Kinematics CourseAbstractThe proper application of lean management techniques to manufacturing processes typicallyresults in process improvements. Many of the principles of lean thinking can also be applied tothe educational process. This paper examines the implementation of lean management principlesin the design and delivery of a traditional lecture-based engineering course – Kinematics ofMachines.The format of a typical kinematics course relies on lectures, homework, exams, and perhaps adesign project as a means for transferring knowledge from the instructor to the students. In thispaper, lean thinking principles are applied to redesign the kinematics course format to increasethe effectiveness and efficiency of the knowledge transfer process

Whenthe institution joined the University of Texas system in 1989, its Board of Regents set a goal forUTPA to build a quality engineering program that would offer Bachelor’s degrees in Electrical,Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering. The pre-engineering program started in the fall of1989 with 72 students. By April 1992, when the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Boardgave its approval to the undergraduate programs to award degrees in those three disciplines,engineering enrollment at UTPA was

StatementSmall, private colleges have played a historic and critical role in American higher education inthe past 300-plus years. However, today the very essence of these unique institutions is beingthreatened in the changing and complex higher education landscape16. While these collegespursue their specific mission, their leadership is struggling to find new opportunities that willprovide new revenue streams without compromising their mission and to make education moreaffordable for students.One area that is lacking in many small, private colleges is a robust science, technology,engineering, and math (STEM) program. Historically, the science and math departments havebeen support programs for the general education core curriculum. While majors have

This era has left a mark on American industryin general and the engineering profession in particular that remains today. Ethicalconsiderations, although not completely disregarded, have been largely cast aside so that at anycritical juncture in decision making, the paramount question to be answered by the engineerbecomes “Is it legal?” as opposed to “Is it ethical?” This paper attempts to define a global ethicand applies it to ethical issues commonly experienced in engineering organizations.
