The authors conducted questionnaire surveys and interviews on the engineers in several enterprises in China from Sept 2012 to Nov 2013. The research investigated the continuing education of engineering graduates in these enterprises and analyzed the relationship between continuing education with career development. This paper summarized the characteristics of continuing education of the enginee...

Engineers work in an increasingly complex entanglement of ideas, people, cultures, technology, systems and environments. Today, decisions made by engineers often have serious implications for not only their clients but for society as a whole and the natural world. Such decisions may potentially influence cultures, ways of living, as well as alter ecosystems which are in delicate balance. In ord...

Academic clinical engineering programs should be designed to provide students with the technical skills and critical thinking abilities necessary to become successful professionals. The success of clinical engineers depends not only on their ability to solve current problems, but also to anticipate their future needs. Employers today demand professionals with a broad knowledge, not limited only...

Although experimentation is a frequent activity of engineers, they usually use primitive strategies to carry on their experiments. A survey identifies the needs of using an efficient and practical technique for the experimentation. Although Six Sigma improvement initiative emphasized the use of Design of Experiments (DoE) for experimentation, engineers still consider it a difficult technique to...

In 2008, a group of clinicians, scientists, engineers, and industry representatives met to discuss advances in the application of engineering technologies to the diagnosis and treatment of patients with epilepsy. The presentations also provided a guide for further technological development, specifically in the evaluation of patients for epilepsy surgery, seizure onset detection and seizure pred...

Stem cells are cells that have not yet differentiated to perform a certain task. Scientists and engineers can manipulate them to differentiate into a certain cell. This is advantageous for the scientific community because scientists, engineers, and doctors can use stem cells for their own reasons. They can be used to cure diseases or for research. Stem cells are a great way to cure certain dise...

AbstrAct In developing traditional learning materials, quality is the key issue to be considered. However, for high technical e-training courses, not only the quality of the learning materials but also the efficiency of developing the courses needs to be taken into consideration. It is a challenging issue for experienced engineers to develop up-to-date e-training courses for inexperienced engin...
