, design criteria were established. Initially, severalmajor criteria that appear commonly in the literature were listed and given to a sample audience(from UNC Charlotte MS in Engineering Management program) for feedback. The participantswere also asked to add to the list any criteria that they believed to be important. A total of 11participants provided inputs. This set of criteria included substantive learning, complexity,duration, customizability, timing flexibility, fun, learning objectives, discussions, engagementlevel, interaction, cost, pre-requisite knowledge, key topics covered, configurability, industrysettings, real-world connection, graphics, interesting topic, intuitive game play, “non-boring”duration, and different player modes.Based

Areview of nationally ranked University web pages show that typical career paths for ISEgraduates included careers in manufacturing to improve operations inside manufacturing plants.More recently, ISE roles have expanded outside the plant to design and improve supply chainsand transportation systems that connect manufacturing facilities.2,3The need to incorporate supply chain management (SCM) content is indirectly confirmed as theSociety of

, 2016 A Case for Incorporating Preconstruction Cost Estimating in Construction Engineering and Management ProgramsThe need to effectively manage costs during the construction phase of a project to meet budgetconstraints is widely understood by both practitioners and academics. Most, if not all,Construction Engineering and Management undergraduate and graduate programs require thatstudents complete construction cost estimating courses as part of their core curriculum.However, the value of estimating the owner’s planning, design, and procurement costs during thepreconstruction period is not typically included in the Construction Engineering andManagement curriculum. Preconstruction costs are usually defined as all work required

An organization can be considered a complex socio-technical system, consisting of a technicaland a social subsystem. Organizations are defined as a social unit of people that are structured andmanaged to meet a need or to pursue collective goals. All organizations have a management structure thatdetermines relationships between the different activities and the members, and subdivides and assignsroles, responsibilities, and authority to carry out different tasks.

The study also examined the factors of support within the institution, withan emphasis on understanding the effectiveness of various programs and policies (i.e. family-friendly policies, mentoring programs, faculty diversity initiatives) designed to support womenfaculty in engineering.Background on the Problem Compared to their male peers in academic engineering programs, the female faculty isless likely to reach full professorships (Easterly and Ricard, 2011; Touchton, 2008). Rather,women are concentrated at the lower ranks of academia as assistant professors, lecturers andadjunct faculty (Fox, 2010). In 2006, women accounted for 30.5% of non-tenure track instructors, but only 11.9% of associate professors and 3.8% of full

As a result, BIM education in CMprograms has been given more emphases, and a number of CM programs in the U.S. haveincorporated BIM contents in their curriculum through various strategies.

as well as a theoretical analysis of theproblem of what first-year engineering students should know about the field ofengineering. The one common denominator for first-year engineering courses is that theyare all different. They range from a single class taught by a single professor in anengineering department to 2000 to 3000 students from an engineering college broken intoa number of very large sections each year. The emphasis of these classes ranges fromteaching a programming language to teaching design using a team environment toengineering analysis. Many times programming languages are a primary emphasis ofthese courses with a single platform or a combination of platforms being taught,including MATLAB, C, C++, Fortran, Excel, visual
