The development of the Rowan Engineering Curricula began in 1994 andincluded the input of an advisory committee of technology industry leaders. Thecoursework and laboratories were planned and are being implemented with a strongcomponent of industrial partnerships and industrial experiences for students and faculty. Rowan has taken a multi-faceted approach to academic/industrial partnerships.Rowan faculty teaches courses on company sites. Many of these courses

preference for active over reflective learning with no significantdifference between the mean preference (p = 0.685). The strong emphasis on laboratoryexperiences in Engineering Technology curricula supports active learning styles. Contrary topopular anecdote, these results indicate that students do not exhibit a strong preference for activelearning over reflective learning at the early stages of their undergraduate academic career. Thissuggests that active learning experiences including laboratory exercises and interactive problemsessions may provide a slight learning advantage over reflective activities (homework, reports)for students at this stage. Active learners typically prefer group learning over individual learningactivities.Each group in

While teaching the basics of theCartesian coordinate system a few simple numerical control machine codes are also explained. Thisenables students to compose the code required to complete simple movements of a cutter andunderstand concepts of computer related manufacturing.

We aredeveloping two types experiences. In one model, the laboratory or project-based experience is asimple but rather complete aeronautical vehicle, at the scope that can be successfully developedby students, but with an interdisciplinary perspective. Our preliminary selection of these projectsincluded: ≠ The development of an RC lighter than air vehicle, capable of being flown under radio control over a closed course, teaching equilibrium and simple flight mechanics. ≠ The design and testing of water rockets
