Organization of American States(OAS)’s ‘Engineering for the Americas’ conference in Lima Peru (Nov. 29 – Dec. 3, 2005) [2].Friedman, a New York Times journalist, asserts that the world is flat because of political changesand information technologies which have leveled the playing field and allow individuals fromany country to compete equally in the global market. The message conveyed at the Limaconference was that in order to compete globally Latin America must produce more engineers,and those engineers must be well trained – like India, which, for Friedman, is the prime exampleof how the world is now flat.Of course, the world is not flat for everyone, as evidenced by the digital divide. While the digitaldivide is a relatively new concept, it is based

Although a typical freshman has not experienced such adrastic difference in their life, they still experience a slow metamorphosis every daybecause of new and clever uses of computers. Instead of exploring the ever-changingimpact of computers using a few sources, we spread the discussion throughout thesemester, and based it on our personal experiences, as everybody is likely to have a storyto tell.

student design projectThe ABET requirement for engineering standards is in Criterion 4 and specifically calls for the use of standards in design. TheCanadian requirement is broader although it is also focused around design.Relevant standards should be consulted early in the design process and since it is reasonable to assume many companies will wanttheir products to be accepted in the global market, students could be expected to look to see if their product is likely to be covered by aEuropean Union (EU) Directive [10]. According to the most recent report by the U.S. Trade Representative, the EU continues to bethe U.S.’s largest trading partner and, as such, is a large market for US goods and services.The National Institute of Standards and

during the comment period that questioned “theviability of single-sex programs such as an educational science program targeted at youngwomen and designed to encourage their interest in a profession in which they areunderrepresented,” these agencies did agree that “[s]uch courses may, under appropriatecircumstances, be permissible as part of a remedial or affirmative action program.”24Unfortunately, these agencies did not provide an explanation of what such “appropriatecircumstances” might be. Nevertheless, an educational institution that can clearly articulate asound rationale for offering an engineering outreach program for only young women can proceedwith some confidence that such a program likely will survive scrutiny under Title IX.Separate

In our initial research to determine current and future trends in engineering programs, wefound many and different views of the future demands and practice of engineering. It wasdecided to research and survey several significant areas for this proposal: (1) Academicinstitutions that are currently reviewing trends towards new educational approaches; (2)Corresponding technical articles describing the trends; (3) Current efforts in academe;and (4) Industrial sources (both manufacturing and engineering-based) that have adirect/current need for engineering.

The week before reading Foucault, students wereintroduced to liberative pedagogies in class and through course readings1 and a reflective essay.On the first day of class, students were introduced to the syllabus as one representation of what isimportant in thermodynamics, not the definitive word.In a reflective essay and class discussion, students considered the relationship between powerand knowledge. The essay prompt read: “What is/are the relationship(s) between power andknowledge? Is knowledge the same thing as truth, or how does it differ?

extends back to the 1930’s when the school was a junior college. The University wasknown as The University of Tennessee Junior College, and the engineering program consisted ofthe first two years towards a baccalaureate degree in the student’s chosen field of engineering.The University became a four-year college in 1951. Most degree programs were transformed intofull four-year baccalaureate programs at that time. The engineering program remained a two-year transfer program with most students transferring to the University of Tennessee atKnoxville.In the fall of 1967, a formal proposal was developed by the UT Martin Department ofEngineering and submitted to the College of Engineering at Knoxville for an engineering degreewith majors from one of
