title = "Incorporating finite element in mechanical engineering technology program via three existing courses and by introducing a senior level elective in the curriculum",
abstract = "Finite Element Analysis has become a powerful tool for Industry, specially, in the Design and Development sector. In response to that, Mechanical Engineering Programs followed by Mechanical Engineering Technology programs all across the country are incorporating Finite Element Analysis as a part of their curricula. This paper describes the distribution of Finite Element Analysis amongst the junior and senior level courses in Mechanical Engineering Technology curriculum at Georgia Southern University. The links between these classes with sophomore classes are established. A stand alone senior level elective course that covers more in depth of Finite Element theory is also developed.",
