(2credit hours), Financial Engineering (3 credit hours), Project Engineering and Work TeamDesign (3 credit hours), and Engineering Administration (3 credit hours). Additionally, studentswill complete the Engineering Leadership & Management Experimental Laboratory courses I-II/Capstone (7 credit hours total). It is anticipated that students will complete this program inthree semesters, earning a total of 18 hours.Administration: a. This program will be administered under the auspices of the Industrial Engineering and Management Systems Department in accordance with applicable policy and regulation. b. To avoid excess hour issues, students will be able to dual count student credit hours of

2006-1302: HOW MUCH WORK ARE YOU REALLY DOINGJoseph Flynn, The College of New Jersey Page 11.696.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2006 How Much Work Are You Really Doing?IntroductionThe published teaching schedule is often an embarrassment to both faculty and administrationbecause it suggests that a full time faculty member is working eight or perhaps twelve hours eachweek and seven months a year. We try to sell the idea that the remaining time is spent on“preparation”, but no one seems to be buying. This paper offers a method of determiningworkload based on evaluation of process time for all the activities associated with teaching.Analysis is based on

. “Manufacturing WorkEnvironments”, a graduate course at Grand Valley State University (GVSU) addresses the issuesrelated to work measurement, method improvement, safety, and ergonomic aspects in workdesign. As a practice oriented teaching school, GVSU highly emphasizes the culmination of thelearning process by the realistic execution of the principles and techniques taught in a course. Inthat tradition, this course employed a semester ending project as an important tool to develop theproper understanding of the course materials.This particular project idea involved improving the efficiency, performance and workenvironment at the Science, Technology, and Engineering Preview Summer (STEPS) camp heldat Grand Valley State University.
