The approach comprises modular course pack development, suitable for alternative teaching models, such as team teaching and development of multidisciplinary courses; team projects to give students hands-on experience with embedded systems; and incorporation of innovative teaching techniques designed to facilitate and enhance the student’s learning experience. Curriculum developments focus on embedded systems and our courses. In the software engineering course, students are exploring how object-oriented development techniques can be applied to industry-oriented embedded system projects, such as pro- cess controllers for numerous appliances (e.g., washing

-world job assignments. Approach: Working along these lines, we contacted three local surveying companies5. In order to understand their business, and keeping database concepts as the key point of discussion, we spoke to their project managers. Since the profession of surveying is typically about data collection and its manipulation to generate meaningful reports, some of the questions we asked were: 1. What type of projects do they work on? 2. How is the data collected for any typical project? 3. How is the data stored, retrieved, or manipulated when needed? 4. What is the typical size of their databases? 5. What types of DBMS tools do they use

typical chemical engineering undergraduate corecurriculum has not adapted to prepare students for the multiple needs encompassed by thechemical industry. Lack of industry-relevant examples/topics and applications in the coursecontents results in less motivated and/or engaged students. Students therefore often struggleto identify with the profession and are not ready for the workforce when they graduate. ThisNSF PFE: RIEF project examines a unique experience where a student-faculty-industryintegrated community is created to help bridge the gap between industry needs and thecompetencies developed within chemical engineering programs.The project's main goal is to better understand how implementing up-to-date industryproblems into one of the

Each project lends itself tohighlighting different aspects of the design process, as well as different ways of sharingprototypes.Most modules take four laboratory periods, and the basic structure of each module is similar.During the first three lab periods students work in teams of four to build a physical device orobject. The procedures for these first three periods are fairly prescriptive and introduce studentsto new tools, components, techniques, and concepts.

One possible such change is toward student-centric learning, which can take avariety of forms. The most common of these is experiential learning, in which a student learnsthrough an experience that either consists of or mimics a “real-life” experience, such as aninternship or an industry-sponsored project. Another less common student-centric tool isdifferentiated learning or differentiated instruction, in which some aspect of the classroom istailored to the needs of specific student groups.For years, experiential learning has been at the core of engineering education through capstonecourses, labs, and real

An essential component of those projects is theuse of process simulation software (mainly Aspen), with additional support from some othermathematical software (EXCEL, MATLAB) [1]. The use of textbooks is very diverse, but someare very popular like Turton et al. [2].
