IntroductionFor over two years the undergraduate program in mechanical engineering at Michigan StateUniversity has operated in a continuous quality improvement process mode. A CQI processknown as ME 2000 has been developed for the undergraduate mechanical engineering degreeprogram at Michigan State University in response to two primary motivations: 1) changes in the accreditation requirements for engineering programs 2

These goals are what Waitz and Barrettterm “implicit curriculum”, those educational topics students are expected to know (oftenrequested by employers and alumnae/i), but not taught in any course [16].The design experience is offered at the senior and introductory graduate students as a sixteen-week semester three credit-hour course. The course was organized into two hours lecture andthree hours laboratory each week. Since the later design tasks require much time, lecture periodsare scheduled for every meeting early in the semester to cover subject material required in the lab-oratory portion of the course

, adapting to the change hascaused many programs to become increasingly aware of what similar programs are doing inother parts of the country or even other parts of the world. A part of all strategic planningincludes comparing oneself to one’s competitors. In the educational world, we are notnecessarily so concerned with competition but with improving and serving students. Hence,institutions frequently collaborate, so the term benchmarking is used for the initial comparisonbetween programs. This paper benchmarks two urban Mechanical Engineering Technologyprograms and compares their background, objectives and outcomes, curriculum, and laboratories.It is hoped that this benchmark will encourage other programs to perform similar comparisons inan effort

Cyber attacks on critical infrastructure,specifically the Industrial Control Systems (ICS) by which critical processes are controlled,affect water, power, critical manufacturing and many other areas vital to society. Therefore, theeducation of new engineers to mitigate these attacks is also critical. One key problem that hasexisted for some time is the separation of cyber-security education, in the Computer InformationScience (CIS) discipline, from that of ICS education, in the electrical and other engineeringdisciplines as ICS engineers. This separation results in misunderstanding between CIS and ICSprofessionals who typically remain divided within

Among those issues is the strengthening of America.While useful to some degree, the market pull approach is necessarily reactionary,shortsighted, and works not to strengthen America’s economy but to weaken it.
