Abstract
The ideal new hire should be strong in fundamental principles and contemporary engineering practices. With the complexity of CAD tools increasing rapidly care should be taken to not over-emphasize practices. Basic principles must not be sacrificed for the teaching of engineering practices, especially in introductory level courses where the principles are prerequisite to many courses in the curriculum.
