The introduction of an interdisciplinary laboratory exposed the students to the “bigpicture” of controls systems in a nontraditional setting. The project reinforced what was taughtin lecture regarding PID type controllers and aided in understanding controls as they relate toactual systems. Students indicated that the laboratory improved their understanding of theconcepts covered in class and homework. The primary reported benefit was an increased claritybetween the relationships of the gains of a PID controller and their corresponding physicalresults.IntroductionA control theory course tends to be a less tangible subject in engineering and thus was chosen asan ideal course to

Education, 2008 Integration of Computer-Based Problem Solving into Engineering CurriculaAbstractThe primary objectives of this engineering project are (1) to examine how to develop students’problem solving and computational skills early in their program of study and (2) to furtherenhance these skills by building upon critical computing concepts semester after semester. Theproject is a component of NC State University’s quality enhancement plan, which focuses on theuse of technology in enhancing student learning. The project stems from new introductorycomputer-based modeling courses that were created in two engineering departments, and hasexpanded to include other departments. We give an overview of the

Furthermore, as robotics can have a role in directlyimproving the lives of individuals (robotics will play a major role in assistive technology, forexample) it may help draw more women into engineering. As indicators of the level of interest inrobotics among high school students, we cite the following statistics: • In 2006, over 28,000 high-school students competed in FIRST Robotic Competition and another 6,000 mostly high school students competed in FIRST Vex Challenge1. • FIRST Robotic Competition reached over 30,000 high-school aged students in 20072 and FIRST Vex Challenge projects to reach over 25,000

In spite of such widespread support and belief in the value ofundergraduate research to improve education, the bodies-of-knowledge and learning outcomescomprising of the countless ways in which students benefit and learn from being involved inresearch projects have been insufficient and understudied. Most of the existing literature revealthe predominance of program descriptions and evaluation efforts, rather than studies groundedon research. Moreover, most of these studies on undergraduate research have focused on thesciences, whereas undergraduate research experiences in engineering are limited.One of the most prominent studies on undergraduate research has been the work of ElaineSeymour and her research

As opposed to generating a series of GIS courses, the GIS know-how isintroduced within existing courses as a module that will reinforce basic concepts taughtthroughout the curriculum in a comprehensive manner. Evaluation research of a proof-of-concept prototype for geotechnical course supported the efficacy of such an approach.

Although there were not any statisticallysignificant conclusions, the results suggest that (1) having a formal application procedure, (2)choosing undergraduates based on conceptual understanding and (3) assessing undergraduatesbased largely on critical thinking lead to more undergraduates attending graduate school

The mechanical engineeringtechnology (MET) concentration was started in 2004 fall and currently we have approximatelyone hundred majors. Our students are required to take several ET and MET courses includingEngineering Fundamentals and Vibration. Our objective is to introduce hands-on projects in asmany courses as possible so that the students better understand the theory and its applications toengineering systems and components. We feel there is a great need for such projects to alleviatethe fear of mathematics in our students in courses such as Vibration. In this paper, we look atthree
