Meetings were held with university officials andrepresentatives from Lab-Volt and Amtek to discuss the design of the laboratory and thenature and scope of experiments that would result in improvements in undergraduateeducation of engineering and technology majors. During these meetings, it wasdetermined that the partnership could expand its original purpose to include atelecommunications training program for non-students seeking to enhance their technicalskills. With the support of the University’s Continuing Education Program, the Universityand corporate representatives discussed plans to offer continuing education

Module 1: Unified Life Cycle EngineeringA common complaint of engineering undergraduates is that they lack the breadth to see theimpact of engineering and design on a company’s business and society in general. The courseaddresses this competency gap by first showing students how design fits into the overall lifecycle of a technology, product and process, and how these three cycles are in turn involved in asingle unified life cycle for product development, design and production.
