techniques of systems analysis from systems engineering or industrialengineering. Today, because of the rapid growth in computer technology and the widespread useof the term "systems analyst" in the computer industry, most people associate systems analysis withcomputers and information systems. However, the basic concepts of systems analysis areapplicable and quite useful for anyone facing difficult problems involving a variety of people andthings.There are three basic concepts from systems analysis that would be particularly useful indeveloping urban microenterprises using appropriate technologies. The first concept is to identifyall of the stakeholders (i.e., the people that could be impacted by the urban microenterprises) andinclude them where

AbstractTypically, FEA courses are offered at a graduate level, covering the theoretical basis with littleor no effort to apply this technology to real problems. In some institutions, this course is offeredto seniors, but the content is also mostly theoretical. At Wentworth, we have designed an FEAcourse based on our industrial experience which could be labeled “Applied Finite ElementAnalysis”.

Clermont currently offers courses in electrical engineering technology, computer systems support, physics, chemistry, biology and computer information systems. Associate degrees and/or certificates are available in several of these areas. While a technology club would obviously serve these disciplines well, technology really knows no boundaries and can be useful to students in business and humanities too. The club should have something for anybody who has an interest in being involved.II.
