The general problems relatedwith internal issues like defects and waste to achieve product quality and time delivery.On the other hand, the relevant objectives of service sectors are customer satisfaction andloyalty. Due to the different goals on manufacturing and service sectors, procedures torecognize problems in service industries toned to be developed.This piece of work proposes a toolkit to support the recognition of projects from a differentperspective. It proposes the use of different service quality models aimed to serviceorganizations to integrate customer

allow students to become familiar with the terminology and concepts. It also includes developing lab modules for appropriate courses. An example of such an effort was conducted in the fall semester of 2012 in IEGR363: Manufacturing Processes, an IE core course. The course was conducted as a theme-based class having the theme, ‘efficient energy use in manufacturing’. The course also had a hands-on laboratory that included modules in energy auditing.Level 2: Development of interdisciplinary courses This would allow the skills needed for energy engineers to be gained. These courses are: a) Power and Energy use and auditing offered by electrical engineering department. b) Smart Building Technologies

On average, students got 2.4 out of the 5 questions correct. Figure 6 shows the percentage of students that had a certain number of correct answers in this assessment overall. For example, 13.6% of students did not get any questions correct and 4.5% got all the questions for this module correct. Per question type, 56.8% of the students got the correct answers for the theoretical questions and 42.4% of students got the correct answers for the RStudio questions. B.

Although not a new concept, the blended classroom has theopportunity to blend the best features of the online and classroom environment. This researchwas conducted to determine if blended courses provided evidence of student satisfaction and costsavings compared to face-to-face courses. A Five Pillar Quality Framework was used to assessblended courses. Five engineering education courses offered in both the face-to-face format andblended format were used. Grades were analyzed using a t-test, and the results of a survey givento students are presented. The results supported prior research that a blended course offersstudent

In our meetings with potential recruiters, including major consultingfirms, transportation companies, financial firms, health care providers, and manufacturers, it isclear that employers seek out IEs for their quantitative tools (probability
