for Engineering Education, 2011 Keeping the Conversation Alive: Maintaining Students' Research Skills Throughout Their College CareersAbstractAt Drexel University the library teaches engineering students information research skills in theirfirst and senior years. These students would benefit from a refresher in their middle college yearsto enhance their abilities in using library databases. Such an opportunity exists in the junior yearwhen all engineering students are required to take “Technology in Historical Perspective” (HIST285) a course offered by the Department of History and Politics in the College of Arts andSciences.

Thediscipline is often grouped with Industrial Engineering, Systems Engineering, or Management ofTechnology. Although very few EM definitions exist, current discipline trends are representedby the following:  Engineering Management is the art and science of planning, organizing, allocating resources, and directing and controlling activities which have a technological component.2  Engineering Management is
