accredited(ideally) [4]. Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) serves as theaccrediting body for many engineering and engineering technology programs, accrediting over500 higher learning institutions [5]. While the value of accreditation may be debatable, currentlyit is the benchmark of engineering and engineering technology schools, and certainly adds to theintegrity of accredited universities. If and how online courses and degree programs will impactour integrity is somewhat unknown, but should be a factor during online course development.Of equal importance, the works of faculty and graduates provide universities gain in reputation:an import consideration given the pervasiveness of online education.

engineering course in engineeringeducation is essential to prepare the students to solve industry challenges. Innovative methods inteaching, including the cross-cultural student integration, have proven effective to enhancesuccess in multidisciplinary engineering design teams.Senior design projects are essential to demonstrate engineering graduates’ industry-readiness [5].The Engineering Technology program at UTRGV offers a wide range of options from which thestudents will develop engineering skills to address engineering and technological challenges. Atthe end of the coursework, the students must complete an industry-related, research-basedcapstone project, which in specific cases involves the design and development of a functionalprototype.The

acceptance (sometimes a bias issue),and avoiding professional prejudice. However, this document will report that some of theseadvantages are not as clear today as in the past. In fact, the graduate school and licensureopportunities for holders of BS degrees in CE or CET may be nearly identical in the future.2. Proposed CurriculumA proposed CE course list (Figure 1) and block schedule have been developed based on ABET-EAC criteria for 2008-2009 Accreditation Cycle21, conversations with ABET-EAC/TACevaluators, and review of curricula at selected peer institutions. The existing CET check list ispresented in Figure 2 for comparison. Courses that have been dropped from the existing CETcurriculum are shaded. Please note that our University is on a

meet the demands ofan increasingly “flat” world, where competencies that go beyond pure technical skills, includingcreativity, leadership, flexibility, and communication, are becoming more and more essential.3, 4Traditional engineering education is also being challenged to respond to emerging fields that blurdisciplinary boundaries, such as nanotechnology, synthetic biology, and biomemetics. Manyworry that the U.S. production of engineering graduates lags well behind that of some notablecompetitor nations, such as China, a shortfall not only in absolute numbers but also in the overallpercentage of college graduates who have an engineering degree.1What has been largely absent from most discussions of the future of the US technical workforceis

The 2+2 transfer agreements removed the“terminal degree” perception at the AAS level, the major difficulty to healthy WisconsinTechnical College System Electronics Technology enrollments. Adoption of core electronicscompetencies among the various districts of the WTCS was instrumental to transfer agreementformation on a statewide basis. Despite different curricula, the eight AAS-EET programs in theWTCS all completely fulfill the transfer requirements of the BS-EET program at MSOE.
