The ability to write concisely and clearly in the workplace is critical for thegraduate’s success in winning contracts and reducing liability. As information technology advances, it isessential that engineering educators encourage students to develop and improve their communication skills,especially technical writing in the context of the current and emerging information infrastructure. In theCivil Engineering Program at the United States Coast Guard Academy (USCGA), specific performanceindicators related to technical writing and information literacy have been developed and linked to severalABET Student Outcomes.

Now, many ofthose engineers hired in the 1960s and ‘70s are approaching retirement. Since a substantialfraction of the nuclear industry’s workforce is about to retire, the demand for employees with anunderstanding of nuclear science and technology is about to grow. Nuclear

are several reasons for attracting women to engineering such as the fact that more than50% of consumers are women. If those designing the products are able to relate to the femalesection of the population, there is a better chance of selling the products. So, we need to havewomen designers. Another reason for attracting women to engineering is to employ the bestengineers and scientists in order to keep our leadership in technology. Microsoft ChiefTechnology Officer, Nathan Myhrvold, said: “There are breakthrough ideas we are waiting forsomeone to have. The smaller the number of people in industry, the fewer of those ideas we willget. That’s more in focus in our industry because growth is directly related to human talent3”. Toemploy the best

In2001 an ‘Introduction to Engineering’ module on imaging was developed at Boston Universitythrough CenSSIS.

As state legislatures have forced civil engineering programs to fit Page 11.1260.4into 120 or 128 credit hour programs, there is little room for creativity or innovation after all ofthe mandatory requirements have been met.
