The driving factor has been the introduction of aset of strong international teleconferencing standards that have had the byproduct of dramaticallyreduced prices, enhanced interoperability, and the addition of LAN-based solutions.

topics.2 Thus graduate students need to practice the following: oral and written communication, being a member of a technical team, design and open ended-problems, and learning how-to-learn. The course content provides the needed technical breadth to the graduate education. In research: They need to become complete researchers who can study an area, define problems, write proposals, design and conduct experiments - both real and virtual - interpret results, and communicate the results. To do this they need practice and feedback (i. e., mentoring) in all these steps. Research provides the needed technical depth. In teaching: To begin a teaching career effectively, a new assistant professor

entrepreneurship,marketing, product design and development. To examine the inclusion ofentrepreneurship training in engineering education, a survey was performed at CaliforniaState University. The sample consisted of 20 respondents. They were engineeringmanagement students at the masters’ level. Through a survey questionnaire, the authorsfound that entrepreneurship training is relevant and available to undergraduate andgraduate engineering students. The entrepreneurship course was beneficial to students,particularly due to the ease of starting a business in the internet age. However, somerespondents cited the need to improve entrepreneurship training at their respectiveschools. Taking this as an initiative, the authors decided to undertake this research

Offering a dedicated courserequires a significant time commitment and must not be entered into lightly. The ability toprovide an excellent design experience to the students may be the only reward to the instructor.However, one method for an instructor to derive benefit is to only commit time and effort toprojects that will also benefit the instructor’s research or educational goals.
