The AeA was responding to an internal report generatedby a task force from its state Council which advised that “state colleges and universities mustincrease capacity and improve access for would-be students” and that “the legislature shouldfocus on funding new capacity in higher education.” The only State university on the west sideof the state offering an EE degree received state funding to increase capacity by 20%, but theneed for more qualified graduating engineers remained unmet. The AeA had identified NSCC asa well suited community college partner for EWU, as its laboratories had been recentlyrenovated to include state-of-the-art equipment for the pre-engineering and other technology-related programs.

In addition, the world’s technology isadvancing so fast that eventually all new inventions and innovations will be multi-disciplinary.To me this could mean that the engineering curriculum should change to adapt to the demands ofthe future. Multidisciplinary projects are the small steps that the engineering education is takingto adapt to that demand. Lastly, these multidisciplinary projects also have all the benefits of

First, many have acted as consultants, providing expertise that requires little change inperspective from their scientific research. Second, and by far, the largest impact has come fromindividual scientists who have committed themselves to education. They have becomeeducators. This has meant following the same approach they would use in delving into a newfield of science. They have studied the problems hard, read the
