Offerman conceptualized and tested a10-element model to guide the faculty and administration at five nursing schools in theWisconsin university system to design and implement a collaborative degree program. ThoughOfferman’s model was applied within a single state’s university system and included activities tofoster faculty buy-in, there were

Thisprogram, the Systems Design and Management (SDM) program, is offered jointly by MIT’sSchool of Engineering and the Sloan School of Management, and combines an education insystems engineering and design with essential management concepts. After the launch ofSDM, CIPD industry sponsors requested a specialized track to address the productdevelopment process. With the help of CIPD, the SDM program introduced the

At the same time, newindustries, which required higher skill sets, began locating in the greater Portland area.These included such companies as National Semiconductor, Fairchild Semiconductor,Pratt and Whitney, Idexx Laboratories and other.

Salinger describes the breadth of standards for science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM) education and concluded that standards should cause crosscurricular teaching and learning and that the standards should be geared toward higherlevels of achievement. He is not specific regarding what to teach, however, he stronglyemphasized the need for curriculum integration among STEM subject areas. The collaboration between engineering and technology educators is an importantinitiative that has tremendous potential for benefiting both. Therefore, the
