A framework forconducting an undergraduate „Technology Project Management‟ course is presented thatincludes delivery approaches to students from both online (Distance Education) class offeringsand on-campus (Face-to-face) class offerings. Stand-alone, asynchronous, or synchronouslearning modalities are incorporated into the framework.To evaluate the framework, a composite evaluation of survey, responses, and assessmentsanalysis are examined.

Computing: The Capabilities and Risks1 AbstractWithin the computer science arena, cloud computing has become a major topic of interest.Major computing corporations tout the advantages of such systems, including high reliability,scalability, remote availability, and other advantages. Major industries employ these types ofsystems in their daily business.In the academic arena, cloud computing usage, aside from basic e-mail and web hosting, hasbeen slower to develop. Some universities have outsourced email management and other limitedadministrative services. Outside of this area, the usage of cloud computing has generally beenlimited to individual faculty members using remote services. However, with the rapid escalationin cloud computing service

, American Society for Engineering Education5. ConclusionUndergraduate studies in Biomedical Engineering have been offered by the Faculty of Electronicsand Information Technology to relatively small groups of students. In the 90s the number ofstudents getting the diploma in this area of concentration varied between 12 and 33 per year withthe average number 24 students per year. During the last three years this number stabilized on thelevel of 24-26 person per year. However, a growing interest is expected, following the recentspectacular developments in biological and biomedical sciences.6. References[1] R. Z. Morawski, A. Krasniewski, J.

educators. Industry seeks graduates with up-to-date technical knowledge. Thehalf-life of an engineer's technical skills - how long it takes for half of everything anengineer knows about the field to become obsolete - is becoming strikingly short. Thepace of technological change has also imposed new challenges on faculty developmentand technical currency programs. Faculty professional development activities andtechnical currency play an important role in promoting student learning and success.Especially for non-research (purely teaching) institutions that offer technology drivenprograms, one of the most important factors determining student success is the technicalcurrency of faculty members.

While it is clearly important that they be developingtheir research program (submitting grant proposals, advising students, writing papers on theirsuccessful research) and it is also necessary that they develop a solid teaching portfolio, howmuch time should be devoted to service? And for that spent time, what types of service activitiesare likely to be the most beneficial? The purpose of this paper is to provide guidance to newengineering faculty on these questions from the

focus on the responses of engineering faculty.FFF Faculty SurveyWhen researching the literature on how to encourage under represented PhD students to selectacademic careers, there is little available. There was information on why go to graduate schooland how to mentor under represented graduate students. So, the decision was made to develop afaculty survey that would gather current information on how under represented engineeringfaculty were mentored to academic positions and how they mentor their current students toacademic positions. The responses provide a small collection of faculty experiences about whatwas important in their career choice. It also provides insight into how these faculty, who areunder represented themselves, encourage
