these traditional graphics courses have a strongbias towards Mechanical Engineering which often resulted in incomplete training for thegraduates1.In the last decade, many schools have integrated the feature-based, parametric solid modelingtechnology into the course curriculum. To encourage the integration, several solid modelingpackages, such as ProEngineer, SolidWorks, CATIA, and UniGraphics, are academically priced.Most books reacted to this technology by adding a chapter or two on this new technology.

Since these traits are not optional in theworkplace, they are also strictly reinforced in this class in an attempt to introduce the students tothe rigors of being an engineer or construction manager. Since these skills are difficult toestablish on the first day of work, starting them off as first-year students is thought to be goodpreparation for their eventual careers.Reading the chapter of the week before coming to

This leads to a discussion of what information is availablefrom the analytical solution versus what is available from the numerical solution, theadvantages of an analytical solution, and under what circumstances one would seek anumerical solution. Finally, it leads to a point that is seldom appreciated when the threemain topics of this course are taught in a non-integrated manner - that the analyticalsolution of a simpler case can serve as a limiting case check of the numerical solution ofa more complex case. As simulations become more and more complex, students areencouraged to find ways to check their simulation results with

In thecurrent version, there is greater focus on what specific questions need to fully understand andcomprehend the scope and nature of an engineering problem. It is a common element of mosthigh school science curriculums to focus the students on providing detailed solutions to aclearly defined problem.

The fall 2007 EDWstudents were emailed the survey, and response rates were much lower than in the other twocourses. Therefore, few differences due to gender, EWB participation, or other factors wereevident. The results from this study are preliminary in nature due to the small number of surveyrespondents.

In the engineering world of the future, a sound understanding of thetheoretical and practical sides of engineering ethics will be as necessary to the proper educationof engineers as a knowledge of differential equations is today, if not more so”.4Robin Tatu in her article “Knowledge Isn’t Enough” takes the famous quote from the Greekinventor Archimedes “Give me a place to stand and I will move the Earth” and argues that “thepotential to wield such power is
