After graduation I am planning to enroll in graduate school in the US. In summer 2011, I was trained at Imperial College in London, UK to use motion tracking system to analyze human motion. In summer 2012 I did my internship at Siemens Healthcare in Erlangen, Germany where I was introduced
disparities between the world’s rich and poor nations,including international trade, international organizations, national and local governance, and thecultural imperatives that guide a society’s actions.Following a look at the societal context in which development takes place, students begin tothink critically about the development process itself, and the role of the development workerwithin a community. They look at various approaches to development work and the stepsnecessary for successful project planning and implementation. Students are challenged todevelop a community assessment survey that could be used to gather the information necessary

With each University’s academic semesters starting and ending on differentdates, careful consideration had to be taken into account when planning the WBS and schedule.A significant difference in educational approach was that the University of Colorado has formalsenior and graduate design course offerings in its curriculum with a rigorous systems engineeringeducational component; whereas the Universities of Stuttgart and Sydney organized their teamsin a framework often described as “independent studies.”Compared to conventional academic projects, the Hyperion schedule was orders of magnitudemore complicated to develop as special consideration had to be made to accommodate the out ofsync university’s semesters.

simultaneously. This method has been used across the college since 2006,resulting in a dedicated community of 40+ engineering faculty using direct assessment toevaluate the efficacy of their own programs, and to plan and implement improvement at bothcourse and program levels. The Engineering Professional Skills Assessment (EPSA) is the onlydirect method for teaching and measuring these skills simultaneously in the literature; thetechnical paper describing Year 1 implementation of the method won the 2008 ASEE BestOverall Conference Paper Award5 .
