We briefly introduce adensity matrix formalism as it is essential to quantum information and quantum computation.Besides our existing lab experiments on thin-film growing, STM analysis, NMR analysis, etc.,we have added three experiments from our new QIL: (1) Quantum random number generator, (2)Coincidence measurements of entangled photons, and (3) Quantum eraser using entangledphotons. Students usually find the entanglement–based quantum eraser to be the most striking.Advanced Quantum MechanicsAdvanced Quantum Mechanics is required for physics and engineering physics students but isnot required for general engineering students. However, we strongly recommend it to studentswho plan to work in the fields of materials

total of 15 weeks in the Simulation-Based Design course wasdevoted to teaching fundamental concepts of the FEM. The purpose of this was to help studentsgain a basic understanding of FEM theory and allow students to have a better understanding ofthe various settings in the FEA software.The basic concepts or a general procedure for FEM theory [18] can be summarized as followings:(1) The FEM is a numerical approximation technique for solving deformation of an object. In this technique, after the x, y and z components of the deformation: 𝑢𝑢(𝑥𝑥, 𝑦𝑦, 𝑧𝑧), 𝑣𝑣(𝑥𝑥, 𝑦𝑦, 𝑧𝑧) and w(𝑥𝑥, 𝑦𝑦, 𝑧𝑧) of an object are determined, stress/strain of the object can be calculated through applicationthe of Hooke’s law.(2) The object is

A good invention process considers the end users, the market, and the stakeholders; thisentrepreneurial thinking enables students to identify opportunities for innovation. Specifically,invention includes the act of problem finding. While most engineering programming asksstudents to define a problem, some version of a problem is generally given. Finding the rightproblem to tackle is an entrepreneurial endeavor that students do not often experience [5].Teaching problem finding has two major advantages: 1

The authors suggested that SPARK if integrated into a learning environment, couldimprove students’ learning of teamwork skills and reduce team problems [35]. Besides itsgeneral benefits of being able to rate the students’ contribution, SPARK relied on only threedirect aspects of teamwork 1) quality of work, 2) quantity of posting, and 3) effectiveness as ateam member on a scale of three where 1 showed no contribution and 2 showed above

Borrego summarizes her findings in her 2006 manuscript: The results suggest that engineering education program graduates will be competitive for a variety of staff and faculty positions in colleges and schools of engineering. However, availability of tenure track positions will be limited, as a Ph.D. in the discipline is generally required and very few Engineering Education departments currently exist.(4, p. 1)Borrego’s results can be considered a prediction of the today’s engineering education job market:jobs will be available, but tenure track positions will be

This prevalencecan be attributed to two factors. Firstly, the program is administered by the AerospaceEngineering Department. Secondly, Aerospace Engineering students can allocate up to six creditstowards their technical elective, while other departments may not accept as many or any atall.The rest of the student makeup comprises Electrical, Computer, and Mechanical engineeringstudents.
