The project focuses on developing a scalable and sustainable workforce development program for microelectronics that will serve as a model for other workforce development efforts (i.e., artificial intelligence, hypersonics). In this role, she examines organizational and leadership issues that span across an ecosystem of partners within the following areas: defense, government, industry, community colleges, and universities. Dr. Linvill’s research is strategically designed to address organizational challenges and create novel solutions to those challenges.

Key differences between the junior and senior level courses arethat the senior level courses have less assigned homework and a semester-long term project.

Because tight fillet radii weaken the shaft, larger fillet radii are recommended. Thosepoints would lead to shafts that are more economical to produce and less likely to undergo fatiguefailure, without compromising key strength.IntroductionThis project arose due to difficulties with teaching and learning design of keyed joints in thecontext of a project-centered machine design course; that context is worth describing here. In thiscourse, students do a project in
