The first of these provides a foundation in financial, human-resources, supply-chain, organizational and innovation aspects of the modern corporationthat are pertinent to the career of a new engineering employee. The second course goesinto more depth on these matters, and also touches on issues pertaining toentrepreneurship and business plans. Developing an understanding of how engineeringactivities fit into the broader social and business context is a complement to thiscurriculum initiative

department 2.The selection and evaluation of faculty by an administrator is one of the most critical tasks.The selection of faculty is most accomplished through search committees; which in turnreduces the strain on the chair. However, the evaluation of department members is a majorresponsibility of a chair. Professional development and performance counseling should bethe cornerstones of an effective faculty evaluation system3. For example, in professionaldevelopment of faculty, a chair’s objective should be collective as well as individualdevelopment by involving faculty in planning activities, by taking calculated risks and bysecuring maximum institutional support. As for performance counseling, this should be acontinuous process rather than an

Microsoft Word’s latestversion of Equation Editor is compatible with screen reading software and provides mathematicnotation in a tractable format. STEM courses rely heavily on visually-delivered information in the form of diagrams, graphs,charts, images, etc. Being able to access visual references is assumed in an engineering course, soteaching methods must be revised to deliver similar information in either a tactile, audio, oralternative method. Access plans for education technologies must be developed such as thosedescribed in Clippinger et al. [5] There have been several efforts to automatically create tactile graphics for the

Assignments include hands-on programming challengesthat are called the “triple challenge” as they all require: 1) Mathematics, with the application of numerical methods for computation and verification of correctness (via self-check, proof, math fact, or comparison with a math tool such as MATLAB or Mathematica). 2) Programming, with iterative, dynamic and recursive methods and knowledge of complexity theory. 3) Parallel Execution, with methods of shared memory scale-up, distributed memory scale- out, and finally methods of co-processing covered (GP-GPU so far, with QPU planned as an option).While the triple challenge is what students must learn to do using programming methods andpractices

Typically, graduate students (even those with teaching assistantships) lack the experience of designing educational activities, as these are usually designed by senior instructors/faculty members, whereas teaching assistants are only responsible for the implementation.

Valuable information from students’ survey will bepresented and analyzed. According to the students’ survey in our three classes, the majority ofstudents strongly agreed with that the teaching approach “the balance of theory, simulation andproject” was the best one for teaching the course “Design of Machine Elements”.1. IntroductionThe trend in engineering education is swinging from an emphasis on theory to a balance betweentheory and applied design activities [1-4]. There are certainly some gaps or differences betweenthe academic settings and the industrial settings for mechanical engineering programs

These display cases would give today’s students a realistic look at antiquetechnologies in a way that is superior to pictures and textual descriptions. The objective was toenhance the student’s understanding of the history of past technologies and how they are relatedto today’s technologies. This paper reviews the continuing efforts to promote technologicalliteracy by using a wide variety of approaches ranging from the old to new.
