However, as projects become more complex and theuncertainty associated with technical aspects of them increases, the risks related to not only thoseprojects but also the environment have to be considered from a holistic or systemic perspective. Inthis dynamic environment, it is important for engineers and engineering managers to understandvarious aspects of risk management such as risk identification, risk tracking, risk impactassessment, risk prioritization and risk mitigation planning, implementation and progressmonitoring.In this paper, the authors review all the existing courses in their Engineering Management (EM)program and analyze the current offerings of

It begins with the idea/concept process.At brainstorming sessions with private industry, faculty, and beginning capstone students, newideas for products and systems are identified for development. Student teams select ideas thathave strong industry support, and through two semesters of planning and implementationtransform them into fully functional prototypes.

Recent events such as the Katrina flooding in New Orleans andthe earthquake relief efforts in Haiti have underscored the importance of local regions becomingself-sufficient (at least for a few days) and have highlighted the incredible costs of flying in largequantities of goods (e.g., bottled water) to a hard-hit region.Most communities, however, do have considerable local manufacturing capacity.
