Women Engineers in the Middle East from Enrollment to Career: A Case StudyAbstractThis study investigates the status of women engineers in Lebanon as a case study in theMiddle East region. Through this study, the author investigated the following questions:What are the motives behind female‟s decisions to choose engineering major? What arethe difficulties that female engineers have encountered in their transition from universityto workplace? And what are the perceptions of female regarding the essential skills for asuccessful engineering career? An online survey with Likert-scaled items was completedby 327 female engineers graduated from different universities in Lebanon and working indifferent locations around the world

specific data input of a flip-flop if it is necessary to apply a logical 0 to that input to see the flip-flop go through this transition.For example, to see an RS flip-flop go through α transition, 0 to 1, it is necessary to applya logical 1 to the S input and a logical 0 to the R input. Therefore, the α transition isconsidered an essential transition for the S input and a zero transition for the R input.The excitation equation of a data input of a flip-flop consists of two parts separated by a“+” sign. The first part represents a list of the essential transitions of this input. Thesecond part starts with “D.C.”, an abbreviation of “don’t care”, followed by a list of thedon’t care transitions of this input included between brackets. The

this effort has strengthened this writer’s conclusion thatthe civil engineering curriculum model of the 1950's which has been used with little changeother than that caused by the incorporation of the general education requirements, is notapplicable today. It must be changed to include transportation engineering as a significant partof the program. The second category of opposition includes those areas which have developed over theyears and which may be present at most institutions. First, the broadening of the field oftransportation engineering from highway engineering in the 1950's to the intelligenttransportation systems of today and the associated explosion of the body of knowledge in the

Geometric Properties of Shapes moduleV. Design and Analysis ToolsA typical module in VLSM is equipped with a design and analysis tool that allows a student todevelop a design model for which it provides a step by step solution. An example of this is theShape Design and Analysis Tool (S-DAT) in the Geometric Properties of Shapes module.Developed using Sun’s JDK 1.2 software, S-DAT can be used to draw a rather complexgeometric shape, and to obtain its properties such as centroid, moments of inertia, product ofinertia, etc. Figure 5-a shows the graphical user interface (GUI) for S-DAT. The icons on theright show the ten built-in templates. They can be used individually or in combination togenerate a more complex shape. (a
