Hey EWB'ers,
A few things for you:
Please take 5 minutes and fill out this end of the semester survey <<here>> (Includes asking who all will be here this summer for some sweet EWB activities. It's helps us improve our org semester to semester!)
There is a lot of free food tomorrow! (Friday!)
Good luck with all those end of the semester projects, papers and exams!
Eyleen and Emily :)
Please join us this Friday for an event in honor of Alice Pawley, MS ISyE '03, PhD '07.
Alice Pawley is an Assistant Professor in Engineering Education at Purdue University. She teaches a required course for students interested in becoming engineers on "Ideas to Innovation" and also a graduate student seminar on the "History and Philosophy of Engineering Education". Prior to her appointment at Purdue, Dr. Pawley worked with the University of Wisconsin-Madison Delta Program for Research, Teaching, and Learning (part of the NSF-supported Center for the Integration of Research, Teaching, and Learning), the Wisconsin Engineering Education Laboratory, and the Engineering Learning Center at UW-Madison. Her current research studies how engineers and engineering educators can use the metaphor of a boundary to better understand engineering as a gendered discipline. She was named a Faculty Fellow in 2007 by the National Academy of Engineering’s Center for the Advancement of Engineering Education.

New Course on Globalization and Development!
Below is a description of new course taught by Professor Aseema Sinha, being offered in Fall 2010.
Political Science 401
Fall 2010
Development, Globalization and Power
Instructor: Aseema Sinha
This course will analyze the relationship between Globalization and Development with reference to a diverse group of developing countries. Different dimensions of globalization—economic flows, international rules and organizations, and role of international aid—deserve analysis separately and will studied in their different dimensions. We will also analyze how the concept of development has changed as the forces of globalization have been become stronger. We will look at the impact of globalization from the perspective of different countries focusing on some large developing countries such as India, China and Brazil as well as small countries such as Guatemala and Rwanda. The analysis of this diversity will help us explore variation among different types of developing countries, the rise of emerging powers in the global economy, and the changing definitions and effects of development in the world.
