Union Collegedeveloped what it called “Converging Technologies” (CT) as a framework to a new vision inengineering education. It is a vision that “will bring biology, chemistry, physics, and ethicstogether with computer science, electrical engineering, and mechanical engineering.” The fourmajor areas where the Engineering Division at Union College is focusing its efforts areBioengieering, Nantotechnology, Mechatronics, and Pervasive Computing.

Consider your own schedule as youare setting up the semester calendar. For example, you might want to schedule exams for each ofyour classes in different weeks, so that the grading task will be spread out. Also, you might wantto assign shorter homework sets with greater frequency to allow your preparation and gradingtime to be more evenly distributed throughout the semester. In addition to establishing thetimeline, determine what types of assignments will provide the best aids to learning. Werecommend including a writing/presentation component to every course
