Moreover, even if this expertise were available, mostboards simply would not have the time to perform such evaluations.Historically, the U.S. licensure system has addressed this limitation through accreditation. Thelicensure community supported the establishment of the Engineers’ Council for ProfessionalDevelopment (ECPD) in 1932 to develop a system “whereby the progress of the young engineertoward professional standing can be recognized by the public, by the profession, and by the manhimself, through the development of technical and other qualifications which will enable him tomeet minimum professional standards.”2 ECPD was subsequently renamed the AccreditationBoard for Engineering and Technology (ABET); and while

Through these accords, participating organizations recognize the substantialequivalency of each other’s accreditation processes and of their graduates’ academic preparationto enter professional practice. Accreditation systems that are substantially equivalent havecomparable—though not necessarily identical—standards, outcomes, and processes. On the

The students were paired and exchanged resumes(CVs), biographies, and technical works such as research abstracts and design proposals.Internet cameras facilitated on-line meetings throughout the yearlong project. The two groupswere from different disciplines, thereby requiring clear English communications. Both groupsbenefited by practicing reading, writing and speaking in English through their correspondenceand online meetings. One advantage of this collaboration is that it is not

Students were asked to consider one of the initial steps within the productdevelopment process. This required them to consider the populations from which engineers needto seek input in the early stages of the technology and ring prototypes. The students thenresponded to a second electronic poll inquiring about the career readiness competencies that aremost necessary for this stage of their product design, which leads to a discussion about the socialand non-technical competencies that are so critical in early stages of a project.

Introduction In an era of ever-changing technology, American education authorities found that theelementary and high schools could not provide their students with necessary knowledge andskills of science and technology. Since 1980s, America has aggressively been improving thecurriculum of science, engineering and mathematics. Therefore, in 1985, AmericanAssociation for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) launched a long-term project called“Project 2061” that committed to reform science, mathematics and technology education.

best knowledge of the authors, this has never beenexperimented in other institutes. To provide the best learning experience for our students and totake advantage of the MakerSpace (a new facility that was recently set up in SCUPI), the idea ofa SCUPI Derby, which was modeled after the well-known US Boy Scouts’ Pinewood Derby [1],was assigned to our students as the final project. What is different from the Pinewood Derby isthat the model car of our project would be made from 3D printing instead of elaborating on apinewood block. To prepare our students for this challenging task, SolidWorks has been used asthe main design tool. Not only the concept of concurrent engineering was introduced in the earlystage of the class, but also the technology
