system development cycle, from inceptionthrough specification, design and development, validation and evolution.The education challenge is not trivial. Engineers of cyber-physical systems require systemsengineering skills that extend across a very broad range of technologies. Our objective with theSystems Engineering of Cyber-Physical Systems program we have developed is to build a seriesof courses that can satisfy these needs, in effect integrating the skills of hardware, software andsystems engineering, for all of these are required to various degrees by everyone on the CPSteam. This same approach may be applicable to all of systems engineering, and this can serve asan exemplar as we update our core SE curriculum.2 educational gaps to be

The International Council of SystemsEngineering (INCOSE) is ABET’s major partner in this undertaking. Universities do nottypically seek ABET accreditation for their

Additionally, keythemes identified in our review of the literature on women in engineering focused on (1)historical male-domination of the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM)fields, (2) the need for intervention programs for women and minorities to keep their interest inSTEM fields and (3) the need for educational system changes to include both curriculum andfaculty role-models and influence. In this paper we show how it appears that the trends inengineering education are in line with and supportive of the themes underlying the types ofchanges needed to draw more women into engineering.Background and MethodsThis

importance of CAE in engineering education is well established andmany engineering programs now include some type of formal education utilizing solid modellingsoftware packages1,2,3. Many studies have shown that the use of CAE software enhances thelearning of students at all levels from first year4,5,6 to fourth year7,8. The CAD/CAE softwarepackages themselves tend to be broad based, offer extensive tools for the experiencedpractitioner and hence they may not be intuitive to the novice user.CAE is not a trivial domain. It is easy to generate results that are incorrect and dangerous9.Therefore, it is essential to know what is going on within a software program and recognize thesoftware’s limitations10.
