Empowering Global Engineers: Transforming Education and Industry for the Future

This initiative aims to prepare effective global engineers by uniting educators, researchers, and industry leaders in multi-disciplinary labs. By pooling resources across various engineering departments, we enhance lab activities while minimizing overhead. We engage with the escalating fields of medical robotics, emphasizing crucial areas like surgical robotics and rehabilitation. Our mission is to inspire students to become global engineers who can excel in diverse environments and tackle universally relevant issues. Join us in fostering innovation and global responsibility through creative engineering.

  1. Preparing Effective Global Engineers

  2. Transition to Edu ENABLE EDUCATORS

  3. Enable EducatorsMulti-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

  4. Engage ` RESEARCHERS

  5. Engage ResearchersMedical Robotics • Surgical Robotics Needle Insertion Endonasal Surgery Rehabilitation

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

  7. G8 Leaders • USA – Obama : LAW • UK – David Cameron : LAW • France Nicolas Sarkozy : LAW • Japan Naoto Kan : LAW • Italy Sylvio Berlusconi : LAW • Russia – DimitryMedvedev : LAW • Canada – Harper : ECONOMY • China – HuJintao : ENGINEER • Germany - Angela Merkel : PHYSICIST

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

  9. “We know the countries that out-teach us today willout-compete us tomorrow.” • President Obama Educate. Innovate.

  10. 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 !!!!

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

  12. TOP Engineering Contributions • Electricity • Automobile • Airplane • Water Supply and Distribution • Electronics • Radio & TV • Agricultural Mechanization • Computers • Telephone • Internet

  13. 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

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

  15. The World Today SYNERGISTIC GLOBAL COLLABORATION Customer Project Management Team Manufacturer Design Team

  16. Responding to the Changing Global Context • PLAY • FAIL • COLLABORATE

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

  18. Quanser’s Commitment CAPTIVATE Enable Educators MOTIVATE Engage Researchers GRADUATE Empower Industry
