compelling argumentfor Eastern Washington University to bring its new state of the art Software EngineeringTechnology program to fruition.4. Work PlanA new curriculum will be developed in the emerging discipline of Software EngineeringTechnology as part of the department- and school-level reform being undertaken at EasternWashington University. SET will initially be set as an option for the ABET-accredited programcurrently at EWU. Faculty in the Department of Engineering Technology and Multimedia Designhave already developed a preliminary, freshman- through senior-year curriculum outline for theSET program (Appendix A). As currently envisioned, this curriculum is based on a series ofexisting lower division prerequisite courses in mathematics

This paper describes two such unique graduate programs that were developed througha systematic analysis of national critical technologies, future manpower demand projections,academic and research background of our faculty, and the interests of our students. The M.S.program in Computer and Information Systems Engineering (CISE), an interdisciplinary fieldthat integrates different aspects of computer engineering, computer science, electricalengineering, systems engineering and information systems, was implemented in fall 1997. It hassince experienced a phenomenal growth in student enrollment. A Ph.D. in CISE program, whichbuilds on the master’s program as its core, has since been developed and approved forimplementation.1

, a participant could elect to receive either 65PDPs at no charge to the participant or 3 graduate credits from Endicott College at theparticipant's expense. Participants choosing to receive graduate credit were enrolled in agraduate course at the local college's graduate school and were graded on their workduring the summer by the community college instructors of the institute. Grades weresubmitted in September. During the fall of 2006, after grades had been submitted, theparticipants met with the community college faculty to share their personally designedlessons and the results of using the lessons in their classrooms.During the summer of 2007, Northern Essex Community College hosted a similar 45-hour Professional Development Institute
that training would be needed to lead faculty through the process of developing a competency-based curriculum. This need was met through a Skills Integration Workshop discussed later in this report. Pathways for Continued Professional Growth: The community colleges in the RITC acknowledge the following facts: 1. Industry certification is very important in today’s IT workforce. 2. Students are ignoring the opportunities available to them when they complete a college degree because they believe that the quickest path to success is through the acquisition of industry certifications. 3. More than one third of IT managers ranked the non-technical, employability skills as very important
faculty who teach in Science, Technology, Engineering, &Mathematics (STEM) related areas. The courses developed for the graduate certificate enhancefaculty abilities in both online and classroom environments. The program is currently in its thirdyear with the first cohort of community college teachers from North Carolina and South Carolinacompleting their fifth course. A second cohort began in the fall of 2005. The project meets thebroader goals of the NSF-Advanced Technological Education (ATE) program byinstitutionalizing the means by which working professionals can be recruited to fill shortages incommunity college faculty teaching positions in STEM fields. It also provides a means wherebycurrent community college faculty can upgrade their

The goal and method of approach canbe summarized as:Goal: - To train undergraduate and graduate students in advanced computation with an emphasis on the capabilities and uses of parallel computers.Approach - Through the introduction of a sequence of courses at the senior and introductory graduate level in advanced computation; through the development of software demonstrations

Specialized labs and equipment will also aid faculty intheir research and foster further industrial partnerships, with the goal of developing newtechnologies and new applications for both current and new applications.The SCES facility itself is a living laboratory for engineering students and faculty, designed withmonitors and controls throughout. HVAC, refrigeration equipment, building network equipment,building structural steel, atmospheric conditions in and out of the building, and system controlssuch as temperature and security monitoring will be instrumented to provide readings on stressand strain, power factor, heat loads, equipment efficiency, network statistics, and electrical load.Significance of the Electrical Engineering ProgramThe

of being too general and too detailed. If your plan is too general, it will lead to faculty reactions that run from a polite, “Outcomes assessment is a little vague, and we will benefit from more details,” to the confrontational, “Outcomes assessment is too vague, and we won’t do anything until someone tells us what to do.” If your plan is too detailed, the enormity of the workload will force a negative reaction from your faculty.C Develop a plan that is as general as the faculty in your organization will tolerate. This will allow them the flexibility to make choices that suit their needs.C Do not wait until you have your plan fully conceptualized before you share it with your organization

Although thiscollege-wide program relieved some of the professional development burden from individualacademic departments, they may continue to offer their own professional development initiativestailored to their specific technical needs.In 2015, a Career Compass Program Advisory Board was established which includes both publicand private sector professionals from all major branches of the engineering profession. Thisboard worked with faculty, staff, and students from the College of Engineering, including theDean and Associate Dean for Academic Affairs, to develop a list of the primary topics thatshould be included in the Career Compass Program (Table 1). In addition to these topics

third is the ability to adapt segments fordelivery as short courses to engineers from industry.One of the original motivations behind initiating segmentation was indeed to provide aconvenient mechanism for delivery of educational materials to industrial students. Courses inMaterials Science and Engineering (MSE) were decomposed into segments. Simultaneously, theMSE faculty was developing a new joint master's program in Electronics Packaging withElectrical and Computer Engineering faculty. The potential benefits of course segmentation oncurriculum development soon became apparent.A seed project has been initiated at the Oregon Graduate Institute with the support of theNational Science Foundation.
