tenured/tenure-track (t/tt) faculty in the U.S. are women. However, the proportion of women ateach academic rank shrinks as women move up the academic ladder. Women comprise just over half oft/tt assistant professors, 45% of t/tt associate professors, and just under a third of tenured full professors[5]. The lack of parity between women and men is especially pronounced in certain disciplines, includingSTEM fields such as engineering and computing [7] and humanities fields such as philosophy [8].Disparities occur at all administrative levels, from department chair, to dean, provost, and presidentiallevels. In contrast, women are overrepresented in lower-powered positions, such as non-tenure track orcontingent faculty. Where progress is being made

Since joining the Olin College faculty she has also dived into the field of engineering education with an emphasis on integration of arts, humanities, and STEM. Her love of learning was first fostered by an unusual elementary school education that was deeply inter- disciplinary with a substantial arts curriculum. After graduating from Harvard University with a B.A. in Dramatic Literature, she worked professionally in theater and wrote and recorded two musical albums. She then returned to school to study engineering, earning a B.S. in Civil Engineering from Rutgers Uni- versity in 2011. While completing her degree at Rutgers, she wrote

In these courses the processof particle transport, deposition and removal and re-entrainment was described. Anextensive web for the course materials was developed and the courses were taughtsimultaneously at Clarkson University and Syracuse University.Course Modules These combined research and curriculum development (CRCD) courses arecomposed of four modules. The models are: • Fundamental of particle transport, dispersion, deposition and removal. • Computational modeling of particle transport, deposition and removal

systems allows practical application of the RF theorydiscussed in the lecture room. Another possible technology course where RFID may beintegrated is computer networking. Many interrogators are Ethernet ready and can be assigned anIP address. The high level of data throughput between interrogators and servers is an excellentstudy in computer network loading. Networking students can study various ways to deal withhigh traffic volumes. Computer technology students would also benefit from developingsoftware to interface the interrogator with an existing database. This type of software is knownas “middleware” in the RFID industry.In summary, RFID technology can be presented in the ECET curriculum in two basic ways: asan AS capstone systems

Again, thisissue does not effect the two-year ABET programs as much since they are inclined to emphasizethe basics for two years and tend to defer the applications of the technology to the upper-levelfour-year programs. These curriculum issues will be addressed in more detail later in varioussections of this paper.How have ET faculty reacted to the problem of declining enrollment?

In light of those recommendations and issues discussed at aNSF/CSS workshop, the author raises the question of appropriate contents for a control systemcourse as taught in a typical first course ET program. Presently, the majority of electrical, somemechanical and almost all electromechanical engineering technology programs have a course intheir curriculum called control systems. Even though they carry the same name, most often theircontents are drastically different. In many programs the focus of the course is on the applicationof typical classical control. There are some programs where the whole course is aboutapplication and
