MIPS accelerates the commercializationof new technology by jointly funding commercially directed collaborative research anddevelopment projects between USM faculty and company researchers. Faculty,postdoctoral fellows and graduate students have the opportunity to perform research thatdirectly leads to commercialization of new products. Companies are able to access expertuniversity faculty and state of the art facilities to conduct cost effective research anddevelopment. They also benefit from access to a vibrant student labor pool. MIPSprojects have covered a wide range of technologies in engineering, computer, physicaland life sciences. Since 1987, MIPS has provided matching funds for more than 445projects worth a total value of $120

One reasonthat lecture has gained such a bad reputation among many in the educational community is theidea of providing a “learning-centered” approach in the classroom. In 1995

The objective of the chemistry activities in the vacuumlaboratory are to familiarize students with practical and real-life applications of the chemistrythey learn in a pure science class in industrial type settings and to peak their interest in scienceand technology career paths. An overview of the chemistry demonstrations and experimentsusing the vacuum technology equipment will be provided in addition to the science studentimpressions to these alternative laboratories.BackgroundThere is no need to belabor the issue of decreasing enrollments in college and universitymathematics, technology, science and engineering programs.

Abstract: The course of Microcomputer Systems Technology has been one of the core courses in the Computer Engineering Technology curriculum (Bachelor of Technology in CET) at the New York City College of Technology of the City University of New York. The Intel microprocessor in PC based computer was the chosen hardware in this course. The assembly and C++ languages were crucial tools in the study of microprocessor organization. We currently focused mainly on the topic of PC computer parallel interface technology. However, we did not pay particular attention to the integration of current programmable peripheral components, such as USB (universal serial bus) based input

This reflects the facts provided by the National ScienceFoundation showing 35% of the undergraduates in science and math majors are women,while only 10% are in engineering.

Awareness of these issues is critical to a successfulinstructional design and a supportive learning environment. Understanding humanconsiderations heightens understanding of learner attitude À how, for example, a specificmedium affects oneÀs ability to learn and the degree of acceptance or resistance one invests inthe process. Sadly, the importance of such human elements is often minimized or ignored. Thequality of decisions improves dramatically when human elements are considered, andconsequently enhances the learning process.I. IntroductionFor
