education has a pivotal role in this global process. Questions such as up to themoment technological education and the latest facilities are the heart of the educational process;but are these adequate? The highest skilled “technicians” are important, but global problemsolvers are necessities. This paper explores the idea that educating engineers in a multi-discipline environment has become essential.Actual curricular models will be explored in an effort to delineate future directions. Engineeringeducation, world-wide experiences and emerging global needs must be merged for a successfulfuture. Specifically, the following will be presented: x Global industries; x Communication and delivery systems; x

The Directory of College Engineering Library PersonnelIn 1948, the Executive Committee of the Engineering School Libraries Section (ESLS) of theAssociation of College and Reference Libraries (ACRL), which was chaired by Madeline Gibsonof the Michigan College of Mining and Technology, decided to compile a directory of librarystaff and faculty associated with academic engineering libraries in the U.S. and Canada. Manylibrary staff directories had been published previously but this was the first to focus onengineering libraries. The project was

In all NSF programsemphasis is on better integration research and teaching, assessment of outcomes as well as thebroader impact of the outcomes.

The Impact of Calculus Reform as Seen by Engineering Seniors Elton Graves Rose-Hulman Institute of TechnologyAbstractDuring the academic years of 2001-2003 Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology participated in aNSF sponsored project to determine The Impact of Calculus Reform on Long-term StudentPerformance. The project was broken down into three major components. The first componentwas to compare registrar data for students who had taken a traditional calculus curriculum withthose who had taken calculus in a “reformed” curriculum. The second component was aquestionnaire to discover the views of graduating seniors to the use of

sustainability across the curriculum may have surface validity, thepresenters question whether a space can be made for the teaching of sustainability in theirspecific educational context, i.e., a technologically-oriented university that is driven byengineering, physics, and similar disciplines. More specifically, the teaching philosophies heldby the engineering faculty at this educational institution may not be compatible with those of thepresenters who seek to integrate sustainability into the engineering curriculum. The purpose of this presentation will be to report on the teaching philosophies of theengineering faculty at this university as regards sustainability.

course, and several students intend to concentrate their graduatework in the fuel cell area.IntroductionToday’s cutting edge technologies are tomorrow’s commercial technologies. Fuel cells have the potential to solvemany of the dilemmas created by the energy demands of our society. With clean, quiet and efficient outputs, thepotential importance of fuel cell technology cannot be overemphasized. However, the technology is yet to mature,there are many technical problems that need to be addressed. This has created a need for qualified scientists,engineers and technologists. An important goal of this course is to train engineering technology graduates, both atthe undergraduate and graduate levels, who can contribute in an immediate and meaningful

However, we have followed a path towards full integration of greendesign and sustainability into our two semester series on chemical engineering design. Originally, a free standing elective course at the senior/graduate student level was created and offered twice.The course introduced students to green design, green chemistry, life cycle assessment evaluation, and criticalreading of peer reviewed literature on these topics. The students worked in teams to do one green design to replacean older technology and also attempted to perform one gate-to-gate life cycle assessment of a process.

For minority students, these factors may involve obstaclesdifferent than those of their mainstream peers. Minority undergraduate student populations inthe disciplines of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics lag significantly behind itsrepresentation in the overall population. Data from the U.S. census bureau and other studiesindicate the population of African-American and Latinos to be between 12% and 13%, respec-tively.

The course is required of all undergraduate students in MechanicalEngineering, Electrical Engineering and Robotics/Mechatronic Systems Engineering. Thecourse is centered on a recently developed commercial technology where the students are taskedwith analyzing that technology and associated intellectual property. They are then tasked withproposing ventures in other markets using that technology and to do so in business terms.Assessment results indicate an increased level of self-confidence and self-efficacy in relation todeveloping and presenting product ideas.
