Further, a computational fluid dynamic modeling (CFX AEA Technologies,Pittsburgh, PA) is first introduced in the Transport Phenomena course, and they are trained toanalyze RTD in the Chemical Reaction Design Course. The project stages were: a) determine the rate law and the rate kinetic parameters: To minimize the time spent ondetermining the exact reaction mechanism, they were suggested to use a Hougan-Watson (H-W)kinetic model if the elementary reaction assumption is determined to be invalid [2].

Modest-sized graduate programs face the difficulty of achievingsufficient enrollments in graduate courses, further limiting course availability for graduate stu-dents. Attracting and retaining graduate students becomes challenging under such circumstances.However, graduate students form the backbone of any successful research program. The experi-ment presented in this paper was conducted to study the feasibility of forming teaching alliancesfocused in electrical engineering. These alliances allow several programs to pool their resources. I. IntroductionResources for higher education have become scarce in recent years due to decreased

organizationalflexibility and a flattening of the organizational structure. The cornerstones, research and teaching, of the faculty culture are dominated byindividuals, not teams. The nature of higher education is to place emphasis on theaccomplishments of the isolated individual rather than on team efforts. The emergence of teamsin the academy will cause an increase in the administrative responsibility of faculty, aredistribution in the power and authority of faculty members and a reprioritization of work loadand philosophy about teams. Engineering faculty members are often uncomfortable with the collaborative nature ofteamwork. Indeed, the personality traits that characterize some engineering faculty interfereswith their ability to be effective

Digital circuit design, requiring no prerequisites orcomplicated math, is an excellent vehicle to accomplish that mission. By involving the studentsin hands-on activities that paralleled topics presented, students started to develop anunderstanding of the underlying principles behind digital circuits. Students left campempowered to face today’s world of technology with confidence rather than with intimidation.References1. Carroll, C. R

The main topic, thermodynamics, related very heavily toher engineering thermodynamics class concepts. Concepts such as thermodynamic efficiency, theRankine cycle, ideal vs real Rankine cycle, mass and volumetric flow rates, rates of heat transfer,work, and power were essential to the OTEC and solar pond technologies, and to even begin thisresearch she needed an established recall of these concepts. Within another important topic, fluidmechanics, she needed to recall fluid flow inefficiencies such as pipe friction head loss, theDarcy-Weisbach equation, Moody diagram, and more. Heat
