Kedrowicz is the Director of the CLEAR (Communication, Leadership, Ethics, And Research) Program at the University of Utah, a collaboration between the College of Humanities and College of Engineering. The program was developed in 2003 through a grant from the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, with the goal of integrating communication (speaking and writing), teamwork, and ethics into the curriculum of every department in the College of Engineering. Kedrowicz has been the Direc- tor of the program since its inception and has developed a

The United States still leads theworld in terms of having a complete vertically integrated infrastructure supportingbusiness development. The elements of this infrastructure include a supportive culture forentrepreneurship, small business financing vehicles, intellectual property protectionand a supportive business tax and legislative structure. Yet with all this support, not manyuniversities provide entrepreneurship education to undergraduates within their curricula.Some universities that do include Lehigh University, the University

One goal stated by theBME program at Boston University1 and echoed by other BME programs across the country,“…[is to provide] students with the skills necessary to solve problems that impact a wide rangeof economic, environmental, ethical, legal, and social issues.” The minimum skill set required tomeet such a goal consists of:• Critical thinking• Team work• Interpersonal skills• Group decision-making• Analytic and Problem-solving mechanisms• Oral and written communication (including selling ideas, and formulating and presenting an argument).In addition to providing courses

This paper will provide a teachingmodel for small and large class sizes and a laboratory course design strategy that motivatesstudents to apply their lower-order thinking skills, increase their confidence in transferring skillsto new applications, and realize the theory from their curriculum in real-world applications.Since Materials is a fundamental ME knowledge our program identified, we choose to emphasizeAmerican Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards in our laboratory course. Aftercompleting the four-week laboratory module, students will gain hands-on experience conductingmaterial property measurements by following standard procedures.

The first two courses (ENGR 2431: DC Circuits and ENGR 2531: AC Circuits)primarily cover topics that non-majors are required to know for the FE exam. The final 6-weekcourse (ENGR 3431: Electromechanical Systems) includes advanced topics not typically taughtin an introductory circuits course, such as LabView programming, digital logic, computercommunications, sensors, and motors. To provide a more practical and hands-on approach to thestructure of ENGR 3431 a robotics project was implemented in the Spring 2011 semester. Thispaper focuses primarily on
