In addition to thementorship in technical areas, the professor also mentors the student in leadership skills, workand personal ethics, and communication skills that are needed in the industrial workplace. Thestudent is also assigned a mentor from GE Transportation. The mentor assigns the projects to thestudent including the specific tasks to be completed and directly interacts with the student forday to day activities on all projects. This track requires that the student work on these industrialprojects half time during the school year and full time during the summer. Program consists of12 courses (36 credits) to be completed over a two year period.The graduate work-study under

With the e-Learning system, student groupscan meet and work anytime. Team members are no longer required to physically meet in a room tocomplete their assignments greatly reducing time required.Engineering ethics was incorporated into ED I and ED II in 2003. Students now survey the ethicalaspect of their design project to insure their designs are ethical. They also pay special attention tothe ethnicity of their design in their final reports for it affects receptivity of their designs in specificcultures(7).4. Present

Each group is required to produce a learned, 20-page, single-space, coherent policypaper that considers the scientific, technological, social, political, economic, legal, safety,environmental and ethical aspects of the issue. Each group must orally defend their position vis-à-vis other positions arrived at by other groups in a press conference type setting. Invited lecturesby local and national experts, as well as, other experts from across the faculty add realism to thecourse since they often express contradictory views.

I selected these videos because theoriginal judges thought these videos best responded to the challenge of the Milking the RhinoInnovation Showcase.

The opportunity will be in many formssuch as ensuring that only bona-fide engineers will be allowed to practice; that continuousprofessional development is actively pursued and that a code of ethics is strictly applied. Thechallenge will be institutional, from an engineering society to a regulatory body for engineeringpractice.

Who benefits from higher education,the individual or the society? If the emphasis is on individual benefits, should universitiestry to turn that around? What is the pay back expected of a university graduate to thesociety which funded his or her education? Who should fund research? Are public-privatepartnerships inevitably tainted? Should private donations, complete with limitations andconditions, increase or decrease? Engineering educators are centrally involved in thesedeliberations, on both a local and a global scale.

It was strongly recommended that design be a consideration in teachingthroughout a four year education, but it was noted that few universities actually give credit forconsecutive design courses through a four year education. Whatever the placement of the course(most are senior two semester courses) the consensus was that one needs to cover hard skills(project management, resource mining, and constraints), soft skills (technical communication,and team dynamics) and concept coverage (ethics, safety, intellectual property.) Design shouldprovide the integration of theory and practice, provide skills for employment, and be done insuch a manner as to over satisfy ABET minimum requirements. The design experience must
