Why should students come to class?We study a very simple way to improve the value proposition for attending class in an age ofubiquitous information availability on the internet. Rather than being a source of information, aclassroom is conceptualized instead as a social nexus in which valuable social interactions occurbetween professor and students, as well as student-to-student. We reinforce the social value ofthe classroom experience via small changes that are practical to implement in existing courses,improve social immediacy between instructor and students, reinforce course outcomes andobjectives, save instructor time, and generally improve the perceived value of attending class.The value of

These approaches can be applied to many similarengineering management programs.IntroductionConstruction has become a profession from the traditional civil engineering.

When I replied in the affirmative, she asked me toconvey her greetings to all of you. I should explain that she is no longer able to attend in person, havingpassed away in 1952 at the age of eighty.

The degreeawarded is a Master of Nuclear Engineering (MNE). This differs from the Master of Science thesis work whichis research oriented. Around 1983, an industry-funded MNE Traineeship Program was initiated to both providefinancial support for the MNE graduate students and to enhance the relevance and quality of the engineeringprojects.
