Abstract

To satisfy manufacturing engineering accreditation requirements, to assist students in finding and retaining jobs, and to provide equal learning opportunities, global, ethical, and multicultural (GEM) topics were added to the senior design project course. Diverse interactive tools and methods were used to cover the topics and a multifaceted method was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the added topics. Results showed generally significant improvement in students awareness of the GEM topics.
