Therefore, as a program we are constrained to placing Introduction toCircuits in the second semester of junior year. While this is later than at some other institutions`(where a course like this can be taken at the sophomore or even freshman level), it presentsopportunities to cover topics in the context of other Mechanical Engineering subjects.

These basisvectors can be manipulated interactively by mouse drag and the associated dual basis vectorsare modified simultaneously by the program. Position vectors can be inserted and their co-and contravariant components are computed and displayed. Furthermore, general rotations ofa Cartesian coordinate frame, described by Euler angles, can be performed.This approach provides an early and playful access to higher semester topics without

Theseteams are known to decrease time-to-market, reduce costs, and improve quality. Terms such as concurrentengineering, simultaneous engineering, and integrated product development have been used to describe thework performed by these product design teams. Engineering education has been slow to follow this trend. For the most part, students take courses andperform laboratory exercises in their chosen major, with little exposure to other disciplines. They rarely, ifever, work together with students from other disciplines. There are numerous reasons for this phenomenon.On one hand, the scope of required topics has

. At thisinstitution, 32 credit hours of general education are required, not including the math and sciencerequirements which are already covered by ABET. This is above the national average forengineering programs which is 26.7 hours7. The joint nature of the engineering programsrequires each student to take 16 to 18 credit hours via ITV from the partner institution. These 3constraining factors account for approximately 110 to 112 credit hours of the engineeringprograms.

and engineering and overall minority trends is one of the most critical issues confronting the educational system. For example, by the year 2000, 85 percent of those entering the labor force for the first time areexpected to be women, minorities, immigrants, and disabled individuals. Furthermore, in 1990, 23 of the largest25 school districts in the United States were dominated by “minorities.” Accordingly, the need to diversify thepipeline of engineering students arises not only from a desire to provide equal opportunity to all, but from a verypractical concern of a serious shortfall of scientists and engineers in the very near future.1 Many reasons have been cited for the low enrollments and poor retention of women and
