Thepressure on control as a class increases with the advent of a strong push to reduce curriculumsfrom 130+ credits to 120 credits to increase enrollment into engineering and make in theoryretention of students in engineering easier. There have been papers published trying to push majorchanges in control education methodologies many limiting or removing Laplace Domain usageand increasing use of nonlinear simulations, and yet not happened to large extent [2],[3],[4],[5],[6].Perhaps best summarized as follows: “Process control is a core course in the chemical engineeringundergraduate curriculum, yet it sometimes suffers from an over-emphasis on

To achieve results useful for industry, the university must be actively engaged in educat-ing the sponsors as to the nature and capabilities of the solution (including state-of-the-arttechniques, relevant literature such as patents, necessary computer and hardware resources, futurepotential ideas culled from the research literature, etc.). Quite often the term “technology trans-fer” is used to describe this objective. To assure success in a project, the company must be ableto understand, implement, and support the solution.
