Changes

I want to see engineering immersed in liberal arts.  Engineering students are allowed to take liberal arts courses from a bountiful selection, but liberal arts and engineering are not intertwined as well as they should be here at Union; there is a difference; there is a problem with this.  Although I believe the fundamental engineering courses are imperative to the proper education of engineers, I realize that the fundamental coursework has become the curriculum for engineers, which does not allow students to step outside of the bounds set forth by the common curriculum.  The liberal arts aspect of Union must exist with the engineering aspect, and currently it doesn't.  My idea consists the design and implementation of a project idea throughout the length of a term.  Engineering majors, economics majors, art, music and political science majors would be able to work together to bring the idea to fruition.  Each member would be able to contribute to the process of forming the idea into a well-constructed presentation.  The presenation is not a normal presentation though. I plan to have the presentations presented at General Electric Global Research Center, which is less than ten miles away from Union College.  There are eight Ge Global Research Centers in the world, and the orginal one happens to be extremely close to is less than five miles away from Union College.  Currently, there are basically no existing relations bewteen the research center and Union; I desperately want to change this.  I would like for the presentations to be held at the research center.  The research center has state-of-the-art presentation space, and many brilliant people to fill the space.  The Union College students would be able to present in front of engineering and business professionals, and would be able to acquire magnificient feedback from such professionals.

Here is In a basic outline of sense, my ideais similar to what entrepreneurs experience on their journies: *sessions held each night or every other night; different topic each night... this way, each student should be able to attend at least one*students must attend at least one session, and write a report or create some sort of project relating to the session(s) they attended
