The engineering curriculum at TARC isheavily analytical and demanding, but generally lacking exposure to modern technology andequipment.The formal agreement was approved initially as a transitional arrangement for two years, pendingdevelopments, which, it was hoped, would lead to an integrated SHU/TARC dual award fordelivery in Malaysia. It has since been extended until the summer of 2006, and last year sawdevelopments of additional top-up degrees in Automation and Manufacturing Systems. To date thestudents’ results have been excellent, their performance more than justifying SHU’s confidence inthe academic standards of the TARC awards. The pass rate has been

The students take roughly 40% of their humanities and socialscience requirements (4 courses) in interdisciplinary HSS courses designed for engineeringstudents. (The remaining 60% of the HSS hours are selected from those offered by departmentsin the College of Arts and Sciences and designed for a general student population.) The STScourse work provides an integrative framework and intellectual foundation that help studentsdevelop an in-depth understanding of the contextual aspects of engineering practice.STS also manages the undergraduate thesis project that has been a graduation requirement ofSEAS for nearly 100 years and a major part of the engineering curriculum since

Furthermore, as indicated by students’ survey results in two consecutiveyears, significant improvements in this laboratory were accomplished by introducing traditionalmanufacturing processes through the book-making processes. Finally, the laboratory equipmentpurchased to run the book-making experiment was inexpensive thus making it affordable forimplementation in many other institutions.Bibliography1.

difficulty.One tool for promoting first-to-second year undergraduate student retention is the use of a first-year seminar [5]. Most first-year seminars take place in small, discussion based settings and theyconsist of curricular and co-curricular topics that are designed to help students integrate bothacademically and socially into college life [6]. Due to the high number of credit hours requiredfor students in the GVSU School of Engineering, the first year curriculum is being reviewed toidentify how to include a mandatory first year seminar in the program plans. Rather than waitingfor the planning and approving of a fist year seminar, the learning skills modules wereimplemented in an Introduction to Engineering course during the Fall 2018 semester.The

With all of this research, Ni and colleagues notedthat for this effort to “have real impact on teaching practices, we eventually need computinginstructors to adopt those innovations and integrate them into their own classrooms” [1, p. 544].Recent efforts, such as the Evidence-Based Teaching Practices in CS SIGCSE Workshop [2],have tried to bridge this gap between published innovations and their adoption in the classroom.Morrison et al.

The whole college or school/department needs to determine how standards education should be integrated into the curriculum. An individual educator maybe working with a class that has relevant topics related to standards. This should be a starting point to work with colleagues in this class and make strides working with other colleagues with other classes.

The prospect of using emerging technologies toaddress sustainable development has the definite potential of exciting undergraduate students. Several initiatives in this regard are already underway. Stanford University, for instance, isplanning to provide an innovative experience to students by establishing a residential program ina newly constructed “green” dormitory building. The building is expected to showcase sustain-able concepts related to energy, water systems, vehicle refueling, air quality, etc. and serve as a“live-in laboratory.” The new thrusts are driving curriculum reform.

interventions have proven effective atachieving myriad ethics-related learning goals [3-6]. However, as a cursory review of thesearticles will reveal, the specific learning objectives and associated strategies for integrating ethicsinto the engineering curriculum vary widely. As a result, there is not a single proven recipe forsuccess in promoting engineering students’ ethical formation, nor is there an agreed upon end.In 2001, Haws [7] identified six prominent strategies utilized by engineering instructors forachieving ethics-related learning objectives. These included (1) professional codes of ethics, (2)humanist readings, (3) theoretical grounding, (4) ethical heuristics, (5) case studies, and (6)service learning. More recently, Hess and Fore [8
