advancement of technology has provided the tool to teach bothhemispheres at the same time.Bottom-Up ApproachAs mathematical derivation plays an important role in traditional engineering courses, theconventional teaching and learning methods are optimized for the left hemisphere. If we make ananalogy of engineering education as the construction process of a building, the dominantapproach is similar to laying down the bricks layer by layer from the bottom up. In the past, thisapproach achieved considerable success, and most faculty members were educated in this way.However, in the information age students are surrounded by so many distractions, and thistraditional approach becomes problematic.

This same period oftime saw significant changes in the technology infrastructure at TU in the College of Engineeringand Natural Sciences. Every classroom was equipped with a computer console and display forinstruction. All engineering departments established computer laboratories for their students inaddition to the numerous facilities available to all students.

This particular passage especially applies to those engineerwho find themselves in a position of instructing and training young and aspiring or student engineersand is one of particular weight and importance. There is another area of this ethical dilemma to ex-plore. That is the duty of the engineering firms to educate their engineers in the newly evolving sus-tainable design technology as it becomes available. Programs such as “The Leadership in Energy andEnvironmental Design” (LEED) certification are often supported by employers.

To convert a conventional face-to-face class into online instruction mode takesseveral semesters and need resources. Moreover, a huge percent of university faculties is notinterested in taking virtual classes. There are several reasons behind it such as: (1) lack ofcomputer knowledge, (2) takes long time to develop an online course, (3) need more time to giveonline assignments, maintain webpage, and answering a huge number of emails, (4) no propertraining, and (5) lack of resources.

American Society for Engineering Education’s Prism [3] magazine provides further evidenceof this trend. Most companies and organizations no longer conduct business from a regional oreven U.S. perspective, but rather from a global perspective. Because the IE field traverses boththe engineering and business world, it is particularly important that IE curricula provide studentswith this advantage.A challenge facing engineering educators is how best to take advantage of the global, flattened,technology-enabled playing field to improve engineering education, and as Friedman, and othershave proposed, enable the U.S. to retain its lead in innovation and university education andresearch.

Such an option would also draw upon other commonly offeredcourses in mechanics, materials, electronics, quality control and engineering economics. Theinvestment for the minimalist scenario is quite small The ‘process engineering’ course in this scenario should focus on product engineering andprocess engineering. The product engineering portion of this course would concentrate on partsthat would be fabricated and subsequently assembled into usable products. Parts would bedefined in some detail as to features, dimensions, tolerances, fits, finishes and the processesthrough which the material transformations are affected.
