| |
| − | The Student Technology Council has its roots in a 2004 pilot program testing the suitability of Apple Powerbook laptops for use in the engineering curriculum. Although they reported success in running Windows applications like Autodesk Inventor inside a virtual machine, the [[tablet requirement]] has held fast, then and now.

| − | | |
| − | In the fall of 2005, members of this pilot program and others formed the Student Technology Council to evaluate new hardware and software and give input to the administrators who write the College of Engineering's technology policy.
