New Visions in Engineering Education: Breaking from Conventional Models in Creative Approaches

A. Khodaparast Page 1

In this paper, the authors reviewed and analyzed the benefits encountered in forming multidisciplinary teams. The challenge is to ensure that we, as educators, choose our own destiny by developing a new vision in engineering education. The researchers outlined that these methods have a considerable impact on students. The benefits are considerable, both academically and acquiring management and communication skills. The present article is an investigation into teaching methods and methodology. Methods are reported to enrich students, experiences, thereby improving thir academic performance and sense of satisfaction. The authors seek here to contribute to the family of educators with some new ideas that have emerged from the experiences gained over the last two decades. This revision is useful for recognizing what it is exactly needed to be performed to improve the talent of graduated engineers. One of the strategic faculty approach for such development is the element of constracting a long – term industry education partnerships.

The Necessity of Inspection of Undergraduate Educational Programs for Chemical Engineerrs According to the Requirement of Industries

A. Rahimi, F. Aghamiri Page 13

present article necessity of educational changes in chemical engineers according to the last improvement in teaching methods and logical requirement of industries has been discussed. In one-side the educational program of chemical engineering should be reviewed and changed according to the new concepts in economics and industries. From the other side the preserve of educational goals including teaching of new knowledge to the students notifies that any types of action in order to create basic changes be taken into account very carefully. In order to reach an effective and comprehensive program for the refered goals, some preliminary requirements like classification of chemical engineering departments based on their abilities and regional positions, more emphasis on the fundamental principles of education including transport phenomena and unit operation courses, increasing of applied courses. Teaching of new process design software’s, increasing the number and quality of practical courses and using of industrial specialists in teaching of applied and practical courses have been examined elaborately. Also attention should be made for our country, existing restrictions including the high population of students in universities and the shortcoming of educational and modern industrial equipment. These are effective elements to be useful in this planning.

Women and Their Participation in Engineering Fields and Professions

T. Kaghzchi, M. Takht Ravanchi Page 29

Paying attention to cultural and social developments besides the economical aspects, is very important. Human, plays an important role in countries development. As women have effective influence on a country’s development, their role in reaching this goal must be considered. In this paper, women’s participation in engineering fields and professions in different countries around the world, especially in Iran, are considered and compared.

Women,s Role in Development of Science and Engineering

A. Vafaei, Ali Kaveh, M. Sadegh Azar Page 51

There is a high rate of female graduates from higher learning institutes of the country every year. Deployment of these graduates, knowledge in various fields is a significant contribution to the scientific and economic development of our society. This paper studies the role of women in different engineering fields. It also identifies the existing resourses for women’s participation in the abovementioned fields and the important parameters in the process of women’s employment. Different statistical studies were co ducted based on the two hypothesis of this research which are: 1. The relationship between women’s characteristics and their role in engineering fields, 2. The influence of the social parameters on the role of women. Through the evaluation of the results, the percentage of female graduates and also the percentage of female employees in engineering field’s were calculated. Ultimately, a case study consisting of Iran, France, England, China and also the United States was carried out.

Engineering Educational Systems

J. Hejazi, M. Ghafari Page 93

Engineering education like others has its own discipline, roles and specifications which should be defined and programised to increase its efficiency. The present paper is a brief selection of two projects: Historical evaluation of engineering education in Iran and in the world(1999) Material engineering education, Modeling and disciplines (2004). The article is dialed with the elements concerned in engineering education. Although the paper may be used in all other fields, but it specially is oriented to engineering education. The examples in any necessary subject are concerned with materials science and engineering.

Developing @ Sharing Internet Resources in the Education of Materials Science and Engineering

K. Janghorban, M. Mohammad Alipoor Page 135

As the World Wide Web externd, multimedia and programming technologies are evolving to enable the development of instructional software for significant depth and interactivity. This article discusses the development and evolution of web-based tools to support introductory materials science courses and demonstrates how these tools (including QuickTime, Java, JavaScript and virtual reality modeling language) can be used for educational purposes. Such educational approaches with minor adjustment have been successfully integrated into introductory materials science courses in several institutions and have been very well received by lecturers and students. In light of this success, ways in which web-based content can be more widely distributed are more eagerly pursued and steps to optimize the structure and application of such resources are considered as the next stage in this educational process. In this article, issues motivating and arising from this sharing of educational resources are discussed, and a list of multimedia tools for materials science is also demonstrated. A brief review of the current condition of computational and simulation tools in materials science and engineering with introduction of two of the most utilized softwares in this discipline are also presented.
