Vaughn, P.E., Chiang Lin, Ph.D. Southern Illinois University EdwardsvilleIntroductionA hands-on laboratory education has been considered a necessary part of teaching assignments inundergraduate engineering education. Since the 1980’s, many changes have been made to theclassroom teaching due to the advancement of personal computers. In recent years, the usage ofweb-based technology has brought even more potential to improve teaching, especially invarious

Although many of these workforcestudies are qualitative, with generalizability yet to be proven, it appears that the strongest andmost powerful factors that motivate engineers to persist in the workforce are inconsistent withwhat drives the major challenges that face engineering today. Given the importance of thesegrand challenges [1], engineering must attract individuals who are invested in the benefits andoutcomes of meeting those challenges.Among women engineers, motivation and opportunity to pursue social good are especiallyimportant. Although key predictors of female retention in the engineering workforce includehigh self

and Applied Scienceand local industry about the need to provide engineers with a practical set of management skillsprior to undertaking early management assignments. High technology companies, such as thethen Martin Marietta, were concerned that many engineers were entering management positionsresponsible for project or development teams or promoted to managers of small departments orwork groups with little preparation. Ironically, these opportunities sometimes came as a rewardfor a job well done for engineering contributions but placed the individual in an awkwardposition.

The National Academy of Engineering highlighted three significantbenefits of improving the public understanding of engineering: 1. Sustaining the U.S. capacity for technological innovation. A better understanding of engineering would educate policy makers and the public as to how engineering contributes to economic development, quality of life, national security, and health. 2. Attracting young people to careers in engineering
surveyconducted by Deloitte Research1showed that about 2 million jobs and $356 billion in operationswould be moved to overseas within the next five years. Forrester Research1 study concurs withthe previous studies. They forecast that by 2015 about 3.3 million high-tech and service-industry jobs would be outsourced offshore. Forrester Research points out that such jobsamount to about $136 billion in wages. Meta Group Inc.2 estimates that offshore spending ininformation technology by U.S. businesses will reach about $10 billion this year and that the useof offshore information technology services will grow about 20% annually through 2008. Thetrend in outsourcing of jobs does not stop with jobs related to computer engineering alone. Arecent report by
