, is playing a more important role within engineering curriculums. Inthe electronic and computer engineering technology program at UD, a major emphasis has beenplaced upon embedded system design, including the use of SoC development within multiplecourses. In the Microprocessors I course, SoC development has been used to provide studentsexposure to the hardware/software co-design process. Using a cumulative design project relatedto audio has provided relevance to the course material and a challenging real-world designplatform. The example overview of a student design project provided a glimpse into some of thedesign issues that the students face during this capstone project and how they overcome them.Bibliography1.

ABET introduced the revised outcomes for EngineeringCriteria 20001 to drive changes in engineering education practice—such as promoting more sub-stantial education in communication and ethics—but many programs’ and institutions’ ap-proaches to the ABET requirements have now become codified, and administrators now exam-ine proposed changes to curriculum or pedagogy, asking whether they pose any risk to continu-ing accreditation.

Technology should be used toanswer such questions in higher education because technology would be used to answer suchquestions in real life!It is important to pause here in order to link this retirement planning example directly to ourunderlying notion of coupling industry-centered analysis and engineering design in EE. The realconcepts at work in the retirement situation are identifying a problem (saving for retirement) andthe variables generally within my control (how much I save, the career I choose), understandingthe unknowns and uncertainties of the problem (salary growth, inflation, future needs, how long Iintend to work), creating boundaries for a problem (i.e., bounds on the unknowns), and thengenerating

For example, by the year 2000, 85 percent of those entering the labor force for the first time areexpected to be women, minorities, immigrants, and disabled individuals. Furthermore, in 1990, 23 of the largest25 school districts in the United States were dominated by “minorities.” Accordingly, the need to diversify thepipeline of engineering students arises not only from a desire to provide equal opportunity to all, but from a verypractical concern of a serious shortfall of scientists and engineers in the very near future.1 Many reasons have been cited for the low enrollments and poor retention of women and
