In today's global competitive environment, the engineering technology curriculum must adopt and reflect the changing needs of industry. This can happen only if the faculty are aware of the current trends in industry and are actively involved with industry and research projects. ASEE/NASA Faculty Fellowship program offers opportunities for professional development for Engineering Technology faculty. A parametric study of water jet cutting (WJC) process was done under the ASEE / NASA faculty fellowship program at NASA Langley Research Center. This research experience has been used to enhance undergraduate curriculum in Mechanical Engineering Technology at Old Dominion University (ODU).

An Integration Of Pc Hardware & Software In Teaching Engineering Technology Courses, Steve Hsiung, Richard Jones

Engineering Technology Faculty Publications

As technology advances, the price of a PC drops dramatically. This trend has resulted in PCs that are complex, powerful, and very affordable. Today's PC is a popular and essential tool in teaching software programming course(s) in C, C++, Visual Basic, or Java, running commercial software supporting courses in circuit simulation/design or circuit board layout, and acting as a workstation to gain access to the Internet or LAN networks. In most Engineering Technology curricula there is a limited amount of linkage between those PC applications. The actual effort to merge the hard-gained knowledge of hardware & software concepts together through …
