students are enrolling in the Distance Engineering Degree Program without a priorengineering background. The growth in the distance program, along with the changingdemographics, presents a challenge to ensure that the same quality of student learning can beachieved. Two primary purposes for this study are 1) to compare the preference for variousteaching methods between on-campus and distance learners and 2) to better understand thebackground and motivations for distance learners in the mechanical engineering department.Ibrahim and Morsi1 performed an early survey of distance engineering programs, focusingprimarily on Electrical and Computer Engineering. At the time, they found that most distanceengineering/technology courses were offered at the

Solutions to 21st-century challenges will involve electronic systems intertwined withstructural, chemical, and biological systems. One example, advances in nano- and nanobio-engineering, will integrate knowledge from information, electrical, physical, cognitive and socialsciences. The solutions are thus inherently multi-disciplinary—involving one or moredisciplines with similar approaches to problem solving—and trans-disciplinary—involving twoor more disciplines

In addition to being a practicing physician, he leads a research laboratory focused on issues re- lated to bacterial fouling of materials. In the context of human health, the work concentrates on infections of implanted medical devices. In other contexts, his work focuses on ways to prevent, or even facili- tate, bacterial interactions with engineered surfaces. Examples of the former include preventing fouling of industrial surfaces. An example of the latter is the development of new technologies to enhance the detection of low-level bacterial contamination in clinical samples and food.Prof
