Described is a project initiated to evaluate and disseminate the Electrical Power Engineering Technology Curriculum developed at Oklahoma State University. The objective of the evaluation phase, to have the original model curriculum evaluated by both present and potential employers, was accomplished in a two-day workshop with participation of…

A survey of 531 electrical engineering graduates of the University of Alabama who had received bachelor's degrees in the years 1950 through 1974 showed that the educational needs of a majority of the respondents could have been adequately served by the mathematics levels present in the engineering technology program. In addition, certain subjects…

An independent engineering evaluation was conducted of the Optical to Tactile Converter (Optacon), a reading aid for the blind which senses the contrast of printed text and converts the information into a tactile presentation. Tasks performed included: user evaluation, optical, electrical, mechanical, production costs, life tests, reliability, and…

This report describes an investigation of a technique for producing paper copies of instructional computer terminal displays. Such a device appears to be a useful adjunct for the development of computer-assisted instructional programs by authors. A digital device was simulated with a minicomputer; the techniques used to construct this device are…

The North Carolina Community College system is composed of 57 technical institutes and community colleges where a variety of curriculums and courses are available. Engineering technology programs have been offered since 1957; at the present time, 180 different occupational curriculums are offered in one or more institutions. In a State system of…

This report is the second volume of a two-part study on wet scrubber systems. The study was undertaken to achieve the following objectives: (1) evaluate current engineering technology, (2) evaluate existing scrubber systems, (3) investigate present usage problems, (4) determine potential new applications, and (5) develop specific research…

A report on the present level of engineering salaries is presented on the basis of the Commission's tenth survey among 860 establishments covering 167,225 engineering graduates, about 20 percent of all degree-holding engineers. Two questionnaires are used, one for non-supervisory graduates and the other for those in supervisory positions. Salary…

The article presents a case history of how a special series of technical mathematics courses was developed in an engineering technology program to meet student needs. It primarily focuses on role of mathematics in the engineering technology curriculum and on some of the problems related to it. (Author/BP)

Presents a listing of industrial members of the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE). Listings include industry name, address, and representatives. (SL)

Presents and discusses data on engineering technology enrollments for all students (by curriculum and level), for women and minority groups, and for all programs (broken down by state and type of degree). Data comparing 1982 to previous years are also included. (BC)

Presents data from the Engineering Manpower Commission's 1983 survey of engineering technology degrees. Results indicate a 12 percent increase in associate degrees and a 9.9 percent increase in bachelor's degrees. Summaries of engineering technology degrees awarded by curriculum and degrees by school and degree level are included. (BC)

Provided are employment pattern data for baccalaureate engineering technology graduates from New York State's engineering technology programs. (SL)
