auditory, the struggle to learn fromthe traditional lecture and textbook reading format inhibits learning. Educational methods existto reach more of these students and provide an engaging, relevant learning experience for theclass as a whole. Interactive delivery of content and assessment enhance learning for manystudents. Additionally, utilizing a variety of assessment methods provides a more holistic viewof a student's mastery of concepts. Interactive web sites can be integrated into learning modulesutilized as homework or laboratory assignments within a traditional course. Another approachcould involve interacting with large databases that are accessible on the web, such as databasesrelated to patents, journal articles, genomic sequences

Recent hires (8 in total) have shifted the faculty mix to one that is now predominantly Ph.D. qualified. However, most have some industrial experience, and all have backgrounds that will help in promoting these core values and mission of the department. The old technology programs were effective in their hands-on approach in large part because of a collegial and collaborative environment that existed between faculty and the department’s highly trained technical staff. This was to be maintained in the new programs. The concerns of staff and their role in supporting the new programs was thus a

Ithad done such surveys previously as well, but never in a systematic or organized way.Eventually, a realization was reached that much of the information from the various surveys wasnot news. Seldom, if ever, is anything pointed out that was previously unknown. The strength offeeling about issues, their relative importance, is what one learns from a survey.

Small teams of students (2-3) are then given a problem tosolve using the simulation tools at their disposal.A notable feature of the course is the laboratory component, in which students gain hands-onexperience with research techniques rarely encountered in a teaching environment, especially atthe undergraduate level. While rigorous training in any single method is not possible in theavailable time, we believe that exposure to the techniques provides some practical technicaltraining, as well as providing a critical view of the research problems discussed.

In fact, many of the studies in engineering educationhave identified, among other things, the lack of hands-on laboratory experience, multi-disciplinary or systems perspective, understanding of information technology, and understandingof the importance of teamwork as shortcomings of most of the current curricula [1–8]. Also, thecomplex set of skills summarized above cannot be provided by a few courses in an engineeringcurriculum.
