Although project results are generally for the sponsor, we will also pursueintellectual property opportunities for ideas that have been sponsored throughentrepreneurial and foundation funding.Lessons Learned and ConclusionsLessons learned over the past five years have opened our eyes to some of the changesneeded to better educate and prepare young engineers to enter the workforce. Thebiggest lesson is that challenging real-world design experiences help students integrateknowledge and there is a growing consensus that such experiences should be usedthroughout the engineering curriculum starting in the first year. There are twodimensions to this knowledge integration. One involves the horizontal breadth ofknowledge

First, thecategories of cost, availability, and curriculum needed streamlining for comparison purposes.Then, best practices needed to be identified, for both domestic and international programs.Common themes of coursework in the life sciences, biotechnology, and policy/ethics wereidentified.

is important to note that the profession hasgradually matured to the point where it is readily being accepted in service industriessuch as hospitals, retail stores, and banking. Today, this means that industrial engineersare one of the most versatile of the engineering professions, spanning various degrees offunctions within various types of organizations. Therefore, educational institutions thatoffer Industrial Engineering (IE) and Industrial Engineering Technology (IET)curriculum must also offer a versatile curriculum that will allow their graduates to gainexperience in various areas other than traditional manufacturing thereby allowing themgreater opportunity to enter into these non-traditional areas.This paper will focus on strategies

Club-sponsored automotivedesign and build projects are treated essentially as any other industry-sponsored project,with the twist that they are funded primarily by students who are primarily enrolled ineither the ME or MET curriculum. Many of the students fill dual roles: That is, they helpdefine the projects in their role as club members and are then enlisted by courseinstructors to design/build/test the components as members of the design teams working,resulting in a course grade. This scenario has resulted in a level of student involvement in– and enthusiasm for – the engineering education process that has rarely been seen beforeat this

Being offered both, asa business class and an engineering class, the class also helped strengthen the ties andcollaboration between the engineering department and the business school.From its inception, one of the key tenets of the class was to generate and select student ideas and,over the course of a semester, transform these ideas into tangible products. Teams of six to eightstudents from both the business school and engineering department would receive a budget of$1,000 to do this.
