward. Because of the nodenumbering scheme, several made mistakes in assembling the system stiffness matrix or applyingthe boundary conditions. However, these errors provided an opportunity for teaching theimportance of checking the reasonableness of the solution. One common error involved placingthe terms of spring 4’s stiffness matrix in the wrong locations in the system matrix (as if spring 4connected nodes 3 and 4 rather than nodes 4 and 5). In this case, the calculated displacement fornode 5 was zero
