The typical narrative of areport was something like “We measured the frequency response of the first circuit, and here iswhat we got.” There was little or no description of procedure, theoretical background, orcomparison of results with expectations. There were even ethical problems in some reports. Asan example, one laboratory group submitted a report on the frequency response of passivenetworks in which they substituted results of circuit simulation for the required

Theflying rocket-gliders are models which, under remote radio control, transition at the top of theirboost trajectory into gliders that attempt to make a soft landing on a designated site. Our six-student teams design, build, and fly a fully operational rocket-glider vehicle from scratch.Powered by a 3 second, 3.4 lb max thrust model rocket motor, most boost gliders are about 2 feetlong. Each boost glider has a set of control surfaces mounted with receiver-actuated servos.Flights last from 2 seconds (for an aerodynamically unstable

In addition, thecourse is intended to link knowledge and application of engineering principles to professionalethics and values, and to foster the academic and personal growth of the students. Unfortunately,the previous offerings of this course failed to deliver the desired learning experiences due to (1)the disparate nature of the content and delivery from session to session (2) the lack of continuityacross sessions (3) the absence of a common thread to bind the content of the course.In order to overcome these drawbacks and to teach engineering design and practice in the context 1-2of society, ethics, and economics, the course has been restructured by

The limited electives offered to students are usually extensions of therequired courses. As a result, undergraduates tend to get a focused civil engineering educationwithout being introduced to material on construction. Furthermore, most existing curricula donot introduce students to nontraditional topics that are important to construction – such asmultidisciplinary collaborative team assignments, technical communications, leadership, andprofessional ethics – and seem to lack continuity in the material taught thus offering education infragmented

purpose of the Freshman Seminar is many-fold. The course serves as aforum to introduce the students to critical services and activities on campus such as studentservices, co-op office, library services, academic advising, as well as a forum to provide thestudents with a great deal of perspective. The introduction to services is rather straightforward,and includes a campus wide scavenger hunt. Co-op (required at RIT) is typically introduced tothe students through a panel of upper classmen and a short talk from the co-op office director,with liberal time for questions and answers. Perspective in ISE is achieved by a lecture andgroup discussion of engineering ethics, and a few team projects that integrate topics from the restof the first year
