Inter-Society Activities Mentoring EMC Engineers By David A. Case NCE, RAC Chairman "We need to review our skill sets and determine not only what skill sets we need to pass on to those who work for us, or eventually will occupy our chairs, but what tricks can we teach them. In other words, teach the tricks that make an average test engineer an above average tester, or an exceptional compliance engineer." Education has always been a key in EMC and a very important key. More and more I find myself in situations where I must do impromptu training even when I am not planning on it. Sometimes it is fun, other times it is annoying. As the field of EMC expands, the greater need for training as our ranks grow. One thing I have noticed is that some of the basic skill sets are not actually being taught. For example, last year while at a test lab that was qualifying one of our radios, the tester observed that we had a failing frequency below 100 MHz. However, he was surprised when I explained it was channel three audio and was not our product. Since I did not know the ambient of the test lab, how could I know it was an ambient? I explained that when you work in RF, you learn at what frequencies the various services operate in so as to avoid problems. He was more surprised when I proved that I was correct by locking on the signal and demodulating it to hear the audio. It seemed no one had taught him to do that before. Basically what is required is mentoring. My own skill set was greatly enhanced by having worked with, or even now working with, skilled practitioners in the field whose breadth of knowledge covers areas in which I am not as well versed.

David Fong Background David Fong has served as a Verification Design Manager at S3 Graphics for the past four years. He manages a group in Fremont, CA, and in Shanghai, China. After having seen too many projects fail due to insufficient quality of testing, he made the switch from design to verification. In the previous thirteen years, he worked as a Project Lead Engineer and ASIC Design Engineer for various "fabless" semiconductor companies in Silicon Valley. His BSEE was completed at San Jose State University and he completed several graduate courses at Santa Clara Universi ty. After reading about the needs of schools in newspapers, and watching news reports, he became convicted to share his interests in education and technology. City Technology Involvement and Responsibilities The majority of David's time is spent in reading and understanding the postings from the teachers across the nation. He checks to see if there are specific questions for the engineers. He is sometimes asked for the engineer's perspective - how engineers might see or examine a given problem. Educational Outreach Experiences David's other educational outreach experiences involved setting up a website and e-mail reflector to inform and recruit IEEE members about the many educational volunteer opportunities in the local

The National Engineers Week consortium includes more than 100 engineering, scientific, and education societies, and major corporations dedicated to increasing public awareness and appreciation of engineering. Co-chairs for 2002 are the American Society of Civil Engineers, celebrating its 150 th anniversary, and DuPont, celebrating its 200 th anniversary. Increasingly, National Engineers Week has focused on sharing the importance of engineering with young people. The National Engineers Week Committee believes that the sooner young people consider engineering as a viable career option, the earlier they can begin to make educational choices such as taking sufficient math and science courses in middle and high school that will allow them to pursue engineering and technical studies in college. As part of that effort, National Engineers Week 2002 activities feature two exciting youth initiatives.

From: ENGINEERING EDUCATION: January 1983 A CASE FOR TEACHING ENGINEERING WITH CASES Jerald M. Henderson, University of California, Davis Laura E. Bellman, The Clorox Company Burford J. Furman, IBM Corporation Why teach "theory" and "design" when you can teach engineering? Through case studies, the authors argue, students can learn basicprinciples while gaining experience with engineering practice throughout their undergraduate years. Using engineering case studies - accounts of actual engineering in practice - can bring much-needed realism to the classroom. In this article we treat the use of engineering cases as we would approach any significant engineering design problem: we define the problem; identify alternative ways to solve it; pick the best method; and finally, carry it out. The Problem The purpose of an undergraduate engineering education is to prepare people to practice engineering. Most of us agree on what engineering is, though we may argue about curricula and faculty roles. Faculty and others often use the term "good student" to mean a student with a high grade point average (GPA). The GPA, while a useful indicator of a student's academic ability, is not, however, as reliable at predicting engineering ability. During interview season students are often referred to as a college's product. To make a point, we will pursue this impersonal image a little further. When companies come to campus to buy a product, what do they want? What are they actually buying and what should they be buying? We have observed that industry considers, in order of importance

