**EAB AND WIE OFFER HONORARIA FOR PROJECT AND ONLINE WORKSHOP IDEAS
AS PART OF NEW INITIATIVE TO ENHANCE ENGINEERING EDUCATION**

The IEEE Educational Activities Board (EAB) and the Women in Engineering
Committee (WIEC) are seeking unique hands-on project and online workshop
ideas
as part of a new initiative designed to enhance engineering education.
Entitled
"Real World Engineering Projects: EE, CE and CS Curricula," these projects
and
workshops will give students the opportunity to discover the relevance of
contemporary electrical engineering, computer engineering, and computer
science
(EE/CE/CS) problems, generate enthusiasm about the engineering profession,
and
improve student retention, especially for female students.   The projects
should
be targeted toward first-year college students, while workshops may address
teaching at all levels of an undergraduate degree program.

Winning proposals will receive a US$5,000 honoraria as well as coverage in
IEEE
publications, Web sites and conferences. Abstracts are due by 31 May 2007.

Full details including sample abstracts and submission forms can be found on
the Real World Engineering Web site at
http://www.ieee.org/web/education/university/RealWorldEngineering.
Individuals
with questions should contact Barbara Stoler, Educational Activities, at
b.stoler@xxxxxxxx or Amy Bell, initiative leader, at abell@xxxxxxx
