Figure 1 below is drawn from the department’s senior surveydata [1] and shows graduates’ average reported interest in their classes for each year of thecurriculum. There is a large increase from the second to third year, with smaller increases fromthe first to second and third to fourth years. While ​there are likely many reasons for that shift,there was a consistent trend in the associated qualitative feedback of students indicating that theirinterest increased as they started to see a clearer connection between what they were learning andthe kinds of work they were likely to encounter as practicing engineers.Figure 1: Senior Survey Reporting of

Despite the Office of Technology’sefforts there is no specific designated staff who can work across the range of all the differentaspects of GIS-related technical issues; it has been a complex path to start to develop lines ofsupport for quick problem solving.One of the bigger challenges is the lack of technological infrastructure to store locally-generatedspatial data.

The use of MAESTRO in the graduateprogram affords the students greater insight into ship structural response to load effects that arenot always accurately analyzed by current manual methods (simple prismatic beam analysis). Inthe undergraduate program, the students use MAESTRO to develop a structural model as part oftheir senior ship design project.

Many also have medical bills that consume much of their income, whichforces them to put off needed home repairs and modifications.

The ethical challenge appears to be clear: how can we foster and provide meaning and purposefor all individuals, no matter their talent, motivation, or status, given an increasingly materialistworldview and the individual’s shrinking importance within it; that is, given an ethicalworldview based on reason alone? This is the modern ethical conundrum, the moral challengethat confronts the current and probably the next generation.
