The Final Report ofthe Goals Committee on Engineering Education, written in 1968, contained a discussion of theimportance of lifelong learning.1 In 1978 the theme of the ASEE Annual Conference was“Career Management – Lifelong Learning.” Over the years there have been a number of studiesto investigate the types of activities involved in lifelong learning, their frequency of use, the Page 6.211.1types of support systems required for

An important feature is that students admitted to the Programlive together in an incubator-like residence hall where they can freely exchange ideas with like-minded students. Living and learning together, these students are provided with a uniqueopportunity to interact with their fellow CEOs. This environment has the potential to impact theway the CEOs think about their careers, their destinies, and their ability to start businesses rightout of school.1.

There is no reason, however, for not having activity models with stated learningobjectives, whether you are planning courses, projects, or internships.

The program is based on research projects that are tailoredto fit the time frame of the students and to give them a very meaningful experience duringthis period. The topics of the projects have ranged from purely experimental studies tohighly sophisticated theoretical problems in a variety of chemical engineeringapplications.The option has become a popular one among the most advanced students in the programand they feel that the opportunity of being involved in research, at very early stages oftheir careers, is very useful to complement the academic activities

In 1964,Smith1 reported that there were at least 84 careers (mostly in the Science, Technology,Engineering and Math (STEM) fields) for which spatial visualization skills play an importantrole. Given the explosion of “new” technical careers since 1964, it is likely that this number ismuch higher today. Others have examined the role of spatial skills in career success.

The demographics of the particular student population and theirimmediate careers suggested that most students would not pursue graduate studies in computerengineering, nor would they seek employment related to design and manufacture of IntegratedCircuit components. As a result, a much broader and deeper study of modern digital designmethodologies has not been a necessity. The informal feedback received from recent graduates inthe industry has validated the adopted approaches while those pursuing graduate studies appreciatethe depth of the curriculum as well.At undergraduate level, digital designs described in HDL can start at two main different abstractionlevels: at the schematic level, or at the
