Those students who had only 3 or 4 credits inchemistry clearly had more difficulty learning this material.This finding is based on the small student population and any further general implications wouldhave to be verified through larger studies. However, the above mentioned division was salientand it appeared worthwhile reporting this anomaly. As a result, the conclusion from this papershould be read only as a call for attention or a warning of a potential problem that there may belack of basic chemistry knowledge for electronic engineering students who obtain theirundergraduate degrees in the US.

Session 2159 Modern Engineering Laboratories That Deliver Charles Knight Mechanical Engineering University of Tennessee at ChattanoogaAbstractElectronic instrumentation and computer data acquisition has revolutionized the experimentallaboratory. Universities with limited funding face major challenges in upgrading theirlaboratories. Industry advisors tell us they expect our engineering graduates to have modernlaboratory skills. Many engineering faculty members do not possess the modern skills required todevelop and/or
disability and aging. Day 3 Technical Aspects of Disability and Aging introduces a wide range of assistive devices as well as the Participatory Action Design paradigm for designing such devices. Introduction to Research Methodology covers basic statistics and research design and process including institutional approval and ethical use of human subjects. Day 4 Technical Writing and Oral Presentations analyzes the components of a sample conference paper and provides hands-on exercises to enhance students’ skills. Ethics Forum is organized by Pitt OEL and aimed to provide an opportunity for students to Week 3 consider ethical practice in research through

Given today’s level of unemployment it may seem thatthere is a surplus of IT workers, however when we look at the long term “big picture” recentstudies indicate that there will be an overall shortage of qualified technical professionals and thatthe trends predicted are discouraging.
