She is an ASEE PEV for General Engineering, Dr. Carpenter regularly speaks at the national level on issues related to the success of
their designs on the world around them. This is so important that theAccreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET) requires that engineering studentshave “an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs withconsideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social,environmental, and economic factors” as well as “an ability to recognize ethical and professionalresponsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider theimpact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.” [2]These requirements necessitate an understanding of engineering design as well as ethicalreasoning to make the appropriate

, 2023 A comparison study of engineering standards taught in mechanical engineering programs in two countriesAbstract Mechanical engineering standards are documented codes that enable the design processof machine elements and equipment. These internationally recognized standards are importantfor reliability, safety, productivity, and efficiency of machines and equipment. Internationalorganizations such as ISO (International Organization for Standardization), ASME (AmericanSociety of Mechanical Engineers), and several other organizations oversee and constantlyupdate these codes to keep pace with technological advancements in industry, globally.

Hopkins University Whiting School’sEngineering Management & Leadership Course Complements Senior DesignIntroduction According to the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), STEMgraduates must be “prepared with the knowledge, skills and aptitudes to meet workforcedemand” [1]. ABET adopted Engineering Criteria 2000, updated several times since, thatfocused on what students learn rather than what programs teach. The new framework includedskills such as “critical thinking, communication and teamwork” [1]. The guidelines areinfluenced strongly by industry workforce needs as hiring managers turn to ABET-accreditedprograms because they know graduates will have certain skills based on student outcomes” [1]. To prepare
, integratedesigns, and access special technologies/tools. These outcomes stem from engineering clubs, butcould also originate from many other extracurriculars. Engineering students are drawn toextracurriculars of all types [8]. Little research has focused on outcomes of engineering clubsand differences in student outcomes for specific categories of engineering clubs. This study seeksto build on current work on extracurricular participation by focusing on engineering design clubsand student perceptions of these activities. 2. METHODSThis study used a single online survey to collect data from current engineering undergraduates atDuke University, a large, four-year, largely residential and research-intensive

This is also a lab which can be undertaken in a short period (1.5 to2 weeks) by students using low-cost hardware and traditional laptops running MATLAB.Although the video frame rates are generally slow in this configuration (5 to 10 fps) the goal ofsystems integration of an AI deep learning system with a mobile robot is achieved.Figure 4: Block Diagram for Deep Learning Integration Project with Mobile Robot4.

In this plan, the UN developed 17 Sustainable DevelopmentGoals (SDGs) to address the environmental, economic, and social dimensions of sustainabledevelopment, and provide an outline for specific objectives and targets for metrics of progressfor achievement by 2030. Engineering is one of the fields that has been highlighted as integral insuccessfully achieving the SDGs [4], and as such, sustainability must be integrated intocollegiate engineering curriculum to train the next generation of professionals to meet thesegoals and rise to the future challenges.
