prefer that their graduate students contribute to their researchprograms on campus, funding for those programs is sometimes limited. Internships withindustry, government agencies, or national laboratories can provide a student with an opportunityto conduct a research project. In many cases, the faculty advisor can have some involvement inthe research, and the “shared” graduate student can be a catalyst for collaboration between theuniversity and the organization funding the intern’s position.Most large companies related to the nuclear industry have some intern positions available. Theylike to keep a constant stream of interns in their laboratories and typically prefer to hire graduateswho have experience with the company as an intern. The

The model for such partnerships
architectural and physical gapsin SoC design. There is a strong consensus from industry and academic institutions on theimportance and urgency of reflecting the impact of the SoC paradigm shift in engineeringeducation, as traditional programs, especially at the undergraduate level, have not keptpace with this evolution. This paper presents progress using SoC as a theme to achieve aseamless transition from a two-year community college (Camden County College) to thejunior level of a four-year Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) program at RowanUniversity. The crux of achieving this seamless transition lies in reconfiguring anddeveloping new courses at Camden County College that not only introduce key conceptstaught in the first two years at Rowan

Most of those scholars held appointments inEngineering and Applied Science, Arts and Sciences, or Architecture. Some of those facultymembers had collaborated with colleagues in other departments, e.g. by teaching courses andadvising students. But, in an era of tight resources, there was no room to lessen departmentalresponsibilities in exchange for work done for other departments.

Page 26.1091.3The Role of Building RelationshipsIn order to undertake challenging design and build projects with industry sponsors, a substantiallevel of trust must be established between the university and the sponsors. Such projects requirean understanding of the capabilities of the student teams on the part of the corporate sponsors, aswell as an understanding of the culture and expectations of their corporate partners by thestudents and faculty. This level of trust requires long term planning, development, and nurturing.The engineering programs as Grand Valley State University were launched at the request of localindustry in the 1980’s. The programs were designed by a team of faculty in collaboration withpracticing engineers from industry

This paper will (1) define automatedsystem integration; (2) survey current status of engineering education in this area; (3) presentresults from field interviews with industry practitioners; (4) identify gaps between industry needsand education curricula; and (5) propose an agenda for industry collaboration and curriculumdevelopment to remedy these issues.An automated manufacturing system generally consists of processing equipment, materialhandling devices, and material transfer equipment. The processing equipment can be a computernumerical control (CNC) milling, lathe, turning machine or any other type of equipment thatchanges or

undergraduate BME curriculum Page 12.1584.2IntroductionA primary area of research for the VaNTH Engineering Research Center for BioengineeringEducational Technologies1 has been to identify the concepts that should comprise a coreundergraduate biomedical engineering curriculum. The motivation for this project has beendescribed elsewhere2-6 but, briefly, VaNTH domain experts believe that determining a core set ofconcepts will clarify for industry the capabilities of undergraduate biomedical engineers. Inaddition, these concepts should guide the development of new undergraduate programs inbiomedical engineering and assist established programs in reworking their respective curricula.The principal
submitting to an LMS, students can "check-in" their files to begin the grading workflow, and experience the same process as industry. • Internet-enabled access- collaborative projects will allow students to share and retrieve each other's files without the potential of corrupting the file references or the limitations of physically being in the same location. • Classification- student work can be classified as "needs- graded" or "modifications required." The files can also have meta-data associated with them to allow the tracking of a student's performance and later be used for educational research to observe the impact of different pedagogy and treatments on a student's work.2 Comparison of selected "PDM

However, neithersystematic courses nor degree programs have been developed to train automotive technicians inthe emerging technology of HEV. To date, no automotive technician program in HEV has beendeveloped for the community

The study showed the different experiences of eachmethod and contrasted the efficiency of both 2D and BIM.4 Barnes and Castro proposed a BIM-enabled integrated optimization tool for LEED decisions.2 The construction educator shouldencourage construction engineering management students to acquire the skills and knowledge ofthe BIM technology as more AEC companies integrate BIM into their fields and require the newlabor force to be able to collaborate and communicate with 3D/4D/5D BIM technologies.Research Project ObjectivesThis paper aims to develop a unique

In the consultation with the team after the withdrawal, theinstructors drew parallels to professional scenarios where team members leave, retire, get movedto a different project, or team membership is adjusted midstream on a project for any number ofother circumstances. The team was informed there would be no adjustments to expectations ondeliverables, and that the team was still responsible for developing their prototype.Second, collaboration would be an essential component of the course – for performance, as wellas learning.
