“machines” generally to describe all of the things that engineers build, including infrastructural,informational, molecular, mechanical and biological constructs. What are the new machines?Simply put, these are the things that we must prepare our graduating students to build in themiddle of their careers, 20 to 30 years from now, to address societal needs. Here is an example ofwhat we have termed as “old machine” and “new machine”.The airplane on the left is a 1950’s era Boeing 707; it is designed based on aerodynamics. Theflying machine on the right is NASA’s X-57 Maxwell, an aircraft that looks like the one on theleft but is being developed based on electric propulsion using lithium-ion batteries; they estimatethat it will reduce fuel use by a

how best the curriculum might be changed, tobetter meet this goal. Given Mina’s criticism of engineering students that they are nottechnologically literate, higher education might begin with a general programme of liberaleducation as suggested by Heywood. That model through problem based/project learningprovides a range of contexts that, should in principle, deal with the problem of control indifferent contexts. But, as Cheville recognises this is becoming increasingly difficult becauseof the tension between the increasing gap between technological and educational capability.He suggests that we should all master some (rather than many) aspect(s) of episteme andtechne, and we should learn to teach that aspect within “communities in which

PD (professional development) experience took place in December. I created a unit to team teach with our 8th grade science teacher, Holly. She was very excited about the experience. I shared the lesson plans with her and secured all necessary materials for the unit. I taught the first class and then we team taught the next 2 classes and then she taught the last class on her own. She felt confident by the 4th class. My second PD experience took place in May. I shared BD (another rural teacher in program)’s MagLev unit with Holly… I told her I would help her in anyway except I could not be there to teach the unit… We are planning on meeting this summer to plan a life science unit and maybe more

feasibility of distributing large softwareengineering projects across the academic curriculum, Tvedt et al. [12] propose that students fromdifferent courses collaborate by taking different roles in a simulated software factory, and Walkerand Slotterbeck [13] explore the teaching of large scale teamwork in a small college environmentby using multi-semester, multi-course projects that require students to work together in teams.The objectives of Fenwick et al.’s, Tvedt et al.’s, and Walker and Slotterbeck’s work are broad andrelated to bringing an entire curriculum closer to real-world software engineering practiceswhereas the objectives of the work reported in this paper are focused on knowledge and skillsparticular to software project management.3

lead women to think that they are not a fit forcareers in engineering. The authors describe several ways in which women have differentexperiences from men, particularly in confronting sexist environments or supervisors. Inaddition, particularly for women, the authors write, a boring or mundane internship can leadstudents to question whether they belong in engineering at all.The accounts presented in this paper add to this story by highlighting the experiences of studentsat and after graduation. One caveat, however—our sample is somewhat different from Seron etal.’s in that they followed engineers through their undergraduate experience whereas we selectedengineers at career launch (the end of or shortly after their undergraduate experience).

increase their commitment to teaching may help, but continuing tohire new faculty whose primary emphasis and interests is in research, inevitably doesreinforce existing cultural norms that favor research over teaching.Facilitate and Support Faculty in Acquiring Relevant Practical Experience:Encourage faculty members, particularly the young, to get involved with the practicein their locale, and 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

) program, mini-FEA, developed byProfessor Paul S. Steif at Carnegie Mellon University about fifteen years ago, is used to illustratethe concepts and quickly show how it works. For complex geometry, ANSYS Mechanical APDLprograms were created by the instructor so that the requirements of student interaction with theprogram are minimal, and to keep their focus on deformation concepts. The mini-FEA allows theinstructor to provide a quick illustration of deformation concepts as well as the basic steps inimplementing FEM. The concepts of deformation mechanics are then demonstrated by graphicalillustrations from both FEM and the traditional photoelasticity method. The purpose of this paperis to study the effectiveness of integrating FEM and discover how

through a “quality assurance” regime. To provide a flavor of thecurrent approach, faculty are required to specify the number of hours students need to spend tolearn specific content; academic credit as well as faculty course loads are then assigned usingthis measure, even as the specified learning outcomes provides the basis for determining whatdegree programs students are qualified to enter at the start of the second cycle. This means thatEurope has embraced a learning outcomes regime far more extensive than anything required byABET EC 2000’s accreditation protocols.6As an institutional historian and an ethnographer of educational institutions, we have reason tobelieve that the changes brought about by the Bologna Process will not occur all
