The focus of the Electrical Engineering Technology program the author is a facultymember off is on applications. As a result, the EET program commits to offering a learningenvironment where equipment students are likely to encounter in industry is utilized. As a result,the labs are outfitted with the following industrial equipment: • Resistive load bank adjustable in 72 steps. • Reactive load bank (capacitive) in 12 steps. • DC machine driven via a variable speed drive or synchronous or induction motor. • Synchronous machine driven by variable speed drive or DC motor. • Induction machine driven

However, the inherent complexity and variability presentwithin economic evaluation models often limits practical use for assessment of theeconomic impact of field implementations as well as within Total Quality Management(TQM) curriculums. In response to the limitations of traditional accounting andengineering economics methods, Engineering Technology faculty at IUPUI and otherPurdue regional campuses have created an Excel-based spreadsheet model for evaluation ofthe economic impact of quality improvement projects throughout the implementation cycle.Although this tool was specifically developed for use within healthcare, we have found thismethodology to be invaluable for supporting project initiation and assessment of
