While specificclasses in this experience are typical of an industrial engineering curriculum, the lessons learnedand benefits could translate to other disciplines.Introduction The use of Project Based Learning (PBL) has contributed to Cal Poly’s reputation of“learn by doing” for many years. As part of the Industrial Engineering (IE) curriculum at CalPoly, students work in small groups with local companies on facilities related projects. Theunique aspect of these projects is that students from a senior class and students from asophomore class are partnered together to work on these industry based projects. These

The architecture course does not cover general software engineering topics (such astesting, estimation, and management), but it does provide students in the capstone course withfoundation skills for software design and development. This type of architecture and designcourse should be an appropriate second level course for engineers with a minor emphasis ofsoftware.IntroductionThis paper addresses the underlying issue of where and how and why architecture and design fitinto the curriculum of courses for majors in computing and for service computing courses, whichare often taken by engineering and science majors.

A CBE approach can be applied where competencies aredefined (1) to create a new program, (2) for an existing curriculum without significant changes,or (3) to drive curricular redesign where gaps are identified and learning outcomes are re-writtento align with published competency frameworks.

This paper offers suggestions, from the perspective of what studentsreally need to know as they begin their professional careers, for technical instructors new to thefield of ethics, focusing on the following: resources, approaches, and case methodology.ContextWhile many colleges and universities offer ethics classes through specialized departments, thispaper advocates an “ethics across the curriculum” (EAC) approach. Similar to the writing acrossthe curriculum movement of years past, EAC proponents integrate the study of ethics intocourses in the major, rather than farming it out to a philosophy department.

while it has become increasingly complex for those who produce and maintain technology. It is also pervasive and an integral part of growing up and being educated. As such the need for programs in technological literacy is diminished 5. The use of information technology in the workplace and the need to prepare students for careers that use information technology has long been the cornerstone of policies for the use of TL in raising productivity. This seems indisputable, but the market is a much stronger driver than policy in achieving this. Where policy can help is in reducing the digital divide that leave students from low income backgrounds stranded in low income jobs.5 It is also helpful in

Outcomes by their very nature describes what students should know or can do by thetime of graduation. The implication is therefore, that lifelong learning and a global perspectivemust originate within the 4-year engineering curriculum/program. The
