, they do not necessarily have the time to make the high levels of coordination that many university and industry engagement initiatives require. Industry engineers also have problems with the availability of time, especially during the workday - for example, it is difficult for many to devote half a day to an activity as a workshop for trainees. Often there is no money available to develop the types of initiatives that are likely to have the greatest impact. Even when funding is available to establish a new initiative, long-term financial sustainability remains problem. This paper intends to show a program that might work as a first step for engineering schools and industries to develop relations and work together in the

The desire to fill this knowledge gap is themotivating factor of this study.Procedure As mentioned in the abstract, this study extends the Genheimer & Shehab reports bystudying programs in engineering technology. In their model, Genheimer & Shehab identifyeight objectives of an IAB. In a related study,6 Rooney and Puerzer identify eleven objectives,which overlap those of Genheimer & Shehab but have more emphasis on recruiting both studentsand new faculty and stronger emphasis on research. They make the cogent point that the role ofIABs is strictly advisory, and they have no policy-making power. They also comment that theroles of IABs change

The biggest problemwith the academic advisor is that they are most often providing advice to a large number ofstudents, not the best role for a Mentor.Within industry, Mentors are most often limited to a small number of mentees, typically no morethan three. In the Mentor role, the industry engineer may help both interns and active students,providing advice on classes to be completed, current problems, or work related items. TheMentor is typically an experienced individual that has been there and done that. The Mentorseldom tells the mentee how and what, but more frequently provides hints

Internships benefit all of the stakeholders: the student gains valuable, marketableskills that give them a head start to a career; the employer has the opportunity to screen potentialfuture employees; the engineering technology programs’ recruitment and retention rates increase.Teaching in an engineering technology 2+2 program has given me experience with students of abroad age range.

The first of these is to provide stand-alone, non-credit workshops to train and certify students from other colleges and universities, industryrepresentatives, and displaced workers. Workshops have also been created to train educators atboth the K-12 and postsecondary levels on the use of robotic arms and the role the field ofrobotics plays in science, technology, engineering, and math education.
