One focused on the challengeof conserving, filtering, and reusing water in extreme environments, and the other challengedstudents to learn about and design multiple remote sensing technologies, and then to use thosetechnologies to explore a model “mystery moon.” Each unit consists of eight one-hour,sequenced activities. Throughout each unit, youth are introduced to engineering practices andhabits of mind through an Engineering Design Process (EDP), which they use as a guide whileworking in small groups to design a solution to an engineering challenge. The EDP begins withidentifying a problem that needs to be solved and investigating what has already been done.Next, engineers imagine different

We’ve both informally and formally entered the K-12 classroom over the years, perhapsby invitation on career day or as a precursor to the local science fair. Recently, we’ve evenstarted to carve out very enticing fast-track-to-technical-career middle school and high schoolcurricula in the form of efforts such as Project Lead the Way6.

The case-study selected to illustrate this conceptfocuses on technical calculations, analysis, improvement, scaling-up and development of mixingprocesses and equipment. The product enables chemical and process engineers to visualize mixingprocesses and to calculate process parameters for single- and two- phase systems, powerconsumption and circulation rates. The module is developed with two goals in mind: beinteractive to keep the students attention while demonstrating important design concepts, and beflexible

Matlab as the main programming languageBy taking a “teach-a-language” approach using Matlab, we can teach general-purpose languageskills and concepts and take advantage of its computational/graphical capabilities. This will giveus the ability to discuss more advanced engineering/mathematical problems in just a short periodof time, which cannot be accomplished with general-purpose programming languages. Weshould keep in mind that the main reason behind offering a programming course for engineeringstudents is to help them with their future scientific computational tasks. We believe that Matlabcan be used to serve this purpose. The fact that the majority of engineering jobs (excludingcomputer engineering which is not part of our discussion) do not

Although each of the applications can be used by itself, but the real advantagesoccur when these tools are used together, allowing them to be used as integrated tools for adesign full-cycle. A few year ago, MET program started to offer Advanced Computer-Aidedwith the idea of concurrent engineering in mind.

An introductory mind-changing lecture is offered with the consideration of “turnkey polishing” in the final course score.

changing global economy and workforce,engineering students need to be prepared to work on complex problems within multidisciplinaryteams and design solutions with diverse social and ethical considerations in mind. To addressthis need, the Whiting School of Engineering at Johns Hopkins University initiated aMultidisciplinary Design Program. Currently, the program offers a two-semester sequence whereteams of multidisciplinary engineering students are engaged in design challenges with projectpartners from medicine, industry, or the social sector. Students are mentored through a human-centered design process to (1) conduct technical, contextual, and user research, (2) focus thechallenge, (3) ideate, and (4) prototype and test their solutions.

They will need to  keep in mind ​who t​ hey are designing for; it is not for themselves! Once complete, students will present their projects in an engineering  exhibit, and evaluate each other’s solutions. Looking for more inspiration?​ You can prompt your students to design something more specific.

BackgroundI had been a practicing engineer for four years when I first started teaching as an adjunct at theUniversity of Utah. The real struggle of applying what I learned in school to actual design problems,and how to navigate life in a structural design office was fresh on my mind. It was rough; notsomething I wanted to ever repeat. I was determined to prepare my students for these realities betterthan I had been, but how?As I pondered this question, I kept coming back to project-based instruction. While I did not knowit by this name back then, I figured if I do projects for my job, maybe that was a good way to teachstudents. Although imperfect, I began to see it working. My students left school knowing how todesign structures; the way they get

Further, if the instructors would help students see that certainstrategies tend to be successful in approaching certain types of problems, the students mightbecome more adept at interdisciplinary problem solving. If the students could match cues aboutthe nature of a problem or the nature of its solution with a set of often useful skills, theirapproaches should be more effective than the random trial-and-error approach so often seen.With these goals in mind, a number of faculty from each of the three disciplines wereinterviewed about the kinds of problems they utilized in their teaching; all were involved inteaching first-year engineering students.

Empirical StudyIntroductionIndian engineering education system is one of the colossal educational systems. As per the AllIndia Council of Technical Education (AICTE) report of 2012-13, it has 3,384 colleges admitting1.63 Million students1. The system has almost no attrition and is graduating more or less theentire intake. The study of Blom and Saeki2 shows that 64% of employers are only somewhatsatisfied or worse with the current engineering graduate skills. Earlier, NASSCOM andMcKinsey report (2005)3 had found that 75% of engineering graduates are not employable bymultinational companies. A recent report by Aspiring Mind found that there is a drop inemployability in all roles and at all locations. It has noted that the decrease in employability
