graduation. In order tomake continuous improvements, maintain relevance, and ensure course material matches currentengineering needs and requirements, the CoE has fostered a unique relationship with localengineers through its very active Industrial Advisory Board (IAB). The IAB consists ofprofessional engineers from various local industries. The IAB members have expressed theirdesire for our graduates to have a competitive advantage by possessing more than just thetechnical skills of an engineering degree. To this end, we have launched a strategic initiative, theEngineer of 2020, in order to prepare graduates for effective engagement in the engineeringprofession. This initiative is in part motivated by two reports from the National Academy
of various renewable energy sources.4. Summary and conclusions To recap, the alternative energy industry is experiencing unprecedented growth, necessitating an ever-increasing number of graduates with corresponding skill sets. However, the majority of universities are still stuck in what some researchers have dubbed the “carbon lock-in”, offering courses and degrees almost exclusively for the traditional energy sector. A major transformation in energy / power education is therefore required. However, universities desiring to teach alternative energy courses are often confronted with educational, technological as well as economic challenges as outlined in section 1.3. In particular, providing students with practical, hands-on experiences can

, including the integration of technology and learning. The pedagogy that is usedis based on the Dimensions of Learning (DOL) framework, a powerful, effective andcomprehensive model that uses what researchers and theorists know about learning to define thelearning process. It differs from most pedagogical approaches used in higher education, andwith this technique the optimum approach to teaching and learning is being sought. Engineeringapplications are being incorporated to motivate students and enhance their learning. Typically only 25% of new freshmen engineering students at Morgan State Universityenroll in Calculus I (MATH241), based on the University’s mathematics placement test, leaving75% who are not “Calculus ready.” The average

The distributions for DSP background as well as MATLABand C programming are fairly even ranging from no background to graduate level DSP coursesand no experience to extreme proficiency, respectively. Additionally, the vast majority ofstudents wish to have a good balance between DSP theory and application. Students tend toprimarily access the course remotely from home or the office. Also, 32 out of 52 students werefully funded to take this course by a company, organization, or institution.The final course survey results with quantitative responses may be seen in Table 1.

Nearly every study of women’sattitudes shows that women work for the same reasons men do: first of all for the money, butalso for the satisfaction of using their skills11. Belle Rose Ragins, an Associate Professor ofManagement at Marquette University in Milwaukee, claims that research findings indicate acontinued and “profound disconnect” between female executives and their bosses when itcomes to perceptions about gender equity in the workplace.” 3Respondents to this survey had many tips on how to fight gender differences in the workplace.Most, however, were tips on how women could overcome those differences and
