The paper concludes with lessons learned, and provides recommendations for thefuture when we return to normal in-person instruction.317 – Numerical Methods is a three semester credit course that, until recently, was a required course for allmechanical engineering students at our university [1]. 317 has been replaced as a required course by 117 –Introduction to Programming for Engineers, and is now an applied elective course. 317 focuses on numericalmethods to (i) solve a system of linear or non-linear equations, (ii) fit a linearized fitting function, (iii

sessions were held online and weekly recitation sessions wereoffered both in person and online. We leveraged Matlab live scripts in the homeworkassignments to integrate the mathematical and graphical representations of the fluid mechanicsproblems in Fall 2020, which as shown in recent studies can decrease the cognitive load forstudents during their work with abstract mathematical concepts [1]. Furthermore, to address thechallenges that students face in terms of motivation and engagement in an online mode ofdelivery we developed team-based “scavenger hunt” missions around everyday fluid mechanicalconcepts and systems that students typically encounter all around them. This decision is based onresearch that shows motivation is driven by the

Rutar and Mason [6] introduced first-year undergraduate students to thecollaborative nature of university engineering designs by forming a learning communitycomprised of first-year students and students from a high school technology course.In this paper, we present the Engineering Mentorship & Bridging Education Resources(EMBER)[7] program. It is a bridging program with a purpose of easing the transition for highschool graduates joining the university as first-year students in the 2020 Fall Semester. Ouroverarching

, internships, undergraduate research, and service learning arerecognized as “high-impact” experiences [1]. While institutions may include high-impactexperiences as part of the curriculum, they can also be accommodated through co-curricularprogramming models. For example, at the University at Buffalo, the School of Engineering andApplied Sciences has an Engineering Intramurals program that brings together students frommultiple engineering disciplines to work on problems from industry, community groups, andtechnical competitions.While co-curricular activities can include a wide array of activities that occur outside of thecurriculum, the interest in this work is on co-curricular activities that would be relevant to theprofession.

capstone course. It utilizes skills and knowledge acquired in various courses in the curriculum and general education courses to produce a real-life project. In this course, students follow a faculty driven structured process to integrate various components of a project. This course introduces very little new material, rather it helps the student to synthesize skills and knowledge learned in other courses to apply in real-life situations. Prerequisite(s): Department Approval, Upper Division Status, recommended in the final semester, CON357, ARC 364 and CON401W. Level: 400 Credits:3 (FSC Website) The syllabus adapted for the course in 2017 guided students to demonstrate integration ofthe various skills for

Three factors arein need of consideration, the role of events and related cases that occur in the life world, howartifacts play a role in these events, and how these events and artifacts need to be integrated intocase-based analysis. The 3 levels of cases discussed above can help integrate historical, current,and potential cases and issues into engineering and ICT Ethics classes through the use of levels ofcases.3. Genuine Substances, Objects and Artifacts How objects and artifacts are defined plays an important role in the case-based methoddeveloped in this analysis. There are two fundamental approaches to objects and artifacts that caninfluence case-based analysis. The first approach is concerned
