follows that surveyingshould be included in a standard Civil Engineering curriculum. The surveying topics covered onthe FE exam are included in Table 1, and all of these are covered by Clemson’s Geomaticscourse.The Importance of Surveying Combined with Spatial Data TopicsIt is encouraging that 65% of schools reviewed in the analysis require at least one surveyingcourse in their Civil Engineering curriculum. However, to truly give students a solid foundationin surveying education, it is valuable to expose them to related technology such as GeographicInformation Systems, Global Positioning Systems, and Digital Terrain Modeling. Thesetechnologies utilize spatial data to help make informed engineering decisions and may be evenmore likely than

Specifically, information about careers in STEM(e.g., what kind of problems do these people solve, responsibilities of the job, workenvironment); the requirements needed to be able to succeed in a STEM career (e.g., educationand employable skills).

mechanical and electrical engineering graduates become practicing engineers, many areengaged in industrial automation projects. Knowledge of industrial motion control technology isan absolute must since industrial automation is designed primarily around specialized motioncontrol hardware and software. Industry needs engineers who can do system design andintegration using motion controllers and Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) as the primarybuilding blocks for automation/mechatronics applications. They are not expected to designcontrollers, control algorithms or interface electronic circuits at the board level or programmicroprocessors such as Arduino 4,5 . Instead, they need to combine theoretical and practicalknowledge to select industrial