How do you go from great idea to working prototype of a new product? Developing creative solutions to real problems is what designers and engineers do every day. Now, a brand-new curriculum called Design and Discovery Design and Discovery includes everything needed to organize and teach a program, including detailed lesson plans for inquiry-based, hands-on learning. The course takes students, ages 11-14, through a series of steps and learning activities, building their understanding in a sequential way. Students start by examining the design of the simple paper clip, then quickly progress to discovering the inner workings of a bicycle. Hands-on activities teach them how to wire electrical circuits, build mechanical toys, and accomplish other targeted goals. When it's time to create their own working prototypes, students take their ideas for new products through the same process that professionals use. They learn to keep a design notebook, recording their observations as they gather input from focus groups, put prototypes through field tests, and make design modifications. The course is appropriate for both formal and informal learning contexts; middle school science electives, summer camps, youth groups, or after-school enrichment activities.

Teaching Students and Teachers - An Opportunity for All Engineers By Harry Roman O ne of the best decisions I ever made came early in my engineering career. I joined my company's speakers' bureau and learned how to give oral presentations to a wide variety of civic, fraternal, professional, and educational groups. The experience gained helped me speak with confidence in public, improve my presentation skills, and sell new ideas in my company. And it enabled me to lead a variety of professional organizations and serve as a public official in my town. But perhaps most of all, it helped me get involved with the teaching community. Speaking to teachers and designing technology education seminars has given me enormous professional enjoyment. Now is a good time to join forces with the educational community, as educators are striving to integrate more real-world problem-solving skills into curriculums by writing them into state standards for teachers and administrators. You may have heard such efforts in your local schools referred to as "teaching across the curriculum," "school to work," or "cross-content curriculum standards." This reflects the fact that to survive in today's globally competitive world, where the knowledge on the planet will soon double every seven months, one must constantly learn, unlearn, and relearn as dynamics dictate. For most companies, what they know will become as important as what they own. Employees will become the fundamental units of productivity in the Information Age, not machines. Creativity, imagination, and know-how will provide the competitive advantage for a company to stay abreast in an increasingly complex and interconnected world.

Fire Protection Engineer by Accident M ost people who become engineers follow a traditional path. They decide to pursue the profession while in high school, and then they trudge off to engineering college. Some stick it out, others transfer after a few weeks to an easier major like business. And then there's folks like Robert Gagnon, who has taken a back-door approach in carving a niche as a sought-after fire protection engineer. "It's really amazing that I fell into it by accident," muses the resident of Ellicott City, Maryland. After getting a math degree from Western Maryland College in Westminster, Gagnon hired an employment firm to find a job where he could use his degree. "They came up with an opportunity at Automatic Sprinkler Corporation of America, and I went to an interview thinking I would be designing nozzles for lawn sprinklers. When I got there, I found it was for fire sprinklers." He went to work at Automatic Sprinkler in 1970 in Baltimore designing and calculating things like wet pipe, dry pipe, preaction, and antifreeze systems. "As soon as I got into it, I knew this was something I was going to do the rest of my life." The company later transferred Gagnon to Philadelphia, where he worked on explosion suppression, deluge, high speed, foam, halon, and dry chemical designs. Then he went to Cleveland, where he performed the same functions. But, as the Washington, D.C.-born Gagnon, recalls, "The first opportunity, I made my way back to the Baltimore-Washington area. I really missed it when I was away." He later became district design manager in the Arlington, Virginia office, where he hired, managed, and trained design personnel. In 1983, he came back to the Baltimore office to manage and train special hazards technicians, design and manage projects involving nuclear power, teach seminars and write handbooks for regional engineering managers, and perform consulting services.
