  1. UConn Master of Engineering(MENG) Program MENG Taskforce: R. Ammar, CSE M. Anwar, DE T. Barber, MENG Coordinator B. M. Cetegen, ME R. Christianson, CEE K. R. Pattipati, ECE L. Zhu, CMBE

  2. What are the Goals of the MENG Program? • To meet the educational requirements of industrial • companies and their engineers. • To facilitate interaction of industrial companies with • engineering faculty. • To provide a valuable resource for industry in CT.

  3. History of the Program • Recognizing that Connecticut industry has a significant need for a continuing graduate education program that is convenient to its workforce: • 1998 UConn School of Engineering and United Technologies Corporation (UTC) partnered to bring graduate courses on-site to UTC engineers. • The program was so successful that it has been expanded significantly, both in terms of the course offerings and participating companies.

  4. History of UTC-UConn Program Since Inception [1999] • 307 students taking 1 or more courses • 58 UTC Fuel Cells [Chem Eng] • 37 Hamilton, Otis, UTRC • 208 P&W Students [M.E., M.M.A.T] • 197 M.S. Degrees Granted by School of Eng. • 21 M.S. or MENG Degrees Earned by P&W Employees • Typical P&W Onsite Student Load  45

  5. Master of Engineering Program Description • Common Core Courses - (13 credits) • Concentration Courses - (12 credits) • Independent Study Project - ( 3 credits) TOTAL 28 Credits

  6. Common Core Courses - (13 credits) • 5 courses (4 three-credit courses & 1one-credit course) • Professional Communication & Information Management (ENGR 311 – 3 credits) • Engineering Project Planning & Management (ENGR 312 – 3 credits) • Engineering Analysis (ENGR 3X2 – 3 credits) • Computer Methods in Engineering (ENGR3X3 – 3 credits) • Professional Practice (ENGR 3X0 – 1 credit)

  7. Enrollment History

  8. Plans for the future • Expand existing programs and initiate new ones • All departments participating • Both M.Eng and certificate programs • Initiate distance delivery options (PPT, video, web, E-mail discussion) • College of Continuing Studies (CCS) • Institute of Teaching and Learning (ITL) • SoE technical support staff • Create incentive structure for program/faculty participation • Teaching load policies and financial incentives for course development and/or re-offerings • Negotiate institutional revenue-sharing structure (University, SoE, Departments, Instructors)

  9. Distance delivery options • Synchronous and asynchronous distance delivery of material (PPT charts, video, E-mail chats or VISTA) • Mixed-mode delivery: primarily distance delivery and occasional (once every three weeks) on-site delivery for select nearby locations (P&W, GD-EB, UT-Power) • Some courses offered as distance learning, some others on-site delivery
