3257 EVOLUTION OF AN INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING CURRICULUM John E. Shea, Thomas M. West Oregon State UniversityIntroduction At the beginning of this decade, the structure of engineering curricula at most colleges anduniversities had existed since the early 1950’s, and reflected an emphasis on a solid foundation inmath, science, and engineering science as expressed in the Grinter Report of 19551. Therequirements for accreditation by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology(ABET) reinforced this traditional structure of the

confusing instructional examples used in the videos andlack a clear explanation of the underlying knowledge, which is therefore able to compromise thelearning experiences and the education of the robotics workforce.IntroductionLearning robotics technology is challenging due to the multidisciplinary nature of the subject,which involves mathematics, electronics, software, mechanical engineering, and materialsscience. One effective way in enhancing the learning is through the use of videos. Studies showthat having students watch rich types of robotics instructional videos is helpful to enhance thelearning outcome in robotics technology related classes 1,2 . The use of videos is especiallyinteresting and important for the flipped classroom teaching

Comparing individuals’ weights of the values with how those individualsbelieved the other groups would weight the values shows that there were differences inapproximately one half of the cases.Information obtained from the survey showed that it is likely that there will

Double-sided Silicon Wafer Surface Protection Method for PhotolithographyProcess.Rebecca Horak, Olabode Ajayi, Puteri Megat-Hamari, Bhushan DharmadhikarAbstract:The photolithography process of a double-sided polished (DSP) wafer has always been achallenging task. This work is to investigate an efficient method of DSP surface preparation toprotect it from damage during the photoresist spinning, soft and hard bake, and etchingprocesses. Specifically, during the photoresist spinning, suction from the chuck of the photoresistspinner which holds the DSP in position often damages the reverse side of the polished surface.If the surface and pattern feature on the reverse side is not preserved correctly, it always leads tograssing and other

Before joining MSU Mankato, Dr. Kim was a Visiting Assistant Professor in the School of Engineering at Purdue University, teaching courses in the thermal fluid sciences, and conducting research in nanotechnol- ogy. His research expertise and interests lie in the controlled synthesis of CNTs for thermal and biological applications. While at Purdue, he was actively involved in research sponsored by DARPA (Defense Ad- vanced Research Projects Agency) in the development of carbon nanotube (CNT) enhanced wicks for vapor chambers (Thermal Ground Plane Program), and in enhancement of thermal interfaces using CNTs (Nano Thermal Interface Program). Currently, his research activities are concentrated in the area of engineering
