Colleges and universities are not meeting industry needs for graduates trained in the use or implementation of computer-aided design and manufacturing systems since few schools have experience in teaching CAD/CAM. Furthermore, many Bachelor's-level graduates are going directly into industry, rather than pursuing graduate degrees, thereby compounding this problem. Members of this panel represent both schools and industry and together attempt to outline approaches to developing more extensive CAD/CAM emphasis in education, including- the role colleges and universities can or should play in addressing industry needs in this area- user- and implementor-oriented CAD/CAM education- CAD/CAM education as an integral part of university engineering curricula- problems encountered in organizing and implementing CAD/CAM curriculum- universities' relationships with *** is our hope that panelists' experiences will help guide schools in structuring CAD/CAM programs to best insure that the United States remain at the forefront of technology and compete industrially *** PuhlVictor LangerDonald P. GreenbergMark S. ShepardHerb VoelckerUniversities' Relationships With IndustryFrank PuhlAmerican industry needs engineers who have been brought up with the realization that computers are intimately involved in all aspects of design, analysis, and manufacturing. Industry, of course, needs engineers who are already trained in fundamental CAD/CAM principles and in solving real world problems using computers, as well as those who have been taught to be productivity- and *** help meet these needs, we must now provide answers to several significant questions:What part should industry play in encouraging and sponsoring research and education in CAD/CAM?How can we resolve conflicts between industries' “trade secrets” and universities' “open research”?How can industry and educational institutions work together to increase U.S. productivity so as to regain our compe
