The second one wouldmeasure skills and knowledge at the end of a period of instruction and could potentially providea diagnostic for professionals on strengths and weaknesses. There is concern that we need todevise a strategy that allows such tests to grow and change as advances in technology changethat ways that people work.

On January5, 2010, the Wall Street Journal reported that CareerCast.com had identified Software Engineeras number 2 in its list of best jobs in the United States in 2009, based on five criteria:environment, income, employment outlook, physical demands, and stress.2 It seems as thoughevery week there is some incident reported in which people were inconvenienced or harmed bysoftware failures. Clearly, development of programs that provide the kinds of education andtraining needed to produce the software engineers who will develop high quality reliablesoftware is very important for the future of our society.Software

The prerequisites were courses in materialsscience and physical electronics. Much of the course was designed to introduce students to someof the less well-known, but technologically and commercially important materials such assemiconducting oxides, ferroic and ferromagnetic compounds. The students were assigned areading in a basic text1 which provided some of the basic physical science for the paper to beassigned. This was followed by a lecture expanding on the content of a particular paper. Thepaper of the week was then assigned. Peer-reviewed articles from journals such as Journal of theAmerican Ceramic

ateach stage of the design development process. Students are introduced to codes of ethicsdeveloped by professional societies and also companies to assist engineers in answeringquestions which may arise in their profession. Case studies, specifically relevant inengineering design and product development situations are presented. Guidelines are used toseparate known facts and assumptions while reaching solutions in ethics cases. Theresponsibility of engineers towards their employers and issues of their personal conscienceare explained through examples.Reasons we need to discuss ethicsEthical and legal problems arise due to a number of reasons. In recent years, there has beena technological explosion, particularly as related to information

Pfister Professor of Mechanical Engineering North Dakota State University Fargo, North Dakota 58105 Five years ago the curriculum in Mechanical Engineering at NorthDakota State University was long on theory courses and short on ex-perimental or professional learning. At least, this was the consen-sus of the E.C.P.D. reaccreditation team which gave us the incentiveto ultimately organize a 10 quarter-credit hour design program span-ning the last five quarters (1~ 1, 3, 3, 2 credits sequentially) ofthe undergraduate curriculum.

all the schools - elementary to university aswell as developed countries to underdeveloped countries, managed to finish the semester and/orschool year. To convert a conventional face-to-face class into online instruction mode takesseveral semesters and need resources. Moreover, a huge percent of university faculties is notinterested in taking virtual classes. There are several reasons behind it such as: (1) lack ofcomputer knowledge, (2) takes long time to develop an online course, (3) need more time to giveonline assignments, maintain webpage, and answering a huge number of emails, (4) no propertraining, and (5) lack of resources. The scientific laboratories are more difficult to convert intoonline mode. The Science, Technology, Engineering

American Society for Engineering Education’s Prism [3] magazine provides further evidenceof this trend. Most companies and organizations no longer conduct business from a regional oreven U.S. perspective, but rather from a global perspective. Because the IE field traverses boththe engineering and business world, it is particularly important that IE curricula provide studentswith this advantage.A challenge facing engineering educators is how best to take advantage of the global, flattened,technology-enabled playing field to improve engineering education, and as Friedman, and othershave proposed, enable the U.S. to retain its lead in innovation and university education andresearch.

processes’, such as has been taught for manyyears on many campuses. Such an option would also draw upon other commonly offeredcourses in mechanics, materials, electronics, quality control and engineering economics. Theinvestment for the minimalist scenario is quite small The ‘process engineering’ course in this scenario should focus on product engineering andprocess engineering. The product engineering portion of this course would concentrate on partsthat would be fabricated and subsequently assembled into usable products. Parts would bedefined in some detail as to features, dimensions, tolerances, fits, finishes and the processesthrough which the material transformations are affected.
