Additionally, chemical engineering undergraduate students are becoming increasingly interested inapplication oriented topics such as polymers and environmental technology.

There are pros/cons of covering applications areas(such as transmission lines) before a discussion of electric and magnetic fields (bothstatic and dynamic.) There are recent textbooks that introduce transmission lines first.Because of the importance of wireless communications and antenna technology, there hasbeen discussion among engineering educators that the subject of E&M is a fundamentalarea of study for all electrical engineering and perhaps computer engineering majors.

Configuringand using such systems also required a high level of technical skill in VR technology. Most priorapproaches stressed building new VR-enabled CAD systems, while only a few focused onproviding VR interfaces for existing commercial CAD systems. As a result, most modern CADsystems, such as Pro/Engineer, AutoDesk Inventor, Solid Works, etc., still use traditional 2Dkeyboard and mouse interfaces to interact with complex 3D CAD models. Thus, to-date, thedesign community has not widely accepted using VR interfaces; VR use, so far, has been limitedto specialized research applications. This paper describes a
