Abstract :
At Marquette University we have begun offering continuing education courses tailored for individual industry participants. This program stems from the strong industrial partnerships that we have developed through our undergraduate and graduate co-op and internship programs. The continuing education format allows for more practicing engineers to participate, more faculty involvement with industry, and courses that are custom-designed to meet the needs of individual industries.
