lessons learned from this pilotevent.BackgroundEducators and industry alike have well documented their concerns about the future ofengineering in the United States due to a decline of engineering graduates.1 Increasing thenumber of engineering graduates requires both an increase in the number of students choosing tostudy engineering as well as an increase in engineering student retention. Engineering programshave struggled with retention issues for decades with many programs reporting that 30-40% ofstudents leave engineering after the freshmen year. Numerous studies indicate the many factorsthat impact retention in engineering, including (specific to this paper) a student‟s knowledge of

simulation software takescare of the details of the mathematical models and numerical techniques so that the user (studentor non-expert engineer) only needs to be concerned with the essence of relevant concepts toapply the technology intelligently and effectively. Methods In order to support the goal of guiding undergraduate engineering students towards a more“expert” approach to simulations, this effort seeks to:1. Identify and formalize an expert approach in simulation that is valid across various applications in finite-element analysis (FEA) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD).2. Incorporate this expert approach into simulation exercises in three Mechanical Engineering courses at our university and evaluate the resultant impact on

IntroductionThe NASA – MSFC’s (Marshall Space Flight Center) University Student Launch Initiative(USLI) program involves undergraduate students in the design, building, and testing of reusablerockets with associated scientific payloads. USLI is a competitive rocket and payload-buildingchallenge designed for university students. The initiative is intended to encouragestudents to pursue careers in engineering or science related fields. This unique hands-onexperience allows students to demonstrate proof-of-concept for their designs and givespreviously abstract concepts tangibility. It requires an eight

The engineering design process is a systematic problem solvingmethod and is the key element of the field of engineering. Engineering design has the potential tointegrate science, technology and mathematics concepts for students and is essential fordeveloping technological literacy 2. For over a decade now, experts have been calling for a pushto increase technological literacy of our Nation’s K-12 students 3-7.While a demand for technological literacy is loud and clear, many young people are unpreparedto make informed decisions in our democratic society regarding the development of newtechnologies

-bordercollaboration has been made possible due to the availability of a larger pool of researchers, thispresents challenges to U.S. competitiveness in high technology areas and to its position as aworld leader in critical S&E fields. Within the US the proportion of Natural Sciences andEngineering (NS&E) degrees as a share of total degrees conferred in US has declined byapproximately eight percent from 2002 to 2007 [1]. There is evidence to suggest that some of thisdecline can be attributed to the student attrition during their first one or two years from thescience and engineering programs.Previous studies have indicated that significant student attrition or “switching” from science andengineering educational programs to other fields occurs during

As with any innovation of this kind not only are student attitudesto them important but so are those of the faculty who teach mainstream subjects. Takingtogether the research undertaken at the time suggests that liberal studies were somewhatmore successful than they might have been.The system of third level education in England and Wales circa 1955 [1]In the British Isles there are five different education systems that are separately managed.In addition to the republic of Ireland there are four systems in the United Kingdom (UK)viz England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and

All othercourses are defined as third level. The higher education level embraced a university sector(private) and a public sector funded primarily by Local Education Authorities (LEA‟s). It is withdevelopments in higher education in the public sector that this paper is concerned.At that time the education system in England and Wales was highly selective. A simplifiedmodel of the system is shown in exhibit 1. After primary school the student was directed to oneof three types of school.

Subject of Process Modeling and Design: A Compelling Education Module It is widely accepted that educational outcomes are more successful when students have akeen interest in the subject, and this typically happens when the subject is something near anddear to them. It is also widely acknowledged that most college student show a keen interest inbeer. In our experience with students in engineering, this often translates into an interest in thebrewing process and at times has culminated in students engaging in home brewing. It is naturalthen to use this interest to engage students in educational exercises around one or more aspects ofbrewing technology.[1, 2] In the Department of Chemical Engineering at Villanova University,we have

(2) Fullprofessors feel that they maintain a good balance between their teaching and scholarly activitiesand incorporate their research into teaching. (3) The faculty perceive different levels ofperformance expectations from the university, college and departments.

Thus, we assessed the impact of anintensive training intervention in the knowledge and work practice of a sample ofengineers within a large Engineering-Procurement-Contractor (EPC) firm. A board ofadvisors was brought together with senior managers from the firm for the intensivetraining intervention in order to: 1) define the goals of the training intervention; 2)oversee the implementation of the intervention; and 3) provide feedback to the firm basedon the results of this study.

Burruss, Billings, Brownrigg, Skiba, and Connors (2009) remarked onclass size and “minimal research at the postsecondary level” (p. 38). The authors go on to saythat the number of online students is increasing and with a shortage of faculty class sizes areincreasing. Colwell and Jenks (2004) added “Faculty can face pressures from administration to“maximize” class sizes in online courses to make them more efficient or profitable” (p. 1).

This problem is exacerbated by thewidely different class-sizes and physical resources in all seven campuses in the Dalhousieprogram. In order to help engineering faculty in Atlantic Canada adopt new teaching styles,guidance for PBL teaching in the first year is essential.

The major objective of the first semester was the preparation of a formal designproposal.
