NPSI. This increase was especially encouraging to the team of mentors. The students alsoincreased 17% in their interest in physics and attending PVAMU. The goals were to increasestudents' knowledge of the nuclear industry and increase their interest in STEM. These surveyresults indicate that the goals were met. DiscussionAccording to the students' responses in both groups, this initiative increased their interest in science.Significantly in physics, for the NPSI high school students and the young girls in the Day of Sciencegroup. It is interesting to note that some students wished for longer days for the NPSI event in 2021.It was five days long in 2020's NPSI virtual event.The mentoring team knew

After the successful completion of building this prototype and capstone project, the field testingand measurements are planned to be performed and it may expand its value and impact to thegeneral public and scientists in other fields of study. Summary and Conclusions The prototype of this floating buoy system will provide a method to

Overall, ifstudents can better understand the cost and time trade-offs of manufacturing processes, they arebetter equipped for their engineering careers in an industry setting since this understanding is a keyfactor in ensuring efficient design development.7 AcknowledgmentsThe authors would like to thank Mr. Thomas Gilman for his contributions in defining this work.References[1] Daly, S.

project has proven that designing, creating, and printing 3D molds using the TinkerCAD softwareand 3D printers is feasible. The new push system design will eliminate the granule removal issue seenin Prototype 2. The future goal is to scale up the current Prototype 3 design to produce more tabletswith a single mold. By creating the ideal prototype, the creation of tablets made from non-syntheticexcipients will be achieved and potentially allow tailoring of a new and effective drug formulations. References 1.

These conclusions drawn and strategies presented allowstudents to develop fundamental engineering skills early on in their education with the intent ofcarrying them throughout their studies. Furthermore, if students can experience a more rewarding andsuccessful time in Engineering Design I and II courses while gaining valuable experience, they willbe more confident in their abilities and choices not only in the classroom but in their careers as well.

Binomial theorem? To see how the Pascal’s triangle is related to binomial expansion, we write the coefficients of the expansions in a triangular array as follows: In this array, called Pascal’s triangle after Blaise Pascal (1623 – 1662), each entry other than the 1’s is the sum of the closest pair of numbers in the line above it. The pattern continues forever. (a + b)6 = a6 + 6a5b + 15a4b2 + 20a3b3 + 15a2b4 + 6x1y5 + y6 6 6 6 6 6 = a6 + ( ) 𝑎5b1 + ( )a4b2 + ( )a3b3 + ( )a2b4 + ( )a1b5 + b6 1 2 3 4 5 Binomial Theorem
