beginning of time. The term “KnowledgeManagement” is an ambiguous concept for which numerous definitions have been proposed. Toprovide a starting point for the discussion, it is important to define Knowledge Managementfrom an innovation perspective. According to Dorf and Byers, Knowledge Management (KM) isthe practice of collecting, organizing and disseminating the intellectual knowledge of a firm forthe purposes of enhancing its competitive advantages2. Accordingly, universities, particularlythe colleges of engineering and technology, are being asked to modify their mission of teachingand research to include being a player in the global innovation and economic developmentprocesses. As Bordogna has noted, “Engineers are expected to foster progress
community professionals. TheApprenticeships in Science and Engineering (ASE) program is part of Saturday Academy and istargeted at the “best and brightest” high school students. The heart of the ASE program is theapprenticeship, in which a student apprentice works with one or more technical professionalmentors for eight weeks full-time during the summer. The OSU ChE Dept. has participated inthe ASE program since 1994. Integration of the microelectronics modules into these summerresearch experiences is an excellent avenue for both recruitment of top rated students intoengineering and exposure of students to technologies relevant to Oregon’s predominant industry.Web site: http://www.ogi.edu/satacad/index.html5.

Clearly, there are additional questions toconsider, but it is possible that most colleges have at least one valuable marketing opportunitythat they hadn't ever considered.Bibliography1.

about the many potential benefits resulting from afreshman-level “Introduction to Engineering” or “Introduction to Design” course.Despite these benefits, however, many institutions have been unable to add such a courseto their engineering curricula, for a variety of legitimate reasons. Penn State Universityat Harrisburg has opted to initially work toward this objective by aggressively integratingthe fundamentals of design throughout the engineering technology program curriculum.In particular, this article features ET 200, “Graphic Communications,” a course taken byall students in the Structural Design and Construction Engineering Technology Program,generally during the fall semester of their junior year.

component of engineering education is helping students understand how the informationof a given class is applied to the current technology and applications of that field. In addition, it isalso critical for students to understand the broader impacts of a product during the design,manufacturing, and useful life stages as well as how the materials are disposed of, recycled, or re-used afterwards. One method of helping students achieve this insight is through the use ofmarketing-based presentations in which groups of students present competing technologies.This paper will describe such presentations that encourage students to explore both the technicaldetails of a product as well as the economic, environmental, and societal impacts in order toconvince

Third, WPI’s extensive experience with project-based learning hasmade clear that enhanced learning typically results when students are given a meaningful “realworld” problem to solve for some external organization, rather than a problem fabricated byfaculty.
