, information is likely to be gathered one student at atime.II. IntroductionThe purpose of the paper is to discuss the author’s experience in providing engineeringinstruction and academic advising to a quadriplegic baccalaureate engineering student and todraw conclusions about this process and make recommendations that can improve the prospectsof such students successfully completing their education. The majority of the academicexperience comes from four courses that I taught to the quadriplegic student, which can bebroken into two general categories. The first category is freshman- level introductoryengineering courses, while the second is sophomore- level engineering mechanics courses. Eachcategory of courses presents different types of challenges

. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2016 Espoused Faculty Epistemologies for Engineering Mathematics: Towards Defining “Mathematical Maturity” for Engineering1. IntroductionWhat role should mathematics play in an engineering student’s education? A typical engineeringundergraduate takes a five-semester course sequence of Calculus I, Calculus II, Calculus III,Linear Algebra and Differential equations (henceforth known as the calculus sequence). Thissequence forms a rigid prerequisite structure for many engineering curricula. A single failinggrade in one of these prerequisite courses can prevent a student from being able to progress intotheir engineering curriculum. Students may have to substantially delay graduation

. Conclusion and outlook This paper aimed at providing an overview of the EWB Challenge’s implementation at the RWTH Aachen University. Furthermore, the evaluation concept and its result were presented, as these are the first results of the perception of EBW Challenge of students in Germany. As a typical example of PBL, the EWB Challenge does not only enhance generic knowledge like team work and communication skills but it also increases content-related knowledge. In particular, it increases the students’ awareness of sustainability in diverse international contexts. Therefore, the EWB Challenge was chosen as a suitable method to be implemented in German engineering education and was launched at the RWTH Aachen University in

In mostcases, these programmatic objectives and outcomes are industry driven so that our graduateshave the skill sets needed to obtain quality employment after graduation and be able to make apositive impact from the first day of employment. In addition, each program must track theability of the program to follow these outcomes and objectives and provide assessment data foraccreditation and any other reviews, including internal reviews.

: Examining Differing Faculty PerspectivesAbstractThe question of what comprises effective engineering ethics education is intriguing and complex.Broadly, this research is attempting to identify strong models for macroethics education, so-called “exemplars”. Faculty interviews resulted in 35 descriptions of current ethics instructionalpractices: two programs, 32 individual courses (including first-year, capstone design, requiredand elective technical courses, and standalone ethics courses), and one co-curricular setting.Based on tenets of the I-Corps-L program, particularly its “customer discovery” process, thegoal of the interview analysis was to determine which of these teaching methods warrantedfurther study as

Whether this is due to self-selection into the field,enculturation during study, or other factors is beyond the scope of this study, but thephenomenon must be recognized and seriously considered if the Finnish
