As such, thecivil engineering faculty at Oregon Tech proposed and gained permission to offer an MSCEdegree, which would allow the civil engineering department to continue to fulfill its objective toprepare students for professional practice.Institutional ChangeThe decision to offer an MSCE program was also institutionally influenced. Oregon Tech hasstrategically been moving away from associate’s degrees and toward advanced degrees.

While the number of biomedical engineering degrees granted an-nually is increasing, many biomedical engineers have a background in chemical, mechanical, or electricalengineering with some specialized biomedical training.

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

First, real-world engineering examples are integrated intocomputer simulations to make student learning relevant and meaningful. Second, mathematicalcalculations are integrated into computer simulations, so students can connect physics conceptswith mathematical equations to understand each concept pair in greater depth. Third, computersimulations are interactive and require students’ inputs to promote active learning.This paper presents the computer simulation module that we recently developed for andimplemented in a high school physics course.
