with creativity and its role in engineering education in more general terms.Considering this body of work, three areas of pressing need emerge. First, as one of these papersspecifically points out, there is a lack of research and resources on incorporating creativity innon-design engineering courses and those not focused on entrepreneurship.6 Second, many ofthese papers note an emphasis on group activities and a large fraction report difficultiesassociated with this. Since engineers often do not have the luxury of choosing those with whomthey must work, a pedagogical model for enhancing group creativity would thus be useful.Finally, in general, there remains a gap between generic puzzles and games, which may beappealing to engineering students

developed by students in their juniordesign course.ElectronicsRequired Courses: PH112, PH113, ECE 203, ECE 204, PH316, PH317, PH405, EP406, EP407We expect any EP student graduating from RHIT to possess a solid background in electronics.Their training in the subject begins in our introductory Physics courses (PH112 & PH113) wherethey are first exposed to concepts in electricity and magnetism such as electric fields andpotentials, electric current and resistance, DC circuits, capacitance, sources of magnetic fields,Faraday's law and inductance. This basic skill set is further developed in their sophomore yearwhen the students take ECE203 and ECE204, two 10-week courses focusing on topics in DC andAC circuits. These classes further develop the

five year SCUengineering programs and suggest ways to support future growth and improve the quality ofexisting programs with proven adaptive mesh network architecture. Analogous to a wirelessmesh network, a communication topology is implemented between universities (each like a meshnode) that can relay data across the network with a clearly defined protocol (standardization andarticulation agreements).Existing SCU programs and in particular Liberal Arts Colleges and Universities (LACU)Engineering Physics Programs have many advantages over large engineering schools. However,they may be weaker in the number of class offerings, available ABET BS majors, departmentdistinctive capacities, low upper class enrollments, facilities and equipment, and
