It is an instructionalmethod, which uses real-world problems to facilitate students’ critical thinking and problemsolving skills while accomplishing the course objectives. Students get involved and takeresponsibility for their learning experience; and instructor becomes a resource.

Since the mid-1960’s, however, the engineering program saw an increase ofdiversification into mechanical, electrical, computer and chemical engineering. By the early1990’s, the Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering (BSIE) program, once the mainstay ofthe Engineering Department, was attracting less and less students. This trend was in line withthe termination of the GI program after World War II and the steady decline of the steel industry
