This depends not only on our background and specialization, butalso on how we see Higher Education and its role in today’s society. However, we need to clearly statethe reasons why we chose to focus on those aspects. In today’s world, providing the students with onlythe technical tools and skills in the engineering and technological fields is not enough to ensure theirprofessional and personal success. Today’s society demands professionals who are not only proficient intheir areas of expertise, but they are aware of the

The traditional course is no longer relevant to the majority of electrical engineeringstudents, and therefore has lost its place as a core course in many curricula. The course

increasingly complextechnical society. Continued specialization is needed to provide the basic foundations of new andemerging technologies. It is therefore, important to modify curricula continuously to incorporatemore applied, product-oriented programs while maintaining the concepts of basic science,mathematics and engineering sciences. It is also important to periodically refocus the researchparadigm. Today, that means a shift towards the nation’s domestic welfare needs as well asglobal economic competitiveness. The engineering research programs at MSU have a discipline-based focus in various sub-specialties in civil, electrical and industrial engineering. However,increasing attention is being paid to cross-discipline studies. Specifically, we are

convergence of several keytechnologies. Essentially, through the use of networked embedded controllers (known as ambientintelligence) and complex sensors and actuators (i.e. sensor networks) one is able to createintelligent infrastructure systems that have the potential to change almost every aspect ofhumankind’s interaction with the environment.The understanding of the theory and operation of networked embedded controllers and theirinteraction with sensors and actuators will be one of the required skills needed to deal with theseemerging technology applications. This paper will present details about a two course sequencethat is designed for students at the two-year college level in the second year of an ElectronicSystems Engineering Technology AS
generic knowledge map related to the use ofconstraint-based CAD tools. These two sets of results comprised the initial elements used todefine expertise in the use of constraint-based CAD tools based on these five participants. Thediscussion presented in this article provides an initial look at an approach to creating geometrywith constraint-based CAD tools, as well as specific topics to be included in a curriculum thatincludes constraint-based CAD tools. These conclusions also suggest specific potential teachingand assessment methodologies.Intr oductionThe engineering design graphics curriculum is at a crossroads.

retention of process details, and provide an opportunity for a student to role-play, as a practicing engineer. A formal trip report is required and comprised of questionsregarding the process technology and products manufactured at the facility. A key question oneach trip report states, “What resources, i.e., information and people, would you request if youwere a new engineer at this company?” In class, this question sparks discussion and to provides alink between the student’s pre-professional experience and their future in the real world. Thefeedback from the students has been overwhelmingly positive. Assessment of student learningand basic knowledge is evidenced by the significant improvement in quality of the classdiscussions and the technical

Excel.IntroductionIn the University of Kentucky chemical engineering curriculum, students are required totake a course in computer programming prior to taking their first “core” chemicalengineering course. Subsequent to that course, it is possible that a student will never to berequired to write a complete program from “scratch” again. This makes some sense inchemical engineering and other disciplines where greater than 90% of practitioners neverprogram in a high-level language.1Computer programming concepts in some form are still required according toAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) criteria.2 While mostcurricula still require high-level languages such as C, C++, and Visual Basic,3 anincreasing number of programs are choosing to
