paper presents an educational effort to develop a curriculum in engineering managementwith a concentration in safety engineering at a university in the southeast United States. Thisprogram is offered both at the graduate level as well as some courses being offered at the duallevel. Both online learning as well as classroom learning is adopted to maximize outreach andaddress the needs of a growing population of students.Safety and hazardous waste management constitute the two principal pillars of programdevelopment. This paper presents an overview of the curriculum. It also examines the applicationof Six Sigma principles to curriculum development.

At that time, Behrend owned approximately five 3Dprinters, and we initially developed a course where the students could utilize the machinesowned by Behrend. The course was a 1 credit lab that the senior ME students could take to filltheir program requirements (two laboratory courses of their choosing). The machines werecentrally located in Innovation Commons at Behrend, which is a makerspace that was developedby Behrend to support innovation and early manufacturing of prototypes for all Behrend studentsand local

Education, 2007 A New Paradigm to Improve Computer Education for Engineering Students: Applying Industry-based Software Development Cycle into Programming Practices Abstract Computer Programming for Engineers (or Introductory Computer Education for Engineering Students) is a fundamental engineering course in many universities. However, in the public domain, there has not been enough research on how to improve programming practices (programming labs and homework assignments) of the students. What paradigm should be followed when the students are programming? How is this paradigm helpful for students’ learning? These questions are yet to be answered. In this

While many of the student designs were not developed in depth, introducing students toa complete design experience early on in their design curriculum allowed the students to betterunderstand the need for a clear problem definition, quality requirements, rigorous decisionmaking, and clear communication. As student buy-in at various stages was highly affected by thetype of product they were working on, changing the product types at each stage ensured that nostudent was forced to work in an area they did not enjoy for the entirety of the project.
