. Specifically, thewords used in the CI are not translated in the best connotation, since Arabic words arecompound, i.e. one word can have more than one meaning. These findings were incorporatedinto our study’s research design, which is explained in the following section.Research DesignStatics is a pivotal course for engineering students especially in the areas of civil and mechanicalengineering. Previous work demonstrated the presence of naive conceptions (misconceptions)on statics concepts among mechanical and civil senior engineering students.10, 11 CATS has beendesigned to detect errors associated with incorrect concepts necessary for Statics. Thedevelopment of CATS began with the identification of central Statics concepts based on ananalysis of

Lastly, we present somesuggestions for the new hire and explain the rationale for these guidelines.Industry-Academic DifferencesBefore we review the differences between the industry and academic environments, lets considerwhat the Ph.D. in industry has been doing. Many have been involved in technology or advanceddevelopment, and some with revenue product design. The first area contains a far greaterresearch component and the latter a significant application component. But the big question formost academics is: why would a successful professional want to leave industry? Generally, thesuccessful Ph.D. looks at the tradeoff between 1) salary, and 2) research flexibility and/or lessstress. Since

While ME 250 is an important course for developing engineering identity, ME 347actually develops the mechanical engineering design identity due to the open-ended nature of theproject and considerations of manufacturability and practicality. ME 347 builds upon the CADskills learned in ME 250 and incorporates more detailed geometric modeling with advancedmates and engineering drawings. Generally, about 100 students enroll in this course persemester, with 2 hours of lecture and 2 hours of lab per week.

efficient the design.In recent years, there is a constantly growing need for manufacturing engineers possessing bothdesign and manufacturing knowledge [1,2,3]. Shortages of design expertise and manufacturingexperience often result in an unacceptable level of assemblability and manufacturability ofproduct design [6,7]. Unfortunately, best manufacturing practices and design expertise are hardto disseminate to designers. In order to effectively disseminate and reuse this valuableknowledge, design and manufacturing departments need quantitative feedback mechanisms toimprove communication between these two departments. Design for assembly (DFA) provides aquantitative method for evaluating the cost and assemblability of the design during the designstage

that our students could be better prepared for future success.This enabled serious deliberation to occur through first an ad-hoc committee, followed by thenormal curriculum committee, and subsequently approved according to normal departmentprotocol. The process also ensured that all EM graduates would receive more than the minimumhours in engineering and design credit. The revised core eliminated the potential for an ABETevaluator to question the minimum requirements. Courses that were added to the core clearlyincluded engineering content.
