overviewCompared to the traditional College Algebra, contemporary College Algebra (CCA) is designedto educate students for the future workplace or real life needs rather than to train them for thepast. The largest cohort (approximately one-third) of students passing college algebra goes intoschools of business. However their need for elementary data analysis, modeling real-worldproblems, using technology, gaining small-group experience, and developing communicationskills are not addressed in traditional college algebra (TCA) courses. In spite of providingnumerous exercises involving exponential functions, the traditional courses do not prepare socialor life science majors to model growth situations, nor does it prepare economic majors to modelthe

and related fields inthe last few years. Industrial and systems engineering (ISE) and supply chain management(SCM) online programs are among the fastest growing online programs. This paper includes asurvey of some current teaching trends and study plans from top ISE and SCM online graduateprograms. There is a common ground between ISE and SCM. In general, there are some similarcourses in the two fields and an overlap in the study plans; this is more obvious in theundergraduate level. This paper introduces a comparison between the ISE and SCM onlineprograms at the master’s degree level. The survey of this study can be used to develop a graduateonline curriculum for an up-to-date program that combines ISE and SCM.KeywordsEngineering Education

, often conflated with engineeringjudgment, serves only as a contributing factor or may occasionally be used to justify judgmentsafter the fact. The engineers in Gainsburg’s study identified engineering judgment with tasks likedetermining sufficient precision for calculations, making modeling assumptions, and sometimesoverriding mathematical results. Petroski’s [3] analysis of engineering failures similarlyemphasizes judgment’s role throughout the design process, noting that “the first and mostindispensable design tool is judgment” that both initiates projects and monitors their execution.However, engineering education typically emphasizes technical competencies over judgment-based skills, with the Grinter Report noting that “the ability to deal
