universities such as Purdue University, University of Puerto Rico, University of South Florida,and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Some of them end up working for US Corps ofEngineers national laboratories (Acosta, 2004).Involvement in Undergraduate Research Experiences (URE) is related to considerably increasedpersistence and improved academic performance of students in science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM) disciplines. UREs have shown to promote students’ sense of project ownership,self-effectiveness, and scientific identity. The advantages derived from URE have a very good impact onminority students and their improved STEM retention (Vater, 2019).Case Studies:Case study 1: University of Cincinnati Structural

to the amount of absorbing atoms. By analyzing EXAFS oscillations, we can deriveinformation such as nearest neighbor bond length, type of nearest neighbor atom, and co-ordinationnumber of specific central atom. Using these experiments, even a very minute amount of Arseniccan be investigated. These experiments were conducted at synchrotron facilities, NationalSynchrotron Light Source of Brookhaven National Laboratory, and Cornell High EnergySynchrotron Source (CHESS).During this study, we investigate the amount of arsenic and its chemical nature in two differentplants under variety of soil conditions. Two different plants were used in this study, collard green(Brassica oleracea) and parsley(Petroselinum crispum). Plants were grown in

stimulates their interests in geotechnical engineering. By providing students withvisualization, collaboration, and simulation tools, we hope to promote the understanding ofgeotechnical experiments. Based on the laboratory results, numerical experiments are conductedto help students understand the geotechnical application. The leveraging mixed realitytechnology offers an opportunity for students to access advanced equipment in geotechnicalexperiments. The main contribution of this work is a discussion of the educational technologyand processes behind implementing a mixed reality educational game. We providedevelopmental insights and educational background to inform researchers who seek to developsimilar games.Introduction and Background

creativity, experience and knowledge to solve problems to help people. Engineers design electric cars, mobile phones, bridges and processes to clean environment and mass transportation systems to move people and goods. Engineers can choose different types of jobs such as design, manufacturing, research, testing or sales etc. A student interested in discovering new knowledge can consider a career in research. If you are imaginative and creative, design engineering may interest you. If you like computers, you can be a CAD engineer. If you like laboratory and experiments, you may choose development engineering. Engineering is also organized in traditional fields such a mechanical, electrical, civil, chemical, biomedical or computer

creating an aerospace laboratory, aerospace and rocketry program, and a rocketry team. One of the first tasks given byBASE 11 was to develop a Liquid Propellant Rocket that can reach an apogee of 150,000 ft by the year 2022. Rockets are nota modern-day invention. The first rocket designs date back to the year 1232 in early China. During that time, the Chinese wereusing rockets to prevent the advancement of Mongolian troops during the Battle of Kai-Keng (Benson, 2014). The nextdocumented milestone in rocketry came in 1926, when physics professor Robert Goddard launched the first-ever liquidpropellant rocket in Worcester, Massachusetts (Neufeld, 2016). Goddard’s invention would ultimately lay the groundwork forfuture high-altitude rocket launches
