resources of the DEEE laboratories/research groups, fundingfrom professors projects, and self-funding by team members. Our plan is to use preliminaryresults from VIP work to apply for sponsorship from grants and/or industry. Additionally, webelieve that this area of funding is one of the key opportunities to develop as part of aninternational VIP consortium. From our point of view, developing collaboration with VIP teamsat other institutions should help to not only to widen the available pool of funding options, butalso to increase the chances of successful applications, therefore benefiting all participatinginstitutions.VIP Director: Winston S.

andexpectations for the profession). Today, after the launch of EC 20002 and the Engineer of 20203,negotiations between the culture/utility function continue. Leyden and Schneider recognize EC 2000’s Criterion 3 as an important driver in thechanges in FYC programs, and as an important factor within the culture/utility debate. They notethat of the 11 abilities specified for graduating engineers, only 4 of them are primarily technical.They divide the abilities in the following ways1: Engineering programs must demonstrate that their graduates have a) an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering b) an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data

. Suppose R1 andR2 are two rankings from a set of samples S = (a0 , a1 , . . . , aN −1 ). Defining the rank of ai in Rjas PRj (ai ), the RankDistance RankDist(R1 , R2 ) between R1 and R2 is: |PR1 (ai ) − PR2 (ai )| ai ∈S RankDist(R1 , R2 ) = , (10) Nwhere N is the total number of samples.From Equation 10 we can see that the smaller the RankDist(R1 , R2 ) is, the closer R1 and R2are. In our experiments, we compare our method with U.S. News’ results using RankDist. Aswe said before, we are not taking U.S

devise equitable system(s) that allow faculty to gain theengineering experience they desperately need, in order to keep up with newdevelopments in their areas of specialization. Thus asserting the view thatengineering faculty “with practical experience under their belt” would, in general,make better teachers. Administrator (deans, chairs, and decision makers in general)should investigate ways for helping new faculty members gain industrial experienceby spending a semester on-site at a cooperating industry, using summer release timeto work within industry, or allow for a dual appointment, say fifty-fifty, i.e., fiftypercent of faculty time at the College and the other fifty percent at an industry nearby.Perhaps the legal and organizational

Subsequently,case studies have been integrated into courses at the University of Alabama at Birmingham(UAB) and Cleveland State University (CSU). Some of the ways to use case studies and a suggested format were reviewed in Delatteand Rens11. These include: • Introductions to topics – use the case to illustrate why a particular failure mode isimportant. Often the importance of a particular mode of failure only became widely known aftera failure – examples include the wind-induced oscillations of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge andthe failure of Air Force warehouses in the mid-1950’s that pointed out the need for

hascontributed to a high degree of willingness of staff to take the time out of their busyschedules and help students.In almost all 10 years, at some time the course instructors and faculty advisors have hadto walk a fine line in project management issues, choosing between three basic options: 1. Let students work out the issues with possible detrimental effects to course or deliverables 2. Provide limited executive decisions to positively affect the outcome(s) 3. Weigh in heavily and interrupt the interactions that might (or might not) work themselves out in a timely manner by the studentsSuch decisions are difficult at times, and Option 3 will typically result in meetingdeadlines but with a less valuable student learning process

overall human capital strategy. The remainderof the paper will focus on the STEP Program itself.A consequence of the end to the cold war was that the Department of Defense (DoD) found itselfwith an excess amount of infrastructure that was no longer required. The excess infrastructureincluded personnel no longer needed to support our post cold war efforts. This lead to congressauthorizing a number of Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) rounds to be conducted into themid-1990’s that were intended to right size DoD both in physical plant infrastructure as well asin personnel resources. BRAC rounds were conducted every odd numbered year culminating inthe last, and most extensive, round occurring in 1995. This periodic BRAC process did reducethe size

isthe seminal work of the 1950’s educational committee chaired by Benjamin Bloom. Thecommittee established a set of taxonomies in three domains of learning: cognitive, affective andpsychomotor. The cognitive domain taxonomy is widely accepted in many fields and has beenidentified as, “arguably one of the most influential education monographs of the past halfcentury.”6 The taxonomies are a language that describes the progressive development of anindividual in each domain and are defined as follows7: • Cognitive: of, relating to, being, or involving conscious intellectual activity. • Affective: relating to, arising from, or influencing feelings or emotions. • Psychomotor: of or relating to motor action directly proceeding from mental

press operators tends to be severe. Press operators areamong the most likely workers to suffer an amputation injury.Third, the requirements to safely guard and operate a mechanical power press are thoroughlydocumented. An entire section of the OSHA code (29CFR1910.217) is specifically devoted torequirements of safeguarding mechanical power presses. Mechanical press safety is alsoaddressed explicitly in ANSI B11.1. In the mid-1990’s the identification of presses as a serioussafety risk, particularly for amputations, led to the initiation of a focused OSHA emphasisprogram on press safety entitled, “CPL 2-1.24, National Emphasis Program on MechanicalPower Presses, 29CFR1910.217.”To provide better insight into the problem of press injuries
