The plan, which is directed at closing educational gaps withinTexas, as well as between Texas and other states, has four goals: to close the gaps in studentparticipation, student success, excellence, and research. The plan includes strategies for reachingeach of the goals and an annual performance measuring system. One outcome of this plan was ademonstrated need for engineering education and an outcome of this was the creation of the non-profit membership organization known as the Texas Engineering and Technical Consortium(TETC). The purpose of TETC is to increase the number of engineering and computer sciencegraduates from Texas

This paper discusses a four-year projectinvolving 16 students. Details are provided for year one and two. Major accomplishments foryear one included thorough research of competitor guards and rack configureations, completedesign and build of an impact tester to material handling specifications, complete benchmarktesting which included both impact and stiffness. Based on these results, prototype guards werefabricated and tested and an analytical model was created to simulate impact. Year two includedthe design and

Design course is one of the most important components of a Chemical Engineeringcurriculum because it allows the students to connect many of the concepts they have studiedduring several years, and to direct them towards the plannning of a chemical processing unit.This exercise offers inmense posibilities for the development of skills such as teamwork,communication, selfevaluation, integrative thinking, and creativity, among others. In addition,the design course provides an important opportunity for cooperation with industrial partners by Page 8.1082.1 Proceedings of the 2003 American Society for Engineering Education Annual Conference
