Technology (ABET). The guiding principle andultimate outcome of the Engineering Partnership is accreditation of the KU programs to ABETstandards. The partnership agreement is for ten years with the first three years funded. One of themeasures of the quality of engineering education of graduates and the primary step in obtaining aProfessional Engineering (PE) license in the US is passing the Fundamentals of Engineering(FE) examination. The ability of KU graduates to pass the FE exam is a primary metric of thepartnership. The Engineering Partnership is an integrated and iterative approach to improve theoverall quality of the Faculty of Engineering. This approach emphasizes improved and updatedinfrastructure and physical resources (laboratories

Bioelectronics is a subspecialty of biomedical engineering that deals directly withsuch design and fabrication of devices, which are used in clinical diagnostics, bioinstrumentationand patient care.A portion of this course deals with teaching and familiarizing undergraduate biomedicalengineering students to the ethical implications of using biosensors both as clinical devices andenvironmental surveillance tools.

The many techniques explored by public library RA librarians can beeffectively translated for use in a nonfiction, technical literature environment. For example, atLinda Hall Library, we have adapted RA techniques and used them for selection of works for ourPeriodic Roundtable book discussions. In engineering, practitioners implement technologies withintention and consequence to human society. For this reason, we should programmaticallyencourage casual reading in addition to academic reading as part of the educational process forengineers.Readers’ Advisory: Background Readers' Advisory (RA) encompasses a range of librarian activities

It was not that long ago that early settlers took months intheir trek westward in covered wagons drawn by horses with people walking most of thedistance, taking three months to traverse the country. But today, at a moment’s notice we can flyfrom east to west in a matter of hours, without giving it any thought. In fact if the computersystem goes down in a store, no one knows what to do; they may even close the store.Today we have a burgeoning economy with fields of technology such as biotechnology andnanotechnology, fundamentally new branches of engineering.

My scores on that test also determined that engineering was best suited for my skill set and understanding. • I like breaking things to see how they work as well as building and creating new things and used to think math was fun. • It seemed like a good route for being a pilot in the military. • My associates degree was in engineering technology and I wanted to further that
