the Industrial Consortium to Foster Applied Research for Economic Growth at Tecnol´ogico de Monterrey; also he holds The Roberto Rocca Endowed Energy Research Chair and is the Director of the Master in Energy Engineering Program. In 1979 he got a design engineer position in an Argentinean-French Consortium of private Industrial companies. He worked for them twelve years. In 1991 he left this consortium and with a group of colleagues founded an Engineering Services Company for developing special equipment in the electronics area for industrial applications. Simultaneously to its industrial activities, in 1984 he began teaching at Instituto Tecnol´ogico de Buenos Aires, ITBA. Later, in 1997, he became full-time

Dr. Berrett wanted to create a learningexperience what would build students’ self-confidence, get them out of their comfort zone, andpush them into potential STEM fields for a future career. Dr. Berrett noticed that students in hisclasses

academicculture to best align its curricular programs to make students aware about thepossibilities of using their engineering training to solve real-world problems.To address this challenge, NYIT applied and was selected as one of 25 universities thathave joined the Epicenter’s Pathways to Innovation program.8 This alliance enables us toengage with other schools on fully incorporating innovation and entrepreneurship inundergraduate engineering education.With the support of the Epicenter network, the SoECS is now capitalizing on the ETICto implement significant curricular changes, such as incorporating the Center’s advancedfabrication facilities across the curriculum to teach students about design and rapidprototyping. The SoECS is also organizing
