thing even when no one is looking, since instructors cannot completely remove everyopportunity for cheating. Students need to understand how this then translates into professionalengineering ethics. Trust must be built between students and faculty. Time is best spent byfaculty in explaining and emphasizing to students how they need to develop the necessarycapabilities, and if they cheat through school, they will not succeed on the job as thediscrepancies will eventually become apparent.References[1] B.

Curriculum Renewal MethodologyThe curriculum renewal methodology has been developed to enhance efforts by a programfaculty to analyze and understand an existing curriculum, to measure and assess input from avariety of informed sources, and to design an improved curriculum in response to the inputsreceived. Using this methodology, the new curriculum will be aligned with the strategicdirections of the academic unit which offers the program.The methodology for curriculum renewal is a five-stage process: Stage 1 - Preparation, Stage 2- Strategic Planning, Stage 3
taken.I. Background and GoalsThe control-systems laboratory at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs (UCCS) hadnot been paid much attention for years. One major deficiency was that it had not a single device tocontrol! All lab experiments were accomplished via simulation, either on a Comdyna GP-6 analogcomputer,2 or on one of the lab’s digital computers using Matlab and Simulink by MathWorks. 3Simulation using either method has limitations. The need to control real hardware, and not justsimulations, is known to all who design and build real control systems. How this applies tocontrol-systems education is emphasized in a paper by Bernstein. 4 Modeling and simulationrarely capture the complete picture—physical system identification is

in attracting young engineers – therefore our research begins it’s focus with aquestion: when does the light go on? In order to have some data from the youngest engineers weknow, we administered a survey as the first-year engineering students started classes in order tocapture their information before they developed any bias from their current experiences at theuniversity. The research and analysis revealed a distinct profile of factors that attract youngpeople to the engineering field in different stages of their development. This work will provideexamples of the survey used and the salient results. The hope is to get other educators involvedin order to exploit the students marked interest in engineering as determined by their age group –in
