Utah State University boasts of being located in one of the most beautiful valleys in the Rocky Mountains. But that is definitely not the main reason why this 120 years old institution attracts students. Rather than the beauty of surrounding nature, Utah State University relies on its reputation of intellectual and technological leadership and progressive teaching and research – represented for example by the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE).

Many college professors live for their research. The charismatic Associate Professor Kelly Cohen of the University of Cincinnati’s Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics Department is a shining example. He wanted to attract more students by offering courses they find compelling. “My first priority was getting students excited about working with controls… and getting to touch and feel.” To get that touch and feel, he required new equipment. When students experience engaging hands-on experiments, they become excited and want to take his courses. And when there are more students applying, he says, “I can become selective.”

With the goal of preparing students for real-world engineering, the Department of Engineering Technology at Praire View A&M University (PVAMU) is committed to building state-of-the-art laboratories where students can learn firsthand from the most recent technology what they will need in their careers. The major obstacle in realizing this goal, only too well known to many other universities, is obtaining necessary funds.

East Tennessee State University, which has a history of teaching engineering technology dating back to the 1930s, made the decision to expand the course offering in 2015 to include a BSc in General Engineering which combines courses from mechanical, civil and electrical engineering. To teach the course they needed an engineering laboratory that had the equipment to practically teach the principles of civil and mechanical engineering. There were existing electrical engineering laboratories, to serve the BSc, in the electrical engineering technology program. After going out to bid, TecQuipment won, based on a balance between price and functionality of the equipment.

Recently one of the USA’s largest engineering schools, Texas A&M University, invested in a new engineering education complex that would revolutionize the way they teach their 20,000 engineering students. One element of this new complex was a new model for laboratories that would allow them to fully utilize equipment and space by creating “common labs”, shared facilities within Zachry Engineering Education Complex completed in 2018. The new building was only part of the story; they invested heavily in new teaching equipment to be housed in this facility, including a vast range of practical engineering teaching products from TecQuipment.
