These activities could be incorporated into other courses and classroomswith small modifications.EML Example 1: Engineering Probability and StatisticsEngineering Probability and Statistics is a required course for Civil, Construction and ElectricalEngineering majors at The Citadel. Topics of the course include data collection and presentation,descriptive statistics, probability, sampling distributions, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing,regression and correlation, and analysis of variance.

specific and different orientations, including very specialized courses and occasionally peri-technological courses. This module is conceived in order to allow a certain flexibility to the student whom will beable to make pertinent choices according to his career goals. The third module, generally called integration module,allows the student to realize supervised practical work either in a training form or in engineering project in industry,in the specialized field that this master has trained him for. This program structure, other than being modular, also distinguishes itself from the traditional programs becauseit allows the student to receive an official recognition at each step of his studies. Thus, when the student hascompleted his basic

The coursework component in thePBL subject is essential in constructing knowledge and skills scaffolding to enable students totackle any assigned open-ended projects and problems. In some ways, the PBL subject with acoursework component resembled a mini curriculum-based PBL model.In the undergraduate engineering curriculum there are subjects which integrate knowledgeand subjects which are narrowly discipline focused. It is the former that that it is most suitablefor a PBL delivery because of the its nature in integrating knowledge it allows thedevelopment of open-ended student

This concept is an inversion of the traditional laboratory curriculum paradigm.The current situation is that freshman programs focus either on a design project or discipline-specific experiments that may not be cohesively integrated. In real-world settings engineerswork in multidisciplinary teams on a variety of complex problems. The fundamental principlesof measurement and their application are crucial to the solution of these problems.IntroductionThe College of Engineering at Rowan University was created through a $100 million gift fromHenry and Betty Rowan in 1992.

EMprograms are generally embedded within the departments of industrial engineering or systemsengineering, depending on the universities (Farr and Kotnour, 2005). However, in order to reflectthe gradual shift from manufacturing to turn-key systems integrators in a global economicenvironment, many universities have aligned their EM programs with their systems engineeringprogram (Farr and Beude, 2003).Research Model and MethodologyThe objective of the research is to revisit and update the graduate EM program at Stevens inorder to make it more appealing to both the students and the industry employers alike

Not addressing these challenges can thus hinder institutions’ ability to developsocially and environmentally responsible engineers. Due to technological and scientificdevelopments, the engineering curriculum is frequently expected to cover more and moretechnical content, which makes the incorporation of other aspects more challenging [10]. Ahorizontal integration of social and environmental justice is an effective approach to dealing withthis issue, and it simultaneously helps defuse faculty resistance to non-technical content[11,12,13].

Despite this fact, the vast majority of high school graduateswould like to study courses that are related to SET subjects.The problems of existing higher education SET programmes in Afghanistan are thefollowing: i. Weak education in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) at school level due to lack of an integrated approach. Science, technology, engineering and mathematics are taught as four separate subjects rather than an integration of STEM into a cohesive learning paradigm based on real-world applications. ii. Graduates from high schools in countries such as Afghanistan do not have the same exposure to the role of science and engineering
