computer becomes the data acquisition system for the lab.BackgroundIn the fall of 2000, Lawrence Technological University (LTU) began requiring that all enteringfreshmen have a laptop computer. In each succeeding year, the next class rank (i.e. sophomoresin fall 2001) would be required to have a laptop. The laptops are a standard model leased by theunversity to the students and regularly upgraded. Student laptops that develop problems arefixed by the help desk or exchanged if the problem is too serious to fix quickly. They are pre-loaded with a standard set of software for each college. For example, all engineering laptops arepre-loaded with a high-end CAD program, programming language, equation solver, and officesoftware. Students who wish to use

particularlyrooted in the American psyche. This is the belief that people should be rewarded in tangibleways for exceptional performance. Such rewards are considered to be a normal part of our freeenterprise system. Given the extensive use of merit pay systems in industry and the fact thatmost engineering technology faculty come out of industry, such faculty at least understand theconcept of merit pay if not support it in an academic environment. Another rationale oftenexpressed is that by rewarding exceptional performance, we are required to evaluate faculty andthrough that evaluative process, recognize those who are doing an outstanding job. However,such a reward system also needs to be coupled with a post-tenure review system which willprovide a

Multidisciplinaryengineering education in MEMS is therefore essential for keeping pace with the needs and trendsof modern technology.There is a need for more enriching opportunities in MEMS education, but significant barriers andconstraints limit the ways in which hands-on education is accessible to a broad learning audience.Although most engineering schools and colleges are now and may continue to be organizedprimarily under traditional “compartmentalized” disciplines, innovations in pedagogy andcollaboration help spread MEMS and other contemporary technologies to widening

faced --providing students with workplace experiences. IVCC is located in a rural and primarilyagricultural district in north central Illinois. As a result of a limited industrial base, a limitednumber of engineering and technology jobs are available in the district, posing problems forstudents seeking internships and for the college seeking industry partnerships. Technical jobs,however, are readily available just outside of the college district; Chicago, Rockford andPeoria are all within 60 to 100 miles of the IVCC campus. By providing simulated world ofwork experience on the campus, MIMIC provided a solution to the technical programs'dilemma.In the first ten years of the MIMIC project, the entire process was completed in one semester

information—in order to create useful toolsand technologies. Consequently, engineering education has the objective of not only presenting thescientific principles, i.e., engineering science, but also of teaching students how to apply these toreal problems. It is not surprising, therefore, that hands-on laboratories have been an integral part ofthe engineering curriculum since its inception [1]. Their importance has been recognized by theAccreditation Board of Engineering Education (ABET) and its predecessors by creation of criteriarequiring adequate laboratory practice for students [2-6]. Unfortunately, during the last severaldecades, engineering laboratories have become highly complex and expensive, with multiplesimulation tools and computer
