a. Current Bulletin listing
Electrical and Computer Engineering Technology
Penn State Erie, The Behrend College (ECET)
This major prepares graduates for careers in such varied areas as electronics, microprocessors,
computer hardware and software, communications, instrumentation and control, and power. The
major consists of two options, one in Electrical Engineering Technology, the other in Computer
Engineering Technology. Both options provide education in applied mathematics, physics,
electrical and electronic circuit analysis and design, microprocessors, instrumentation and
quality control. The Electrical Engineering Technology option provides specialty education in
control theory, communication systems, and power systems. The Computer Engineering
Technology option provides specialty education in software development, embedded computer
systems, and networking. Both options in the major culminate with a capstone design project
involving an actual design or manufacturing problem, often sponsored by industry. Graduates
may qualify as engineering technologists working side-by-side with engineers, scientists, and
other skilled workers in these capacities. Occupations include electrical and electronic systems
design, microprocessor applications, instrumentation and control, computer programming,
electrical testing, plant engineering, quality control, management, and technical sales and
service.
For the B.S. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering Technology, a minimum of 128
credits is required. Each student must earn at least a grade of C in each 300- and 400-level
course in the major field.

Not applicable.
d. Justification for EACH change, expected enrollment and effects, if
any.
The ECET program has worked with the Mechanical Engineering
Technology (MET) program to develop a Computer-Aided Design (CAD)
course targeted directly to ECET students. The course will focus on
introducing students to three dimensional CAD, which has become the
prevalent design tool in industrial environments for the layout of
components and systems. The existing requirement for graphics and CAD
includes a one-credit course (EG T 101) that does not require the use of
CAD software. This two credit course will ensure that students receive
sufficient instruction to be able to convey ideas in a 3-D CAD environment.
Students transferring to the ECET program from another campus will still
receive credit for EG T 101 and EG T 102 as meeting the CAD requirement.
e. Documentation of the necessary consultation.

Course Description:
This course is intended to teach Electrical and Computer Engineering Technology
students to use a 3-D CAD software package to communicate their ideas so that
they may transfer their ideas to others including engineers, designers, and lay
people.
Students will successfully create 3-D objects such as rectangular solids, spheres,
and cylinders. Those 3-D objects will then be employed to create actual samplings
of electrical and electronic components (such as resistors, capacitors,
transformers, etc), as well as electro-mechanical components (such as relays,
motors, solenoids, etc), enclosures (chassis), and operator interfaces (knobs,
buttons, displays, etc) and similar items. Students will successfully create 3-D
assemblies. Students will successfully create working drawings of components
and assemblies.
The designated course outcomes are as follows: visualize mechanical part(s) 2-D
to 3-D and vice versa; incorporate design intent into solid models using
extrusions, revolves, shells, ribs, chamfers and rounds; construct datum references
(e.g. planes and axes) to facilitate solid modeling; properly execute duplicating
operations to create circular and linear patterns of features and mirrored features;
use mathematical relations to drive solid models; create a detail drawing of a
mechanical part; create 3-D assemblies.

Instructional, Educational, and Course Objectives:
Students will successfully create 3-D objects such as rectangular solids, spheres,
and cylinders. Those 3-D objects will then be employed to create actual samplings
of electrical and electronic components (such as resistors, capacitors,
transformers, etc), as well as electro-mechanical components (such as relays,

buttons, displays, etc) and similar items. Students will successfully create 3-D
assemblies. Students will successfully create working drawings of components
and assemblies.
2.
Evaluation method of the course:
Students will be evaluated by project lessons, quizzes, exams, and a final project.
3.
Relationship of the course to other courses:
This course material will be used in other courses such as the capstone senior
project.
4.
Relationship of the course to major, option, minor, or General Education:
This course will be required for students in Electrical and Computer Engineering
Technology (ECET), and will substitute for EG T 101/102 for associate degree
Electrical Engineering Technology students who take this course. Students would
receive credit for satisfying EG T 119, ED&G 100, or EG T 101/102 (for either
the associate or baccalaureate degrees). The courses are basically interchangeable
from the perspective of meeting graduation requirements.
5.
Consultation with other departments and academic support units:
We sent copies of this proposal to relevant engineering technology administrators
including Dhushy Sathianathan (Head of SEDTAPP at University Park), Andy
Vavrek (Altoona College), Robert Bartkowiak (Lehigh Valley), and Jerry Shoup

Please describe any additional technology needs on an attached sheet.
The computers used for this course need to run an operating system compatible with the solid
modeling software chosen for this course. The requirement of the software is that it be a solid
modeling software capable of producing 2D and 3D graphical representation of electrical,
mechanical, and electro-mechanical assemblies and components. It is not the intent of this
curricular proposal to limit any campus from choosing the brand of software that must be used to
teach the course; therefore, the type of software and hardware may vary with the solid modeling
software selected. As an example, here at Penn State Behrend, we employ Pro Engineer Wildfire
3.0 as the solid modeling software. It is operated on a PC based computer with Windows XP
operating system.

Hello! I was asked to contact you to provide consult on a new course proposal for Penn State
Erie, The Behrend College by David Johnson, program chair of Mechanical Engineering
Technology and Robert Weissbach, program chair of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Technology.
I have attached the course proposal for EG T 119 - Introduction to CAD for Electrical and
Computer Engineering Technologists. If you could provide consult by November 27, we would
appreciate it. Please respond to me and I will contact the necessary faculty here.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

I think the course looks very useful and makes sense given the current computing tools that are at our
disposal. So in principle I approve it subject to a comment and some questions. First the comment: the
short description under A. Course Listing no. 6. has 21 words, i.e. one extra. I suggest leaving off the
first word "An". The questions I have are: What happens if a student has already taken EG T 101 and
102? Do they also need to take EG T 119 to satisfy the program requirements for the BS E_CMP_ET
degree? If so, do they get any credit for EG T 101 and 102?
Response provided: "Robert S. Weissbach" <rsw7@psu.edu>, Mon, 13 Nov 2006 18:11:41 0500
Students would get credit for satisfying either EGT 119, or EGT 101/102 (for either the associate
or baccalaureate degrees). The courses are basically interchangeable from the perspective of
meeting graduation requirements.
Comment received: Ronald Land rel9@psu.edu, Sun, 12 Nov 2006 23:01:21 -0500
One immediate comment I have is that I think you will have to get the concurrence of the EET
curriculum committee and then the head of SEDTAPP before you can substitute this course for
EGT101/102 for associate degree EET students. I doubt that will be a problem, but I think you
do need to ask the question of the EET committee.

With the EMET accepting first-year students and having them take ED&G 100 instead of EGT 101, EGT
102 & ET 002 , Berks is having 2EET and 2MET students also take ED&G 100 in an attempt to move
toward a common year for both ET and ENGR students. Along with Jerry's comments concerning EGT
101 & 102 being accepted for EGT 119, will ED&G 100 also be accepted for EGT 119?
First-year ET students that test into MATH 021 are being advised at FTCAP to enroll in MATH 081 and
follow the two-year math sequence, but ET students that test into MATH 022 are being advised to enroll
in MATH 022 and follow the four-year math sequence. Will MATH 022, 026 & 140 substitute for
MATH 081, 082 & 083 at Behrend for ET transfer students from Berks?
