structured such that individualteams had the opportunity to develop and execute their own research plan with aid from facultyand graduate student mentors. Students were also provided access to key community memberswith insight to local trail needs. The project culminated with a volunteer workday in whichstudents from across the campus community gathered to implement the new surface treatment,spending one day resurfacing approximately 0.2 miles of the Geo Trail adjacent to the OregonTech Klamath Falls campus. First-year students developed technical and professional skillsthrough involvement in a real-world project, but there were challenges in managing a project ofthis magnitude. Students continue to be involved in furthering understanding of the

(SU) and the College of Science and Engineering (CSE) want to expandglobal engagement opportunities for students and faculty. Additionally, the Office of GlobalEngagement and CSE aim to develop partnerships with the members of the InternationalAssociation of Jesuit Engineering Schools (IAJES). However, challenges exist for both studentsand faculty to participate in global programs. Students face multiple barriers, including potentialimpacts on time to graduation, cost, and competing summer plans, such as internships andathletics. Faculty teach heavy course loads and limited resources exist to support development ofco-curricular activities. This pilot collaborative international engineering project provided ashort-term global engagement

Alternatively, the dealer offers a24-month lease plan that has a single up-front payment of $35,000 plus a refundable initial depositof $2000. Under both options, the initial deposit will be refunded at the end of month 24. Assumingan annual interest rate of 6% but compounded monthly. a. Draw CFD of Standard Lease (SL) option. b.

plans and settled for a simpler device.One of the challenges with an open-ended module like this is that some of the students will choseto do the simplest possible device, which might not lead to a meaningful learning experience.Since there were no other constraints on the device other than that it be designed to save energyand that it used the available sensors and output devices, some students designed devices thatwere not very difficult, such as turning off a light when the light sensor detects a certain level oflight.A challenge that the instructor and undergraduate assistant faced was that it took more effort toprepare for this module compared to the other experiments because there are more componentsto become familiar with, and it was
