Reengineering The Undergraduate Industrial Engineering Program

该项目将在中央佛罗里达大学进行系级改革，以重新设计本科工业工程课程。 这一全面的多方面计划将涉及在课程中做出重大改变，转变教师的教学策略，在课堂上引入新技术，同时为学生提供额外的发展经验，以及制定积极的招收学生进入工业工程专业的战略。在此执行赠款期间，为实现项目的既定愿景和目标而设计的具体目标包括：重新设计课程，包括为学生在非传统制造业（即服务业，信息技术产业）的职业生涯做准备的课程;课程也将进行修改，允许学生辅修工程管理，以充分准备工作岗位和工程管理和领导的角色责任。将强调人的信息加工的认知学习理论与强调教学策略的教学设计理论相结合。推动具体的课程开发和学习教学法，这将影响教学策略，体验式学习和学生在课堂上的体验。整合认知学习理论和教学设计理论，以确定适当的使用技术来支持课堂教学目标和学生的学习目标.制定积极的招聘策略，提高HS学生对IE职业的认识，并吸引他们追求工业工程，特别强调暴露历史上代表性不足的群体和女性成员。

This project will undertake department level reform at the University of Central Florida to reengineer the Undergraduate Industrial Engineering program. This comprehensive multi-faceted plan will involve making significant changes in the curriculum, transforming faculty instructional strategies, introducing new technology in the classrooms while providing additional developmental experiences for the students, as well as developing aggressive strategies of recruiting students into the Industrial Engineering Profession. The specific objectivesdesigned to be pursued during this implementation grant to achieve the stated vision and goals of the project include the following:A. Reengineering of the Curriculum to include courses that prepares students for careers innontraditional manufacturing industries (i.e. service industries, information technologyindustries); also the curriculum will be modified to allow students to Minor in EngineeringManagement to adequately prepare for job positions and role responsibilities in engineeringmanagement and leadershipB. Integrating Cognitive Learning Theory, which emphasizes human information processing,with instructional design theory, which emphasizes strategies of instruction. To drivespecific course development and learning pedagogy that will influence instructionalstrategies, experiential learning, and student experiences in the classroom.C. Integrating Cognitive Learning Theory and Instructional Design Theory, to identifyappropriate uses of technology to support classroom instruction goals and student learningobjectives.D. Developing aggressive recruiting strategies that increase awareness of IE careers among HSstudents and serves to entice them to pursue Industrial Engineering with special emphasisupon exposing members of historically underrepresented groups and females.
