to boilers’ efficiencies. For this purpose, the objective of this capstoneproject was to investigate improvement in heating performance for copper pipes when usinginternal, straight, longitudinal fins. This will give an indication whether internally finned pipescould increase the heat transfer in boilers.Research Questions and MethodologyThe project problem was basically divided into two parts: (a) unfinned pipe and (b) finned pipe.The project objective was to investigate whether finned pipes can enhance the heat transfermechanism to the water flowing inside the pipe. This enhancement would be based on anincrease in water temperature differences between the pipe outlet and inlet locations. Anotherimportant factor that associates with the

the past four years, the faculty member has made efforts tobring practical, industry driven, experiential opportunities into the classroom. Throughpartnering with various manufacturing companies, students are now able to gain real worldexperiences, using mechanical drawings and parts straight from the manufacturers to complete aseries of quality control measures and report back the company management team about theirprocedures. This includes conducting a gage Repeatability and Reproducibility study, designingand fabricating all necessary jigs and fixtures for holding/mounting the parts, and developingsample Production Part Approval Process Plans.As this project has grown in popularity, so has the desire to introduce other technologies
– morals and ethics.They are often used as being interchangeable but are not necessarily the same. This paper willreview the differences in morals and ethics, and then address the original question and the ethicalimplications it poses. The paper will also look at some of the ethics and standards of conduct inpractice today by some professional organizations such as the IEEE, ASME, ASEE, SME, SPE,and other forms that may represent doctors and lawyers view of ethics.IntroductionIn the use of the words morals or ethics, there is considerable contention – some will say they arethe same in terms of one being right or wrong, others will say that one has a personal meaning(morals), while the second has a societal meaning (ethics). Most will agree that

tobe difficult; small-to-midsize institutions may not have the funding available to outfit alaboratory with robotics systems that cost $20k or more per station. Following feedback fromour industry advisory board (IAB) members, as well as industry partners, a need was determinedto find a way to incorporate these topics into the curriculum with our already limited resources.Faculty members presented a solution by retrofitting several outdated robots, currently in ourpossession, with newer technologies. These 30+ year-old robots had been slated for disposal dueto age, but after some exploration, it was determined that they could be salvaged and updated.The project entailed reverse engineering motor driver circuits, developing new hardware

Session ETD 355 Engineer or Technologist? Which Fits Best? Raymond Floyd IEEE Life Senior MemberAbstractThere is an ongoing discussion of the benefits of an Engineering degree versus an EngineeringTechnology degree. Perhaps the first question that the student must answer is what are theirexpectations and desires for a career as an engineer? If their interests lean toward mathematicsand research, then the path could lead to a career as an engineer. If their interests lead towardhands-on and product development, then the path could lead to a technologist. Some

Students in this program learn business andengineering skills in the classroom, then apply them in the field through class projects and acomplex capstone internship, which takes the place of a traditional thesis. Thus, the EngineeringManagement program requires strong industry partnerships for the education and graduation ofits students.The MSPS Advisory Board, which consists of local industry leaders and program alumni, acts togrow and maintain these critical industry partnerships. The Advisory Board’s role is 1) toprovide the class-projects and internships required for the students’ successful careers and 2) toensure that the curricula stays leading-edge and covers the needs of regional employers.
