建议没有。项目编号：0230652主要研究者：crumton - young， lesien机构名称：佛罗里达中央大学标题：IEMS本科项目重组摘要：IEMS本科项目重组本基金的目的是评估、制定战略并制定计划，以加强佛罗里达中央大学工业工程与管理系统系的本科项目。加强本科课程应产生以下效果：增加学生攻读工业工程学位的吸引力，更好地保留工业工程专业的学生，并更好地为工业工程毕业生做好准备，以满足未来高科技社会中工程师的劳动力需求。此外，在这项拟议的规划拨款中进行的规划工作将有助于建立一个框架，供有意改进其课程、课程设置、交付方法、教学策略和毕业生整体准备的工业工程系使用。计划活动将首先通过以下渠道进行传播：美国工程教育学会会议、工业工程学会全国会议、IIE学术系主任理事会、ASEE工程教育杂志、ASEE Prism杂志和UCF WWW。为确保该项目的总体目标得以实现，在此计划拨款期间要追求的具体目标包括：1)制定将新兴主题引入IE课程的计划；2)制定提高学生整体解决问题能力的计划；3)制定计划，包括更多的体验/主动学习练习；4)制定计划，将更多的技术纳入课堂；5)制定改善教学策略和教师专业发展的计划；6)制定计划，加强学生的专业发展和领导能力；7)制定利用合作伙伴关系的计划，以增加工业工程学科中有才华的学生的数量。

PROPOSAL NO.: 0230652PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Crumpton-Young, LesiaINSTITUTION NAME: University of Central FloridaTITLE: Reengineering The Undergraduate IEMS ProgramAbstractReengineering the Undergraduate IEMS ProgramThe purpose of this grant is to assess, strategize, and generate plans for enhancing the undergraduate program in the Department of Industrial Engineering and Management Systems at The University of Central Florida. Enhancement of the Undergraduate program should yield the following: an increased attraction by students to pursue degrees in IE, better retention of students in IE majors, and better preparation of IE graduates to meet the future workforce needs of engineers employed in a high-tech society. Additionally, planning efforts undertaken in this proposed planning grant will help to establish a framework that can be used by Industrial Engineering departments interested in improving their courses, curriculum, methods of delivery, instructional strategies, and overall preparation of their graduates. Planning activities undertaken in this proposed grant will initially be disseminated through the following venues: American Society of Engineering Education Conferences, Institute of Industrial Engineering National Conference, IIE Council of Academic Department Heads, ASEE Journal of Engineering Education, ASEE Prism Magazine, and the UCF WWW. The specific objectives to be pursued during this planning grant to ensure that the overall goals of this project are met include: 1) developing plans for introducing emerging topics into the IE curriculum; 2) developing plans for increasing student holistic problem solving capabilities; 3) developing plans for including more experiential/active learning exercises; 4) developing plans for incorporating more technology into classrooms; 5) developing plans for improving instructional strategies and faculty professional development; 6) developing plans for enhancing professional development and leadership capabilities of students; and 7) developing plans for exploiting partnerships to increase the number of talented students in IE disciplines.
