integration andtroubleshooting. This is also apparent in current K-12 curricula which lack hands-on engineeringconcepts due to time and resource constraints imposed on science educators by administratorsand state standards. The cumulative effect of these approaches to education over a student’s pre-college academic lifetime results in: 1) a shortage in career-ready high school graduates; and 2) alimited number of college bound students pursuing STEM education and careers. Moreover,those graduates who seek STEM education may have strong analytical skills, but lack the criticalthinking, hands-on and practical skills needed for scientific applications, i.e. engineering orexperimentation. This serious problem is further elevated by the sporadic

A co-op program with four phases and multipleactivity/training segments at a large teaching hospital has been very successful with students fromthree universities in U.S., France and Canada. Other students did their co-op at a research center,with service contractors, or with project teams on commissioning and installation of specializedequipment. These students generally prepared a written report with appropriate approvalemployers.With the proposed co-op model, graduates are better trained in the BME field. They get valuableexperience of understanding real life problems and participating in solving them. They can assestheir own interests and develop necessary practical skills to succeed in their careers. Some studentscan

ABET should allow accreditation of engineering programs of the same name at the baccalaureate and graduate levels in the same department to recognize that education through a “professional” master’s degree produces an AME, an accredited “master” engineer. 3. Engineering schools should more vigorously exploit the flexibility inherent in the outcomes-based accreditation approach to experiment with novel models for baccalaureate education. ABET should ensure that evaluators look for innovation and experimentation in the curriculum and not just hold institutions to a strict interpretation of the guidelines as they see them. 4.

persistence of unfilled posts in programming and ITfields originates more from business hiring practices and a perceived “skill deficit”among degree holders and potential applicants (2, 5). Regardless of the veracity of theclaims, researchers have been working during the last 15 years to identify and overcomepotential barriers to careers and study in computer science. Following recommendationsfrom national reports (1, 15), mediation efforts have adroitly focused on K-12 education,measuring potential bottlenecks in the pipeline for programmers (4, 22). These effortshave also spurred novel solutions to increase interest and skill in computer programmingamong students, ranging from content-based solutions to inventive graphical learning
