Engineering Educationrequired to partially dismantle a power electronic converter to enable a closer examination ofits construction and operation. They were also required to study the interconnection ofcomponents, conduct performance tests, collect data, and develop a detailed computersimulation model for the system. Such model would be adequate for system redesign. To be successful in this project students need basic knowledge of power electroniccircuits, understanding of the design of automatic control systems, familiarity with softwaremodeling tools for electrical network and systems, and a sufficient amount of time within thenormal semester. The students involved in this project were in their final year, and wereenrolled in their first

equipment are relying on computers to control system parameters. Al- though embedded computers are powerful and flexible tools for industry, these very advantages have contributed to a corresponding increase in system complexity. In order to adequately prepare today’s computer science, computer engineering, and electrical engineering students for their future careers, the special problems with embedded sys- tems development must be adequately addressed in their education. In this paper, we report on our multi-pronged approach to curriculum development that specifically incorporates embedded systems into a suite of relevant courses: software engineering, operating systems, digital system design, and computer system

When such a communication occurred, it waslimited to the postal mail, phone, and fax, the communication reported here is Internet-based.Students enrolled in EET-310 Analog Signal Processing at two of DeVry’s campuses (Atlantaand Toronto) were encouraged to technically communicated using the Internet and form workingteams although they never meet face to face.

The reviewedliterature indicated that active learning strategies frequently used in engineering educationinclude collaborative problem-solving, peer discussions such as think-pair-share, team-basedprojects and assignments, case-based learning, and incremental task scaffolding. Given thenature of engineering education, which integrates problem-solving, design projects, andlaboratory-based learning, these findings underscore the need for discipline-specificapproaches to implementing active learning

In engineering, the first course in thermodynamics is takenearly on by students, and is considered a difficult course by students, and as a filtering course bysome instructors in some engineering programs. In mechanical engineering, thermodynamicshas been described as the gateway course, meaning students’ performance in thermodynamicscorrelates well with how students do in the rest of the courses in the curriculum.1 Fuchs2 statedthat thermodynamics is considered to be one of

an important aspect of engineering practice during the second industrial revolution, which started in the late 19th century. Today, the importance of teamwork skills for engineers is codified in the ABET accreditation requirements (ABET 2021). Too often, we, as instructors, put students in teams and assume they will learn teamwork skills organically. As a result, the majority of students report at least one type of interpersonal problem on projects and many report reduced learning as a result (Wolfe et al. 2016). In most cases, we don’t learn about the problems until reading student peer evaluations or we don’t learn about them at all. Either way, the opportunity to correct the situations has passed and the damage is done. In

Seal force is the integrity of the sealing quality of the rubber stoppers that cap thepharmaceutical drug vials. The usual process of testing it is by performing a compressive test.The entire task was distributed between mechanical and electrical engineering students.

In most manufacturing and automationprocesses, robots are used for moving parts and are controlled by industrial PLCs. Properintegration of external I/O devices, sensors and actuating motors with PLC input and outputcards is very important to run the process smoothly without any faults and/or safety concerns.Most traditional electrical and computer engineering (ECE) programs offer high level of motiontheory and controls but little hands-on exposure to PLCs which are the main industrialcontrollers.
