The Research Experiences forUndergraduates (REU) component was envisioned to promote faculty-student interaction andacademic integration through laboratory and field research.

While ASEE has classical engineering/engineering technology disciplinary divisions,it also has established interdisciplinary divisions such as Experimental and Laboratory-OrientedStudies, Instrumentation, and Design in Engineering Education. ASEE members can join up tosix divisions, so many members are active in the interdisciplinary divisions. The increasinglymultidisciplinary nature of programs has also received considerable attention at many ABETmeetings and is part of ABET’s Strategic Goals, Objectives and Initiatives.ASEE’s diverse involvement goes even deeper. The Multidisciplinary Engineering ConstituentCommittee (MECC) seeks to promote and develop multidisciplinary engineering education. Itdoes so by assisting in the

Since the dam is located close to theuniversity campus, it was reasoned that the dam could be used to provide unique experiences forstudents to learn about hydraulic structures, flow measurements, water quality, limnology, andaquatic ecosystems.The dam owner was happy to allow access to the dam for educational opportunities. In addition,he indicated that there was

participants.Summary A web seminar can be a cost-effective and efficient means of communicating informationto a geographically and economically diverse audience. The needs of the audience and the localresource requirements must be considered carefully to make the seminar a success. An outline ofhow to give a web seminar was given based on our experience developing a web seminar fromconcept through implementation. This outline should help others to successfully develop anddeliver a web seminar of their own.Acknowledgements This work was supported in part by the National Science Foundation’s Course,Curriculum and Laboratory Improvement program under grant no.

are faculty from those disciplines. Consequently,there is a limited emphasis on examples and problem solving within the particular discipline ofthe instructor and section. However, the course sections are similar enough that students cancross over sections. This is also important for engineering students who have not declared aspecific major yet.Most believe that a “learn by doing” approach must be an integral part to an introductorycomputing course. The GEEN 1300 course incorporates a lab component, replacing a 1-hourlecture meeting with a 2-hour workshop in a computer laboratory. The workshops are tutorial innature with some open-ended, exploratory content. Lab sections are mentored by upper-classundergraduate students who were successful

, “in addition to imparting general concepts and knowledge, education must alsoprovide students with the overall image of manufacturing systems actually operated inindustries”4. Recent notable increases in co-operative education programs, industrial internships,design laboratories, and industry-based design problems are attempts to bridge this gap. Many ofthese may be viewed as a return to “apprenticeships.” Over 60% of the Industrial andManufacturing Engineering students at Wichita State University have had at least one semesterof co-operative education or equivalent industrial experience. This exposure is valuable in manyrespects but our experience indicates that this does not directly lead to an integration ofengineering knowledge and skills

Although less energy efficient than closed-cycle, the condensed water of this open-cycle process is free of salts and may be used to supplement fresh water supplies.Previous OTEC developments include a 50-kW demonstration plant aboard a Navy-barge in1971. It provided proof-of-concept closed-cycle feasibility by yielding a net 15 kW. TheJapanese later installed closed-cycle plants at Nauru and Tokunoshima that yielded a net 10 kWand 32 kW, respectively.
