be addressed, which is partially open-ending [2,3].Recognizing the efficacy of project-based lab designs in fostering creative engagement anddeep learning, this modification aims to bridge the gap between traditional, instruction-centriclabs and student-directed projects. The project-based laboratory design is intended to motivatestudents towards deep learning, advanced engineering skills, and high-level learning outcomeswhile preparing them well for open-ended labs at the senior level [4,5]. In addition, studentswill work as a group and focus on provided materials (i.e., graphene oxide membrane, aerogel)in this project-based lab to encourage communication and peer learning. Moreover, theselection of materials for the project is drawn from

materials science courses.Dr. Elvin Beach, The Ohio State University ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2024Integrating Computational and Physical Lab Modules in MaterialsScience and EngineeringAbstractComputational tools play an ever-expanding role in the careers of practicing engineers. As such,in addition to physical labs, our program requires all undergraduate students to take a two-semester sequence in computational materials science called “modeling and simulation” (orModSim) focusing on practical programming skills and use of commercial CALPHAD and FEAsoftware. These courses are taught in the spring semesters of the sophomore and junior years andformatted as hands-on computational laboratory courses

classrooms and reaching engineeringprofessionals. While virtual and remote laboratories are not new to engineering education, thereis an increasing need for these alternate methods of teaching due to decreased availability of labtime (from increased undergraduate classes) and the rise of remote higher education programs,such as remote graduate degrees and continuing education [4], [5].In this study, we perform a scoping literature review to explore the tools and labs available toPSET educators. Specifically, we focus on virtual and remote tools that might aid in theeducation of continuing education students and programs with rigid curriculums that do notallow for additional lab time. We were guided by the two following research questions

has included some laboratory courses, these experiments were run largely as equipment demonstrations and/or operations. The design of experiments (DOE) concept was absent and students were merely acting as operators. Thus, the older laboratory courses were retired and/or integrated as laboratory demos during tutorial classes of relevant core courses. New laboratory courses ought to be designed where students are trained to perform their own Design of Experiments (DOE). In one of the new laboratory courses proposed, students are required to prepare their own samples, identify the types of testing and characterisations required, plan their own experimental flow/sequence, choose appropriate machines/equipment for testing and

Additionally, it presents findings from a survey studyconducted to evaluate the impact of the guest lecture initiative, involving an average class size of55 undergraduate students in each of the two courses.In Fall and Spring of 2022 and 2023, industry presentations were integrated into MSE 3021 andMSE 4022 materials properties and processing laboratory courses to enhancethe students' understanding of real-world applications and industry practices. Presenters wereinvited from diverse sectors of industry, including metal, ceramic and polymer processing(Applied

graduation, she spent five years as a Principal Scientist at Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory in Schenectady, NY researching welding and the thermal stability of structural alloys. In 2013, she joined the School of Mechanical, Industrial, and Manufacturing Engineering at Oregon State University and was recently promoted to Full Professor. Dr. Tucker served as the Materials Science Interdisciplinary Graduate Program Director for five years and recently became the Director for the Design for Social Impact Program. Her research focuses on degradation of materials in extreme environments using both modeling and experimental approaches to gain fundamental understanding of materials performance.Dr. Milo Koretsky, Tufts University
