fundamentals of engineering design to freshmanengineering students. The paper also presented a description of a design project that wasconducted by two-year engineering technology students in their introductory engineeringgraphics/CAD course. Lastly, the paper described the 18 credit-hour entrepreneurshipminor. The Engineering Entrepreneurship Minor (E-SHIP) is an interdisciplinary minoropen to all students. However, the entrepreneurship classes are designed in such a waythat engineering students will learn basic business principles and business students willlearn the basic engineering design process. Many engineering students are pursuing thisminor to complement their baccalaureate engineering degrees.Bibliography 1. Anwar, S., and

be reconstructed from the compressed file without error. The algorithms selected forthis task utilize recent advances in wavelet theory, especially integer wavelet transforms,and coding theory to maximize the compression ratio. An uncompressed color or black-and-white image in bit map (BMP) or tagged image file format (TIFF) is transformed intoa text file consisting of a matrix of pixel values. This text file is filtered (transformed)using various integer wavelet transforms. The integer wavelet transforms are applied asmany times as needed. This process reduces the redundancy of the original picture asmuch as possible. The integer wavelet transforms such as (1,1), (2,2), (2,4), (2+2,2),(3,1), (4,2), (4,4), (6,2), 9-7, D4, S+P are used in the

This leads to the concepts of nominal and effective interest rate. Again, Excel’sfinancial analysis tools were used to build the simulation shown in Table 3. This shows therelationship between nominal interest rate, effective rate per compounding period (CP), andeffective annual rate. On changing the value(s) of nominal rate and/or compounding frequency,the resulting effective rates are shown automatically by the computer

Each student may require a different style combination: the goalis to choose the mentoring style(s) that will help the student stay in the zone of their optimalperformance. Although it is most desirable to use the resonant styles, there may be times

since the mid 1960’s and has graduated severalstudents every year since its inception. The program uses contributions from sponsoringcompanies (primarily electrical utilities, consultants, manufacturers, and suppliers) to fund atypical pool of 5 to 7 graduate students for up to 3 semesters of study each. This has resulted in agraduation rate of an average of about 6 students per calendar year, plus others who are self-supporting or who are supported by research programs. Perhaps as many as 8-12 graduatestudents finish in the electric power area in a typical year.
