Having a changing environment, withvarious globalization scenarios playing out, with free trade and multilateral social andeconomic agreements, the curriculum of engineering has undergone significant changes. Thisevolution has led to the concept of Global Engineering, which was first introduced in theIndustrial Engineering program at Northern Illinois University, which emphasizes thedevelopment of globally-focused engineering education [8].Developing a global engineering practice entails addressing issues from a much widerperspective. In order to achieve this, it becomes crucial to integrate and

Due to the training and specialization of thedifferent professions (scientists, physicians, engineers, business individuals), there tends to be a“silo effect” where each professional has an immense amount of knowledge and expertise withinhis/her own area, but has difficulty crossing disciplines to understand and function successfullywithin a team format.Entrepreneurship results in the creation of economic value by utilization of research andtechnical information and knowledge in inter-disciplinary projects

This ability to get to know this student, from their upbringing to their roommates tohow they engage with other members of their support network, creates deeper connection andunderstanding regarding their experiences and situations.

CurriculumAbout four years ago, the College of Engineering and Science at Louisiana Tech Universitybegan developing an innovative freshman engineering curriculum. The cornerstone of this newcurriculum is the creation of Engineering Problem Solving courses and the integration of thesenew courses with Engineering Mathematics courses and Science courses. The purpose of theintegration is to provide experience with the engineering use of the skills being learned in mathand science. The typical freshman year consists of three academic quarters. During each ofthese three quarters, an Engineering Mathematics course (three semester credit hours or SCH) istaught along with an Engineering Problem Solving course (two SCH).
