This applied nature of the technology programs manifests itself inlaboratory experiences which play a major role in the educational process.

8 ISSUE 2ADVANCES IN ENGINEERING EDUCATIONA Temperature Control Project that Facilitates Learningof Difficult Concepts in Control Theory Project-Based-Learning, or PBL, has been broadly adopted by the engineering education commu-nity [2-8] as an effective instructional approach. Cohesive PBL pedagogy brings many advantages: itmotivates students, offers student-centered learning [7], makes meaningful connections to the realworld [8], and facilitates communication among students [9]. Specific to control theory teaching,PBL has been utilized to help students to learn about function blocks in a feedback control system[10-12] and to design advanced controllers [13-17]. Recognizing teaching/learning benefits throughPBL, the author developed a

toolsto better assist our first-year students as they navigate the many potential discipline options inengineering. Based on our work, we suggest that those teaching in the first year frequentlydiscuss major selection and the different engineering majors with their students either formallyor informally. Since it is not possible to include all possible majors in laboratory experiences,information about the majors may need to be addressed through other means such asassignments, student presentations, and guest-speakers. We know that students change theirintended major so helping them navigate that process is essential for their success. This can bedone in a variety of ways, but we suggest polling the students throughout the term and dedicatingtime

Examples include: statics, dynamics, mechanics of materials, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and heat transfer.  Critical areas from the manufacturing knowledge base that all mechanical engineering education programs should strongly consider including in their curricula are: the impact of processing on materials, especially from the vantage point of materials selection, basic manufacturing processes (with laboratory), metrology with linkages to geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), and statistical quality control.  When teaching product design, ensure that principles of simultaneous product and process design are emphasized
