Moreover, OSU’sHonors House is funding an interdisciplinary course on "Sensor Materials," targeted for honorsstudents in engineering and physical sciences. This multifaceted program is strengthening tiesbetween the federal, state, university and industry partners. The greatest benefit has come fromintroducing industry projects into the university’s engineering and physical sciences, thusproviding students and faculty the opportunity to work on research relevant to industry.I.

Despite the current efforts being made, job openings in the manufacturing sector exceedapplicants, primarily due to a skills gap, resulting in part from the introduction of new advancedtechnologies and automation.

To realize the full potential of this technology, engineersmust be trained to manage the complex design problems that are entailed.

. Page 13.732.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2008 Incorporating HDL Based Design Flow in EET CurriculumAbstract:Based on industry trends and advances in silicon manufacturing technology in recent years,it is becoming apparent that future electrical and computer engineers will most likelyimplement their digital designs using programmable logic devices such as CPLDs andFPGAs, rather than discreet IC components. They may also encounter electronic systemsbuilt on such devices in their engineering practice. Therefore, it has become necessary toincorporate related design techniques into courses even at the undergraduate level. Thispaper discusses the introduction of and teaching of such courses to undergraduates majoringin the
