12vision provides valuable instrumentation and background experience for engineering designprojects. The lab facility is also available to engineering design students. In addition, the College of Engineering offers Fundamentals of Engineering to universitystudents in their first two years of college education [9]. One of the primary objectives of thiscourse approach is to recruit and retain engineering students. A good vehicle to attract lowerdivision engineering students is robotics and computer vision, because of their visual appeal.Students can learn engineering principles using the facility provided by the proposed lab. Thus,the lab is made available to the students from Fundamentals of Engineering, such thatspecifically designed

Finally, we will provide adviceto those who might be considering starting professorial exchange programs of their own.Background of Incoming Students at HSKAStudents at Cal Poly are typical of many US institutions – most come directly out of high schooland are around 18 years of age. Qualifications are quite high, with average incoming SAT scoresabove 1450 for Mechanical Engineering. During the first year, students are required to live in thedorms, and many continue to do so during their second year.In Germany this is quite different since there are

Using off-the-shelf amateur radio equipment, the entire project can be implemented forless than $4000. The project requires participating students to develop sub-skills and acquiresoftware and hardware needed for satellite tracking and for amateur radio.

This course is ideal for establishing entrepreneurially minded learning(EML) as a systematic approach is required for managing the chain of supply, especially sincethe impacts of the decisions are not isolated and will be spread out through the entire chain. Inaddition, creative multidisciplinary knowledge is required to address most of
