The programs evolved from an early effort calledAssistive Device Venture that was created in 1995 by the first author, then Technical Director ofthe Rancho Rehabilitation Engineering Program, to involve youth from Rancho Los AmigosMedical Center injured in gang-related violence in a Rehabilitation Engineering DesignExperience. The concept was that some of these young men and women might be inspired by aconstructive, real-world challenge to develop technology for someone with even greater physicalchallenges than themselves. Assistive Design Venture comprised a team of six students recruitedfrom a

) consists of three-week longlaboratory-based modules in each of our four disciplines. We are committed to includingsignificant content in these modules as well as demonstrating to the students the extent to whichall engineering disciplines overlap. The multidisciplinary aspects of our program are crucial tothe type of education that we provide and are one of the reasons that we maintain a commoncurriculum for all of our students during their first year. At the end of their first year we hope tohave given them not only a sound background in the fundamentals of mathematics and science,but also a solid appreciation of the skills that are required for engineering practice.One of the most fundamenta skills required in today’s high-technology workplace

developed. Twenty yearsago, separate laboratory space existed for both the digital logic and electronics courses in ourdepartment. At that time, digital logic was only required for sophomore-level ElectricalEngineers. For the junior-level electronics lab, class size dictated that the lab be taught in twosections. As technology advanced, the digital lab assignments become more complex, whichrequired time outside the normal class period. In addition, our Computer Science departmentchose to make the digital lab a required part of their program, effectively doubling class size.During the same period, the number of Electrical Engineering students declined slightly, whichreduced the size of the electronics lab. Instead of two full sections of this lab

To improve enrollment ingraduate degree programs, it is important to understand what factors affect students’ interest inengineering graduate school and research, including previous research experiences. This paperaims to examine undergraduate students’ socialization into research to further understand thesefactors and promote enrollment in graduate school and research careers. As researchers aim to encourage more participation in engineering graduate schools andthe development of skilled engineers, it is important to showcase our current understanding of theclimate and experiences of engineering graduate school.

Database management, by its own nature, is considered a multidisciplinary subject. It isnot surprising that this topic remains among the most sought-after and popular subjects taken bystudents in engineering, science, business and technology disciplines. At most universities, bothtechnical and non-technical graduate and undergraduate programs require at least one database course.Usually, such a course introduces the concepts of relational database design, modeling, implementationand administration.

In today's high technology environment, introducing scientific and engineering concepts early ina student's educational experience is critical in fostering students' interest in technology. At the same time, an“information revolution” has occurred which requires educators of all levels and disciplines to constantlyupgrade their skills.
