PROPOSAL NO.: 0229093PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Leonard, MichaelINSTITUTION NAME: Clemson UniversityTITLE: Department-Level Reform of Undergraduate Industrial Engineering Education: A New Paradigm for Engineering Curriculum RenewalAbstractThe primary objective of the proposed planning project is the development of a new scalable and deployable industrial engineering baccalaureate-degree renewal model. This model will be designed to permit scaling up from an information technology kernel to a fully integrated industrial engineering undergraduate curriculum. The model will also serve as a deployable template for the redesign of other baccalaureate degree engineering programs through its use of problem-solving approaches that draw directly from fundamental models in the physical and biological sciences, and its emphasis on the use of nontraditional learning methods. A secondary objective for the planning project is an assessment of the appropriateness and likely impact of the new model. For the first time, a planning process will be developed that will lead to the identification of opportunities to extend tested asynchronous learning mechanism and synthetic environments to support an industrial engineering curriculum in systems and engineering design as it relates to the three emphasis areas of information technology, biotechnology and cognitive theory. The successful completion of this effort will lead to the ability to fill a state and national need for well-prepared industrial engineering graduates. Impact: The planning project activities presented in this proposal are expected to lead to a novel curriculum model that will impact both the education of industrial engineering students and, through time, the education of students in other engineering disciplines.

建议编号：0229093计划研究人员：伦纳德，米歇尔大学名称：克莱姆森大学：本科生工业工程教育的系级改革：工程课程更新的新范式建议的规划项目的主要目标是开发一种新的可扩展和可部署的工业工程学士学位更新模式。这一模式的设计将允许从信息技术核心扩展到完全整合的工业工程本科课程。该模型还将作为重新设计其他学士学位工程课程的可部署模板，方法是使用直接源自物理和生物科学基本模型的问题解决方法，并强调使用非传统学习方法。规划项目的次要目标是评估新模式的适当性和可能产生的影响。将首次制定一项规划进程，以确定扩展经过测试的异步学习机制和综合环境的机会，以支持系统和工程设计方面的工业工程课程，因为它涉及信息技术、生物技术和认知理论这三个重点领域。这一努力的成功完成将导致有能力满足州和全国对准备充分的工业工程毕业生的需求。影响：本提案中提出的规划项目活动预计将导致一种新的课程模式，这种模式将对工业工程学生的教育产生影响，并随着时间的推移，对其他工程学科学生的教育产生影响。
