Currently, allengineering technology programs at the college are under review, due to low enrollment, with theprospect of further combining of the programs being a real possibility.Initially all of the degree programs had their own respective orientation classes. These classes hadreal merit in that they were quite focused, and allowed the individual programs to provide trainingwithin these courses in subjects which the students would later need. These courses did, however,have some shortfalls in areas which today are becoming more and more important. For example, ageneral overview of the entire engineering technology area was not

Promote Multidisciplinary Skills in a Freshman Engineering ProgramIntroduction This paper addresses the lack of student interest in topics outside of their discipline; thisis even true for some students in all courses regardless of topic. However, all topics, especiallyfundamental ones are important in an engineering education because engineers are facingincreasingly complex challenges and opportunities; consequently, collaboration betweenengineers of multiple disciplines becomes very important. ABET goes as far as to list “an abilityto function on multidisciplinary teams” as a required student outcome for an undergraduateengineering program to be accredited. Engineering curriculums are somewhat designed toaddress

Curriculum. Curriculum must be developed to reflect the program philosophy and mission. Two essential ingredients are (i) a thorough process of “benchmarking” with similar programs at other institutions, and (ii) close interaction with industrial constituencies.6. Student Recruitment. The challenge of recruiting students to a program that exists only on paper requires a great deal of inventiveness, individual hard work, and help from the institution, particularly the Office of
circuitry, and excellent software development tools (Code Composer Studio) thatinclude an optimizing C compiler, debugger, assembler, and linker. This meets our criteria oflow cost, sufficient processing power, ample memory, and a versatile software developmentenvironment. Furthermore, while other companies such as Analog Devices and Motorolaalso manufacture DSP microprocessors, we have been unable over the years to elicit interestfrom any other company in the educational segment; only TI has consistently demonstratedsuch interest. See reference [19] for details on this DSK, and see reference [20] for moreinformation on TI DSP products and support in general.Unfortunately, to keep costs down, the native codec on the C6711 DSK board is the
Electricity Generation, a second semester freshmantutorial course in the Plan II honors program at the University of Texas at Austin. This coursefocuses on the impact of technological development and is one of several "substantial writingcomponent" courses in the curriculum. Students in the Plan II program are purposefully chosenfrom a wide range of degree programs in Natural Sciences, Engineering, Social Sciences, LiberalArts, Public Policy, Languages and Performance Arts. The classes are intentionally composed ofmixed majors to provide a broad perspective in the discussions. I found the style of teachingrequired a refreshing change from my usual classroom experience. The standard engineeringlecture format is, of necessity, used very sparingly
from a wide variety ofuniversities, including those without PhD programs. This was of great value for several studentmembers, including three of the authors, who were searching and found positions at these types ofinstitutions, which focus on undergraduate education. Attending presentations at conferencesgave the student members the chance to see techniques that other engineering educators aretrying. Several members have written and presented their own papers at conferences as part oftheir commitment to engineering education.Another significant benefit for the members was participation in the chapter events, such as paneldiscussions and teaching workshops. Topics for panel discussions included finding an academicjob, curriculum vitas, proposal
Carolina University requiresinterdisciplinary integration of electrical, mechanical, and systems topics. Thisintegration demands creative pedagogy to ensure coverage of necessary content withinlimited time. With a brief introduction of the features of the newly-built program, thispaper describes methodology required by the curriculum structure. It then presents anefficient method to deliver electrical engineering subjects with two examples.Preliminary results of this initial work are further discussed.MotivationBenjamin Franklin’s famous saying ─ Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.Involve me and I learn ─ suggests ways educators should deliver knowledge to theirstudents. This is particularly true for the new general engineering program
multidisciplinary nature of MET capstone projects isfurther emphasized within the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Vision 2030Phase I Report [3], which states that capstone projects should be multidisciplinary in naturewhile providing opportunities for MET students to work with students in other disciplines.The need to educate engineers capable of working on multidiscipline projects is not new. Forexample, in 1992 Tooker et al. [4] stated that engineering colleges should instill the importanceof combining disciplines, making tradeoffs, and develop a multiple discipline mentality. Theneed for combining engineering disciplines was quantified in 1994, when approximately 83% ofengineering capstone programs employed single discipline capstone
