This includes globalization of manufacturingfunctions and activities, hence creating a set of new challenges to Industrial Engineers (IEs)in the organizations. Recently, we have learned that General Motors (GM) Corporation hasbeen seriously considering a dramatic change in their industrial engineering departmentsworldwide.

EconomicsAs any professor of engineering can attest, ABET 2000 has been a major topic of concern at ASEEconferences, in articles and in their engineering schools. Stevens Institute of Technology is noexception and Stevens has developed a comprehensive assessment approach to ABET 2000.III. Stevens’ Approach to ABET 2000The Stevens curriculum has traditionally been based on a broad core that provides breadth in thesciences, engineering and the humanities while at the same time, allowing for meaningfulspecialization in various engineering disciplines. Thus, Stevens’ educational objectives are expressedat the Engineering Curriculum Level to emphasize this unified approach to engineering education andto satisfy ABET 2000 Criterion 3. The individual

residents were asked to reduce the amount of bathroom water used. The reservoir came within one day of having no usable water supply, and the student’s university came close to shutting off the water supply to all dormitories. Luckily, a substantial rainfall event avoided this situation. Anticipating future droughts, City and University administrators asked local engineering firms to develop a plan to reduce the amount of water used by businesses in the area and the dorms serving the students at your university. These plans are to be implemented by the year 2020. Failure to implement these technologies results in stiff financial fines.After reading this description, the students answered questions outlined in Table 2. Thesequestions were designed

Priorstudies of people’s (children and adults) perceptions of engineering describe peoples’ ability tonotice the visible aspect of engineering created by civil (buildings, bridges), mechanical (cars,machines) and electrical engineering (electrical energy that runs our machines). An examinationof their descriptions of engineering, however, often contains misconceptions.

Only for 2000, the students who completed the 4- year program leading up to the B.S. degree are also considered.
