described a detailed process for integrating a high performance content-control appliance into a process control system commonly deployed in a water treatment facility. The students’ results were transitioned to industry. 3. The research presented in Poster #3 demonstrated that microbial fuel cells can be used to detect recalcitrant organic chemicals and has the potential to monitor water quality. 4. The research in Poster #4 addressed the problem of prevention of potential onboard fires in an aircraft resulting from a high-velocity

design, strength of materials, etc.) it can bedifficult to demonstrate total system integration of multiple disciplines with diverse teams. Often,real world applications are limited by assumptions made to simplify problems so that the analysiscan be more easily performed in class. While many externships can add to the knowledge andskills of an engineering undergraduate, they may not be complementing the undergraduateprogram in order to fill student outcomes not met in the classroom.Survey of experiences During the fall semester, surveys were administered to students who had participated inexternships over the previous summer. Two programs administered the survey through an onlinesurvey program while the other two had participants fill out

of the co-op program as the primary vehicle forassessment of this learning outcome provides the additional benefits of curriculum andassessment input by industry constituents who work directly with the students.Curriculum OverviewThe School of Engineering at GVSU offers a bachelor of science in engineering degree withmajors in computer, electrical, interdisciplinary, product design and manufacturing, andmechanical engineering. The majors share a mostly common set of foundation courses, and eachundergraduate major is a secondary admission program. Criteria for secondary admission includecompletion of all foundation courses with a grade of „C‟ or better and maintaining an overallgrade point average of 2.70 or higher (on a 4.00 scale).All
