A person who claims to be a professor of a discipline shouldhave an understanding of the concepts and topics in the discipline no less than the understandingthat the students graduating in the discipline have.A comprehensive, coherent and consistent design of a relevant curriculum is a very seriousmatter.

Concerned by this troubling observation, coupled with my belief thatengineers should be able to both understand and apply mathematical concepts in theircoursework and careers, I determined to investigate the cause of the problem and, if possible,evidence a potential solution to help students transfer mathematical knowledge into an applied(engineering) context. Grounded in these observations and beliefs, this study that I have set upon seeks tofurther explore

. As indicated by the first theme, ethics is an espousedvalue, but that value is not always reflected in the curriculum. With ethics only visible in selectengineering courses, the importance of ethics to engineering education and practice might not becommunicated to students. One implication of this finding is aligning purported values withcurricular requirements. Given social-technical dualism within engineering culture and thepriority of technical subjects [26], the limited visibility of ethics or its separation from technicalcourses can continue to reinforce this false dichotomy. Another tension arises when ethics isnarrowly constrained to academic integrity. Although an important component of emphasizingethical behavior, academic integrity

Convolution for Engineers, Technologists, Scientists, and Other on-PhDs Wm. Hugh Blanton, East Tennessee State University ABSTRACT One of the more important and one of the least understood principles in electronic engineering technology is convolution. The convolution integral provides a convenient mathematical equation that expresses the output of an linear time invariant system based on an arbitrary signal, x(t), and the system's impulse response, h(t). Because the interpretation takes some effort, most instructors take advantage of the linear transformation into the frequency domain where convolution becomes simply multiplication, eg. Laplace and Fourier transforms
