this in mind, an investigation into the current aspects of Quality/Process Management courses as taught within an Engineering Management (EM) graduateeducation was undertaken. The fundamental objective of the current research rests in exploringthe structure of Quality/ Process Management courses that are taught as part of EM graduatecurriculum. A set of Quality and Process Management topics were identified and subsequentlyprioritized, using a survey of the Quality instructors or EM Program Directors, to assess theirrelative criticality. The findings of this research are expected to provide a guideline to EMcurriculum developers to evaluate and improve the structure of their own Quality /ProcessManagement courses, and in the process improve the

15 teams. Through the use of iterative inquiry,student teams in the virtual laboratory project utilize their run data in the constant creation,revision and utilization of modeling components. This leads to a wide variety of project solutionpaths. Overall, this preliminary result shows that virtual laboratory project experience isvaluable to students, as it provide an environment that affords the development of rich model-based solutions. It must be kept in mind that physical laboratories will always have an importantplace in the curriculum of an engineering student, and as such, it is encouraged that both types oflaboratory projects are utilized.References 1.

To best prepare our students for careers in their chosen field, it is essentialthat they be exposed to topics in the field early in their academic career. The significantrelationship between satisfaction with the introductory course and career efficacy is alsointuitive. Those that enjoyed an introductory industrial engineering course will likely havehigher confidence that industrial engineering is the right career field for them.In conclusion, the design of introductory courses in industrial engineering was shown to have asignificant impact on students’ career efficacy. Therefore, it is important to design the courseswith student outcomes in mind, particularly their preparation

Our focus will be ondelivering information about those resources and instruction on why, how and when to use themwith regards to a student or researcher's individual needs. Computers and other electronicdevices that break into the marketplaces will be our method of discovering rich scholarlyresources.

Provision should be made to minimize issues related to differences between the instructor’s and OLI’s approaches.• OLI is effective in statics concept instruction, but less so in developing problem-solving skills.

The problem wasdefined in the context of a 2040 urban rescue. There were four different disciplines involved—industrial and systems engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical and computer engineering,and aerospace engineering. Tensions arose throughout the project among the mechanical andaerospace engineers, including instances where I was left unsure of how I fit besides sharing myknowledge about anthropometric dimensions when designing with ergonomics in mind

involved being able to iterate on a design—starting small, failing, and thenadjusting prototype ideas. The students recalled another engineering faculty member’s visit toclass and her suggestion to prototype using low cost materials (“get a cardboard box and putsome remote cars in there and see if people use it”) rather than giving the students a big budgetto start. They came back to this idea a few times; they want to fail and try again, but they alsowant a variety of projects.How do you describe the engineering design process?As faculty, we were mindful that the course was about engineering design and not tinkering or“making.” Although the students’ desire to “make” helped them engage in the course and the
