Augustine, vice chair ofthe board and CEO of Lockheed Martin Corp., the strategic leader in aerospace companies worldwide, graced the campus Nov. 6, as executive-in-residence ofthe lacocca Institute and College of Engineering and Applied Science. Augustine's jam-packed day of activities began with a discussion on the integrated learning experience with students ofthe Integrated Product Development (IPD) program, which features interdisciplinary teams of faculty and students from three colleges working on industry-sponsored projects. His day ended with his presentation, "Expectations of College Graduates in a Changing Corporate Environment." "The IPD program is a great one. To succeed today you have to work as a team," said Augustine. "And these students were given just that, a firsthand real world experience." At the project presentation, Augustine observed the three final projects and met with the student designers; corresponding businesses and IPD .faculty; John Ochs, professor of mechanical engineering and mechanics; Berrisford Boothe, associate professor of art and architecture; and Todd Watkins, assistant professor of economics. The products included a plastic electric violin, designed by Samuel P. Kim '98, architecture; Daniel J. Ochs '98, mechanical engineering; and Timothy J. McCann '97, finance, for Neo Products Inc.; a pen-mouse, designed by Douglas Mento '97, chemical engineering; Brian Slocum '97, English; and Evan Corwin '98, art, for Competitive Technologies Inc.; and a Corian lounge chair designed bj' Chris Stengel '98, art; Gabe Grifoni '98, business; and Ben Light '98, mechanical engineering, for Matthew Hoey Designs. Augustine, clearly impressed with the products, was also genuinely interested in discussing them with the students, faculty and business representatives. Remarks such as Grifoni's, "The project covered all aspects of learning, such as design, business and working together," along with the professors obvious enthusiasm for the program and Rob Upton "This is so awesome, I can't believe I made this," says a proud Dan Ochs '98 (second from left) of his work on "Vengeance," the plastic electric violin which he helped design for Neo Products Inc., Warminster. Standing around him are (left to right) Norman Augustine, Pres. Peter Likins, Assistant Professor of Economics Todd Watkins and CEO of Neo Products Inc. Richard Roland. the students' pride in their work illustrated the many successes to be found within Lehigh's integrated educational program. What should college graduates expect? Says Augustine, "Be opportunistic and.be prepared." But most importantly, he adds, "Be willing to change. It's not the most intelligent that survives, it's the one that adjusts to change." "It's important to have a lot of skills to deal with the different worlds," Augustine told future engineers, listing business, marketing, art and design as several necessities. According to Augustine, Lehigh's engineering program encompasses them all. "The program is exactly right," he remarked. "It focuses on systems and trade-offs, business and engineering, teamwork and survival skills." Augustine's advice has certainly carried him to the top.
