monograph will serve as a comprehensive EDG curriculum guide, andwill be distributed to all college faculty who are identified as teaching Engineering Design Graphics, as well as toall Engineering and Technology Deans.IntroductionThe field of Engineering Design Graphics (EDG) has been a cornerstone in engineering education forover a century. Courses in EDG are typically incorporated into the curriculum in either the freshman orearly sophomore year, and in many cases it is a core requirement for all engineering majors. In the past,the academic focus for Engineering Design Graphics has been developing methodology for producing andreading engineering drawings, which were the traditional communication links between design andmanufacturing.

Cooney, Michael Bowman Purdue School of Engineering and Technology at IUPUIBACKGROUND Electronics manufacturing is a major industry, one of the largest in the United States. Even thoughthe electronics industry is well established, industry representatives claim there is a lack of qualilledemployees [1]. Many technical positions are fflled by people who have little or no preparation inmanufacturing equipment, problems, and processes. Programs are needed to train and retrain people forthis fast growing

]. The focus of this paper is on the spring semesterSophomore Engineering Clinic II (the fourth of the 8-semester clinic sequence) wherecommunication is integrated with a semester long multidisciplinary design project. Students pickone of two design projects. The first is to design and build a guitar effects pedal. The secondinvolves an economic and engineering analysis of the design and operation of a baseball stadium.The theme is entrepreneurship in that students must be able to convince a consumer to buy theirproduct. This necessitates an excellent design and communication with both technical and non-technical people.Motivation In the modern technological world, it is being recognized in many higher educationinstitutions that an
recently retired as IBMs Vice President for Science and Technology and his article reflectsthe corporate viewpoint. His article, “Rethinking the Ph.D.” is adapted from, “What Is A Science or Engineering Ph.D.For?” --- A lecture he delivered at M I T in November of 1993. The upheaval in east-west relations and the rapid transformation of global markets have stimulated a fundamental reexamination of U.S. science and technology activities. So far, however, there has been little serious reassessment of the underlying assumptions, expectations, and requirements of Ph.D programs in science and engineering.

engineers through “handson” experiential learning of new technologies, new design methodologies and tools, newproducts and manufacturing techniques and regulatory and standards issues. The programprovides opportunities to hone personal competencies, personal attributes and business skills inpreparation for leadership roles.The graduate course work program consists of three stages, with an award being given after eachstage. At the end of the first stage, which corresponds to one semester of full time study, aGraduate Certificate is awarded. At the end of an additional semester of full time study aGraduate Diploma is awarded. If the student completes one more semester of full time study aMaster’s degree is awarded.Rationale for IntroductionPrior to

Education DilemmaTHE AEROSPACE CHALLENGE. Aerospace is arguably the most consistently dynamic and excitingof all technical fields some 100 years after the Wright brothers accomplished their firstcontrolled powered flight. Design proficiency is key to such evolutionary and revolutionaryadvancements.INDUSTRY CRISIS. The degree to which the nation’s current and future industry needs can besatisfied will depend on at least two factors: advances in technology and the availability ofhighly trained engineers. Government and industry leaders are concerned that the shortage oftalented scientists and engineers in the U.S. aerospace and defense complex is getting worse.Clearly, the U.S. aerospace industry is in a state of sustained pre- and post-9/11 crisis2
