2. Preparing Effective Global Engineers

3. Transition to Edu EDUCATORS

4. Enable Educators Multi-disciplinary Labs “Pool several engineering departments’ resources. You get more out of your lab activity with reduced amount of overhead to building, running and maintaining a lab.” -Dr. Andrew Alleyne, Associate Dean of University of Illinois

5. `` RESEARCHERS

6. Engage Researchers Medical Robotics

7. INDUSTRY “…the 21 st century will be known as the age of automatic control.” - Dr. Mark Spong, Dean of Engineering, University of Texas

8. G8 Leaders ●USA – Obama : LAW ●UK – David Cameron : LAW ●France Nicolas Sarkozy : LAW ●Japan Naoto Kan : LAW ●Italy Sylvio Berlusconi : LAW ●Russia – Dimitry Medvedev : LAW ●Canada – Harper : ECONOMY ●China – Hu Jintao : ENGINEER ●Germany - Angela Merkel : PHYSICIST

9. Political Will GOOD IDEA ……. ? Good idea poorly executed, hybrid car/hybrid car, solar powered vehicle

10. “We know the countries that out-teach us today will out-compete us tomorrow.” –President Obama Educate.Innovate.

11. STAKEHOLDERS - STUDENTS ●Global engineers –Engineers who are well informed about problems in multiple contexts, –Can operate with engineers and situations different from those in their immediate surroundings –Can apply their individual, localized training to universally relevant issues. –These globally minded students can often feel out of place within scientifically strict and theoretically dense curricula. ●Despite stereotypes, engineers who enjoy communication and networking, ethics and social issues do exist. ●THAT’S ME …. I have found my home !!!!

13. 4.Appeal Early to Future Generations Quanser’s Dr. Apkarian demonstrates Biomedical experiments to young students.

14. TOP Engineering Contributions 1.Electricity 2.Automobile 3.Airplane 4.Water Supply and Distribution 5.Electronics 6.Radio & TV 7.Agricultural Mechanization 8.Computers 9.Telephone 10. Internet

15. Encouraging and Developing Future Engineers Ask yourselves “What can I do to help”. ●Increase demand … make Engineering FUN. ●Make Engineering RELEVANT ●Communicate what engineers DO ●Go visit local community ●GIVE THEM PERMISSION TO FAIL

16. Responding to the Changing Global Context ●WHAT problems now DRIVE engineering –ALL PERVASIVE TECHNOLOGY –TIGHTLY COUPLED –HIGHLY COMPLEX –SYSTEM LEVEL THINKING REQUIRED

17. The World Today SYNERGISTIC GLOBAL COLLABORATION

18. Responding to the Changing Global Context ●PLAY ●FAIL ●COLLABORATE

19. Why Do I Care? “Fostering leadership and global responsibility through creative engineering.” Quanser Mission
