the firstsemester of the freshmen year, students learn basic engineering skills such as problem solvingand teamwork fundamentals through the centralized theme of engineering measurements. This isfollowed in the second semester by intense study of engineering design through reverseengineering (or “dissection”) and competitive assessment of consumer products. “Soft” topicsincluded in this semester are engineering ethics and intellectual property, both of whichcomplement the course themes.In the sophomore year, the attempt is made to integrate design and communication (written andoral) by serving the dual purpose of introducing students to formalized engineering designtechniques and providing them with the necessary foundation for their careers

While the focus of the class is on pedagogy, the goal is forstudents to find the experience useful regardless of whether they are going into academia,industry, a research laboratory, or other career pursuits. In addition to issues dealing withteaching engineering, sessions are organized for career planning, success in both academia andindustry, ethics, and basic counseling and mentoring skills. This paper is a study of theeffectiveness of the Teaching Practicum experience. Survey responses are analyzed from nearly100 Ph.D. alumni for the period from the summer of 1996 to the spring of 2009.

Anexposure to RC guidelines and its implementation can help chemical engineering students tobecome more marketable and get a head start with their careers.It is important to prepare chemical engineering graduates who will grow to become goodcorporate citizens. Recent industrial disasters (such as Deepwater Horizon spill, Imperial SugarRefinery explosion, Alumia plant accident in Hungary, etc.) have all pointed to a breach in RCand the possibility of engineering personnel’s involvement in making the wrong decisions cannotbe ignored.

rather than as a filter of the fit and unfit. These ideas are truly useful for all students,whether male or female, majority or minority. There are many concrete ways in which these ideas can be applied:• Teach the history of the field.• Find role models. Tried and true, maybe even trite, but it is an important element for improving and diversifying the image of engineers.• Create units on ethical, environmental, social constraints on engineering design. Don’t be afraid to discuss the ethical/political ramifications of major advances in the sciences and technology.• Set problem solving in a meaningful and complete context.

There is growing evidence that studentmotivation [8] and engagement [9] play a critical role in learning [10] to the extent that studentengagement has been used as a proxy for quality of learning [11]. Hence, visions for active learningapproaches aimed at enhancing engagement need to be explored for higher education [12-13].Research in the area of game-based learning suggests that educational games are effective infacilitating learning processes and enhancing knowledge transfer.
