. Profession Awakens to the NeedContinuing Professional Education is especially critical in the engineering profession, whereknowledge has a generally accepted five-year half-life. That is, half of what a new graduate haslearned is obsolete within five years. Engineers become obsolete, how do we get that overcome? The need for career-long continuing engineering education was formally recognized byindividual engineers, industry experts, academicians and professional societies when a panel ofthe National Research Council recommended that the National Science Foundation (NSF)establish learning objectives for career-long engineering education.In 1992,the NSF funded several engineering educational institutions to define the learningobjectives, and to test

He states that American higher education is imaginative and creative enough tosupport and reward not only those scholars uniquely gifted in research but also those whoexcel in the integration and application of knowledge, as well as those especially adept inthe scholarship of teaching. Such a mosaic of talent, if acknowledged, would bringrenewed vitality to higher learning and the nation. The scholarships of integratingknowledge and applying it, along with the scholarship of teaching, are required foruniversity engineering design programs, especially for complex systems. The GeorgiaTech graduate program in aerospace systems design, will be used to illustrate thescholarship of integrating

However, the specifications for the design needed to be specified. After discussions withother faculty in the power field it was decided the specifications for the coil gun would be asfollows: 1. A maximum of 32,000 µF of capacitance, 2. Upper limit on the capacitor voltage of 500 V, 3. Powered from a standard 120 VAC, 15 A wall outlet, 4. Maximum of two-foot barrel length, 5. 5/8-inch

The paper, also, addresses the potential difficultiesthat could arise during implementation of PBL, and argues for the need to conduct research inorder to guide the process of transition from the old to the new paradigm.IntroductionAchieving change via engineering education reform is a formidable challenge to any college ofengineering, whether in North America or anywhere else in the world.

of design teams, critiques ofdesign solutions, and pictorial concept maps. In this study, we focused on concept mapsbecause we wanted to not only assess students’ conceptions relative to experts, but also tosupport educators’ efforts in the classroom. Educational research has shown that helpingstudents become aware of and criticize their tacit frameworks or assumptions promoteslearning [18]. We capitalized on the power of concept maps as a tool for reflection byarchiving students’ representations over time, and then asking them to comment on thesimilarities and differences between their initial and final maps.In sum, we posed three questions: (1) What are key concepts in the biomedicalengineering design process? (2) Are there developmental
