Integration of rulebased modeling of dynamic systems and analytical computation of transfer functions withMATLAB provides a viable pedagogical tool for undergraduate education in LinearSystem Control.IntroductionLinear Vibrations and Linear System Control are relatively difficult courses inundergraduate curriculum for Aerospace, Mechanical as well as Electrical engineeringstudents. The primary difficulty lies in developing the equations of motion from givenphysical system. In applying the Newton’s force method, one should have goodunderstanding of degree of freedom and free body diagram. In applying the energymethod, one should have good understanding of kinetic energy, potential energy, anddamping energy. Although

Page 12.325.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2007 Bringing New Topics into the IE CurriculumAbstractThe need to focus efforts on environmental concerns rings important to young people aswell as to the National Academy of Engineers. The need to raise awareness about theenvironmental impact of decisions in manufacturing and product design should be at theforefront of curriculum enhancement efforts. Industrial Engineers are typically viewed as“systems thinkers” and need to analyze the larger eco-system when new designs are putin place. Thus, the systems-approach to environmentally responsible design andmanufacturing has a natural place in the Industrial Engineering curriculum.The challenge to engineering faculty may

While IE’s diverse knowledge domainscontribute to its uniqueness, they also highlight the need to effectively integrate material fromthese different domains into a compact curriculum. To succeed, students must learn how tointegrate these different concepts and apply them to the complex problems that they will face inpractice.In response to the challenges facing engineering educators in general, and IE educators inparticular, we are revising the undergraduate IE curriculum at the University of Pittsburgh withfour primary objectives in mind: 1.

(emphasis added)EAC has several features that make it an effective response to ABET 2000:1. It presents students with a more unified and integrated curriculum.One of the problems of outsourcing ethics to, say, the philosophy department is that studentscome away with the impression that ethics is not an integral part of engineering practice.Because their exposure is outside the mainstream engineering curriculum, they conclude thatethical problems do not occur in real world practice.
