Comment: The workshop will consider the capability of U.S. engineering curricula to educate undergraduate students in corrosion identification and abatement. The workshop participants will speak about their perspectives on whether corrosion abatement is adequately addressed in our nation's engineering curricula and, if not, what issues need to be addressed to develop a comprehensive corrosion curriculum in undergraduate engineering. The outline workshop agenda is as follows:

Session 1: Motivation: Why is Corrosion Education Important?
Session 2: Current Practices: Corrosion Education Today
Session 3: Implementation: What needs to be done to improve Corrosion Education?
