FPGA to implement the FIFO.The Aerospace Corporation clinic team designed a 622 Mb/s BERT. The clinic team firstdeveloped a low-speed proof of concept. The method of building a full-speed product wasinitially unclear and the clinic team commissioned a chip from the freshmen to operate atintermediate speed as a further proof of concept. In the meantime, the clinic team has exploredusing a Virtex II FPGA. The chip was simulated and verified with Electric and was tested to befully operational using the chip tester. It has been delivered to the clinic team.The projects have involved a combination of effort from the freshmen, the lab assistant, clinicteams, and the advisor. The clinic teams act as a client, providing specifications and

restructuring National Research Council, NRC, in 1990.2 Chemical Engineering Education The courses for the chemical engineering have fundamentally changed in many universitiessince early 1900’s. This indicates that the chemical engineering education has been evolvingduring this period. Arthur Little stressed the concept of “unit operation” in 1915. This concepttook hold and became the central educational theme for a decade1. During 1935-1945 appliedthermodynamics and process control courses were added. Applied chemical kinetics and processdesign came to era between 1945-1955. After 1955, instead of unit operations, more emphasiswas given to engineering sciences such as momentum, mass and energy transfer. Professor OlafHougen shifted the chemical

The students were asked toanalyze the effects of the following changes on a section of the I-70 network:1. An increase in the free-flow speed from 65 to 70 mph on two major links on I-70 (82-84 and 89-87). This change can show the effects of a possible change in the speed limitsuch as what happened when the national speed limit law was repealed in the mid 1990’s.2. A change in the grade from 0% to 8% on the same links on I-70. This changeexamines the
