EP Students are competing against students from all over the World! Survival of the fittest  Survival of the brightest Many applicants for each job opening  Average does not cut it anymore  Knowledge is power – Adapt! Be versatile & flexible  Need to differentiate (sell) yourself – What do you have to offer that others do not have?  Best practice – teamwork: All for one, ZERO for all!  For every door that closes, one will open! If it does not fit you must not quit! Seek and Thou Shall Find! 20

WHY EP ? The 10 E-Commandments  ECET (Electrical Computer Engineering Technology program)  Engineers teaching Engineering  Education of state of the art technology  Exploratory Program  Engineering teachers meet students 88 minutes each day  Engineering College transfer Credits  Experimentation via hands-on Lab Activities & projects  Expertise on Project based learning  Experience through the senior project  Enzo Paterno – ECET Teacher  21
