the field. This year’s DEC Program consists of six technical sessions
of paper presentations organized by topic areas. Specifically: New
Topics and Content in Design Courses; Methods to Aid Learning;
Building in Design and Advanced Manufacturing; Creativity and
Innovation; Thinking in Design; and, Design Education Innovation.
The conference Technical Program will provide the times and

Engineering Girl Scout badge involving DED industry and academic
members. The first Girl Scout badge workshop was held in Boston
with enthusiastic participation by DEC members and industry
practitioners. Join us at the DEC technical committee meeting for a
