The emphasis on fundamentals isintended to prepare students for dealing with the rapid pace technological change and theinterdisciplinary demands of today’s and tomorrow’s, engineering practice. The laboratory and designportions of the program provide the student with a balanced perspective of the realities and limitationsrequired for practical problem solving.The professional practice of engineering requires skill and resourcefulness in applying science andtechnology to the solution of problems in our complex technological society. The successful engineermust possess a thorough understanding of social and economic forces and have an appreciation ofcultural and humanistic traditions. The

. Despite industrial trends and employers’expectations, a gap exists between the mastery of teaming skills expected and thosedemonstrated by new engineering graduates. Employers expect college students to possess theseskills and often complain that college graduates have not learned the team approach to problemsolving.1 Employers, along with the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET),expect better preparation in these areas to be incorporated into the engineering curriculum at thecollege and university level. 1, 2 ABET stated in EC 2000, Criteria for Accrediting Programs,that one program outcome and assessment measure for engineering programs is to demonstratethat their graduates have an ability to function on multi

It is predicted that by 2020, nanoscaleengineering will bring about mass applications in industry, medicine, and informationtechnology.1 As a result, a growing number of scientists and engineers with the ability to createinnovative designs using nanotechnology will be required. This is creating an urgent need forcurriculum enhancements right now in STEM education. This paper focuses on the impact thatnanotechnology will have in the area of microelectronics, one of the main economic drivers ofthis information technology age. The ability to shrink electronic devices down to submicrondimensions has made possible Very

, understanding of the basics, and oftenhard work. That’s why many students avoid it. History is full of examples of scientists,researchers, and engineers who avoided critical thinking in their careers. Those who did applycritical thinking, contributed to the progress in their disciplines. It may seem that lack of criticalthinking occurred only in the past. We often are so deeply engaged in solving problems that weoverlook that there often is another possible approach to a problem. In the bibliography1-9, severalreferences are given to publications that deal with critical thinking as a way of living. In thispaper, only limited experiences are presented that relate to a few courses in the MechanicalEngineering Technology Department at Purdue University.2

He was also the leading German proponent of reform of engineering educationaway from overly abstract and theoretical instruction, equal standing for newer technicaluniversities with traditional institutions of higher learning, and improvement in theprofessional and social standing of the engineer in German society.Riedler’s report singled out programs at Cornell University, Massachusetts
