Development ProcessCurrent needs of the packaging industry, especially the machinery manufacturers, call for acombination of electrical and mechanical skills. Some schools such as Penn State and RIT haveinstituted BS degree programs in Electro-Mechanical or Electrical-Mechanical ET and a numberof two year programs in Integrated Systems Technology have sprung up with help fromworkforce development funding.

The AWIM program brings math and science principles to life throughhighly interactive learning experiences that incorporate the laws of physics, motion, flight, andelectronics. The AWIM curriculum is designed around current national math, science, andtechnology student learning standards.There are three AWIM “Challenges.” We chose to use Challenge 2, whose premise is that acompany named “Mobility Toys, Inc." is searching for new ideas for its

The answersto these questions are invariably that engineering technology programs are based on the practicalapplication of engineering with graduates working to support licensed engineers/architects. Inaddition, engineering programs are theory and design based with graduates focused on designingand managing projects [1]. Students enrolled in Architectural Engineering Technology Programswho plan to become registered architects face an additional challenge however depending on thestate that they plan to seek licensure.
