, companies, and businesses, becomes anecessity to enhance engineering education. Technology education, on the other hand, is verydynamic and changes daily. At the technology education level, establishing a partnership andcollaboration with industry can help to address some of these challenges. The advantages ofuniversity-industry partnerships (UIP) are both incredible and numerous. The strength of anyuniversity's program depends on staying relevant to innovative technologies used and currentmarket trends, not only regionally but globally as well. The collaboration between PurdueUniversity Northwest (PNW) and LinMot USA is a great example of a successful university-industry partnership.

Teaching the 3 “Co’s” in the Engineering Classroom Judith R. Pearse University of MaineAbstract - The cornerstone of business success focuses around three fundamental “Co” words:Consideration; Cooperation; and Communication. Yet with so much emphasis on facts andfigures, Technology students have little or no time to learn them. Students are encouraged tobecome better-rounded by taking several humanities courses, but most technology students viewthem as a necessary evil to be endured. Through an innovative – and required – ProjectManagement class, students experience more of the “softer side” of engineering business. Role-playing, distance

Robotics as a Vehicle for Engineering Education Gregory E. Needel Rochester Institute of Technology Rochester, NY 14623An important factor in an engineering education is the students' ability to apply their theoreticalknowledge to solving real world problems. Unfortunately, many schools are unable to providefull laboratories for experimental experiences due to a variety of constraints. This is a seriousproblem for educators who wish to provide practical learning for their students. One of the morecommonly employed methods of providing a “hands-on” approach to learning is through the useof educational

Cech's research examines cultural mechanisms of inequality reproduction--specifically, how inequality is reproduced through processes that are not overtly discriminatory or coercive, but rather those that are built into seemingly innocuous cultural beliefs and practices. She investigates this puzzle through three avenues of research. First, she uses quantitative and qualitative approaches to examine inequality in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) professions--specifically, the recruitment and retention of women, LGBT, and under-represented racial/ethnic minority students and practitioners and the role of professional
