associated with product and service design,manufacturing, and support, engineers are being called upon to a much greater extent to performthe what-to-do functions that drive technology innovation and fill the front-end of the design-product-service pipeline.” 1Development of the new industrial and entrepreneurial engineering programIn 2006, the faculty initiated a complete review of the IE program. It was decided that no courseor topic was off limits. The objective was to completely revise the IE program and put in place acurriculum that would meet the needs of future graduates. After several meetings and retreats, thefaculty agreed that the new IE curriculum should have the following features: 1. Change the name of the program to reflect the

accomplish this goal, PLTW, which is not-for-profit corporation, has created a series of five yearlong high school courses. These coursesintroduce students to engineering as a career and provide them with the critical thinking andanalytical skills they will need to succeed as engineers. These courses also bring into them thenecessary math, science, and language arts skills and teach these skills in the context of the pre-engineering classes. Thus, students can see the application of these subjects, many of which arenot normally taught in context, such that they can understand their value and use.These five courses are Introduction to Engineering Design (IED), Digital Electronics (DE),Principles of Engineering (POE), Computer Integrated Manufacturing

Traditionally, the curriculum primarily consists of lecture-based courses,with some hands-on work, mostly through demonstration. In recent years, the curriculum hasstarted using more project-based courses. In these updated courses, the theory covered via lectureis merged with hands-on project work. This integrated approach is designed to not only give thestudents a foundation of the course theory, but to expand on that and give them practical

Later on in this class, [the guest speaker] came and talked about the need for alternative energy resources, and the types of research going on here at CU in that particular field.

When asked how club participation changed their engagement inclasses, some students reported being less engaged. Interest level could be a factor that drawsstudents away from classes and toward clubs.
