Abstract
This paper discusses the integration of an innovative engineering technology curriculum with Web-based technology in robotics, mechatronics, and E-quality at Drexel University. The School of Technology and Professional Studies in the Goodwin College has offered a co-op-based Applied Engineering Technology (AET) major since 2002. The program comprises three concentrations in Electrical, Mechanical, and Industrial Engineering Technology and provides an integrated educational experience directed toward developing the ability to apply the knowledge gained in college to the solution of practical problems in engineering technology fields. The majority of courses are fully integrated with training and laboratory experience to provide students with a strong foundation of engineering practices and to stimulate students' interests by using a problem solving approach in state-of-the-art laboratories. Key efforts in the development process include creation of the Network-based laboratories that can significantly contribute to the development of new courses integrated with the Internet-based technology in robotics, automation, and E-quality. Development of Web-based technology laboratories and capstone courses such as Robotics and Mechatronics, Engineering Quality Methods, Thermodynamics, and Manufacturing Information Management are described in this paper.
