All engineering majors arerequired to take an introductory course on engineering design. The course that wasoffered during the fall of 2003 had students that were majoring in mechanical, electricaland computer engineering, and also a few undecided majors. This paper outlines some ofthe novel approaches adopted in this course. Some of the concepts were: (a) use ofstudent teams to study a number of actual case histories at different stages of instructionas well as to perform a number of classroom activities, (b) introduction of a hands-onteam project, (c

Academia?The number of students entering engineering and technology fields is declining5. Most two-yearassociate programs are seeing a decline in enrollment across the country because parents andhigh school guidance instructors push high school students into four-year schools to major ineither non-technical areas or innovative technology disciplines such as bioinformatics andnanotechnology.In response to declining enrollment, most schools are not supporting their electric powerprograms. Four-year programs are diminishing; most power professors are at or near retirementage and few are being replaced. The number of course offerings are declining and obtaining agood foundation in the electric power field is becoming increasingly difficult. Graduate
