To be successful as a distinct technology, it will have to rise farbeyond the level of individual enthusiasms.Background methodologyNew technologies (of any kind) face three major hurdles before they can be considered asuccess in the business world. 1. If they offer a radically new application or market opportunity, there are too few customers to provide the revenue needed to support mature development. We may now feel smug when we read Ken Olsen’s 1977 statement that, “there is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home” 2. However, in the context in which it was offered, he made a valid claim and the 30 years it took to move from lab

This says nothing regarding the advance in technology in the machines and peripherals.Since then, drastic advancements in End-of-Arm-Tooling (EOAT), vision systems, robotprogramming, and overall capability have been made. Other items such as networkcommunications and interface with other devices have since come into view and are not includedin this latest text.

. The Department of Electrical, Computer and EnergyEngineering was recently renamed at the University of Colorado at Boulder, primarily to attractmore students to their major. Both electrical and material engineers are working to improve theefficiency of solar panels. Chemical engineers design systems to refine oil and are movingstrongly into the area of biofuels development.Environmental engineers also have an important role to play in addressing energy-relatedchallenges. Traditional energy sources such as fossil fuel combustion have large effects on theenvironment via carbon dioxide emissions and potential water and soil pollution. Many of thealternative energy sources being considered have large water demands or impacts. This so-called“water

After one and a half years, the students chose one of five engineering profiles;computer engineering, bio-technology, mechanical engineering, electrical and systemsengineering and finally the new profile in energy engineering. The engineering profile is to someextent a curriculum of its own, and must contain at least 70 credits (one full study year equals 60credits), thus making up about a quarter of the program. Of the 70 credits, 15 are dedicated to abachelor thesis. The students also chose one industrial engineering profile, for examplemarketing, financing
