Computer Graphics represents a new discipline in engineering curricula and a significant new tool for Engineering Design and Drafting. The two week seminar is incorporating 16 participants with the faculty continuing as their mentors both during and after the completion of the seminar. The seminar includes presentations, discussions, demonstrations and other forms of interaction between participants and faculty that aid in teaching and research in the area of Engineering and Computer Graphics. A follow-up meeting a year later at the annual ASEE Conference will include presentations of research papers initiated during the seminar and discussions of the course development efforts made by participants at their home institutions. This project attracts, interests, enlightens and initiates those experienced and promising undergraduate instructors teaching traditional Engineering Graphics, needing motivation, background and know-how in developing new Computer Graphics laboratories and applying leading-edge technology to the teaching of modern, CADD-based Engineering Graphics courses. Also, participants are motivated in becoming self-reliant in making their own research contributions to the field of Engineering Education. The home institutions are contributing the travel costs for their faculty to attend the meeting.

计算机图形学是工程课程中的一门新学科，也是工程设计与制图的重要工具。为期两周的研讨会共有16名参与者，在研讨会期间和结束后，教师将继续担任他们的导师。研讨会包括演讲、讨论、演示和其他形式的参与者与教师之间的互动，有助于工程和计算机图形学领域的教学和研究。一年后在ASEE年度会议上的后续会议将包括研讨会期间发起的研究论文的介绍，以及参与者在其本国机构所做的课程开发工作的讨论。这个项目吸引了，兴趣，启发和启动了那些有经验和有前途的本科教师教授传统的工程图学，他们需要动机，背景和知识来开发新的计算机图形学实验室，并将前沿技术应用于现代的，基于cad的工程图学课程的教学。此外，学员亦有动力自力更生，在工程教育领域作出自己的研究贡献。本国院校将承担其教员参加会议的旅费。
