Engineers Meet: Education in China and the United
States
On
Wednesday, June 13, 2007, the NJ Section Professional Activities Committee and
Graduates of the Last Decade will host a meeting to discuss Professional
Activities for Engineers. Our subject
will be “Education in China and the United States.” Our guest speaker will be a surprise.
About
the Meeting
The
discussion will be about education in China and the United States. We might even make a comparison. Surely we will discuss the recruiting efforts
of American colleges in foreign countries, the promises, results and how it
affects the foreign student. Are the
promises ever kept?
The
meeting will be relatively informal with time for open discussion. All are encouraged to attend and invite your
associates.
About
the Speaker
If
you wish to meet the speaker you will just have to come to the meeting.
Our
guest speaker will be a young women engineer with a BSEE from Beijing, China, a
MSEE and an MSME from one of the local state colleges. She is going to share her experiences with
those of our Section.
All
Welcome!
Members
and students from other professional societies and engineering disciplines are

This course covers the

5700+ Project related jobs in the New York area daily! Using Microsoft Project,
you completed projects in construction, engineering, information technology,
marketing or finance. When you see a niche in the market place, you write a
business plan. Then you get finance for your startup. Setting up a website, you are now selling to
6 billion world customers. You will be the next Ebay, MySpace or YouTube
billionaire$$$.
How do you do this? Do you have to learn HTML, JavaScript, Flash,
or PHP? Do you worry about the
accounting and legal issues? How do you get all the eyeballs? What is the catch? This course will provide detailed case
studies of 8+ countries on their success stories using e-commerce. It covers the complexity of dealing with
business partners, competitors, customer retention, and payment issues. In the continental Europe, there are 50
e-discount airlines since 1996! Yes anyone can start a web e-business, but
there is no guarantee of success.

can manage projects more effectively or you can start your own e-business. You
will receive the IEEE certificate of completion when you finish the course.
