StructureSyllabi from 27 Industrial Engineering programs (and 1 Engineering Management program)were examined to determine the design and structure of their capstone courses. Information thatwas readily available for each program included course design (type of projects), credit hours persemester, number of semesters, grading structure, whether work was conducted as teams, and ifother disciplines were included in the course. Characteristics common across all programs arethe use of teams and the use of an A-F grading scale (with the exception of one university).The majority of the capstone course projects were strictly sponsored by industry as seen inFigure 1. Two of the universities (7%) utilized an independent project design where studentseither chose

It is preferred that the leadershipdevelopment be an accommodative platform for other purposes such as program assessment andassessment of student learning outcomes.2According to Malzahn, Whitman and Toro-Ramos3 a lack of effective leadership exists acrossindustry, government and academe. This lack is attributed to confusion as to what/who is aleader and how leadership is related to management. Dixon4 points out that leadership is aprocess that relates leader, follower and purpose. The role of followers in the process ofleadership is often neglected, adding to the confusion. Malzahn, et. al.3, also suggest thatleadership development within engineering programs may

Unfortunately, acomprehensive study of engineering management programs across the US, conducted by Gandhiand Pinto [7], revealed that less than 1/3 of all programs offered risk management courses. Toaddress this gap in current educational curriculum, the authors discuss existing approaches toinclude systemic risk management material in engineering management programs.Systemic risk and its importance to engineering managers According to Kaufman and Scott [8], systemic risk is thought of as a risk that originatesfrom multiple sources, affects multiple agents and propagates quickly among individual parts orcomponents of the

agree with the centrality of the PEOs in program design, but state: Despite this crucial role, very little attention has been paid to Criterion 2 in the engineering literature. For example, in the ASEE Conference Proceedings from 1998- 2000, only four papers addressed Criterion 2 in any detail, and in each of those the treatment was a brief part of a consideration of all EC2000 criteria, inadequate to provide meaningful guidance to programs trying to manage Criterion 2. In contrast, 52 articles dealt with some aspect of Criterion 3 (Outcomes a-k).The authors describe “a two-part procedure for operationally defining Criterion 2, a procedurewe have developed and used as a guide for diverse engineering

The core systemsengineering classes may not require the mathematical rigor expected in some of the otherengineering disciplines. At the undergraduate level, students cannot often appreciate the value ofsystems engineering. One downside of this is the fact that it may make the systems classes lessattractive to undergraduate students. This gives the instructors a great reason to apply some ofthe active learning techniques. In this paper, the author investigates some of the techniques andmethodologies used in other engineering and especially non-engineering disciplines
