Discusses a survey of the techniques used by 29 engineering colleges to recruit and keep women engineering students. (MLH)

Discusses the importance of, and ways to achieve, good communication and honesty between engineers in a working situation to maximize productivity. (MLH)

Discusses the use of team study and seminar courses with ease studies to teach the technical processes, economics, and social effects of material recycling. (MLH)

Discusses the key aspects of developing special-interest, non-credit short courses directed specifically to those already employed in a particular field of engineering or engineering technology. (MLH)

Describes a questionnaire that explored foreign agricultural engineering students' present positions in their home countries, and their opinions on their training in the United States. (MLH)

Describes a combination of lectures, experiments, and analysis with the aid of remote computer terminals that helps the engineering student grasp the fundamentals and implications of a mathematical model applied to a particular job situation. (MLH)

This paper describes an experiment designed to reveal the consequences of the development of a concentration boundary layer. The rate of a mass transfer limited electrochemical reaction is measured and used to obtain the dependence of average Sherwood number on Reynolds number and entrance length. (Author/BB)

In this program, engineering students who have proven to be excellent writers are trained to give individual help to other students. (BB)

The role of professions in their self-regulation is discussed. Recent federal interventions into licensing and professional ethics are presented. (CP)

Licensed professional engineers should discourage mandatory continuing education as a requirement for licensing. Such requirements should be instituted only after proof that a serious problem exists and that it could be addressed by continuing education. (RE)

This article describes two simple undergraduate heat transfer experiments which may reinforce a student's understanding of free convection and radiation. Apparatus, experimental procedure, typical results, and discussion are included. (Author/BB)

This article describes the undergraduate ChE thermodynamics course at Drexel University and the reasons for incorporating a series of laboratory experiments into the course. Included is a list of lecture topics and a description of each of the experiments. (BB)

Examines many issues in the debate concerning mandatory licensing of engineers. Political, safety, and financial considerations are discussed. (CP)

Discusses the electrical engineering profession, qualifications needed to enter the field, and careers graduates in electrical engineering may pursue. (SL)

This program initiated by Nalco Chemical, a major supplier of chemicals for boiler feedwater treatment, uses texts, audiovisual aids, and hands-on experience and is designed to boost the efficiency of boiler operators. (BB)
