An internationalfaculty member pursuing a career in academia is usually faced with a decision regarding the kindof position he/she plans to take. Those who love research activities will pursue a career ininstitutions that also value research activities more that teaching.

The need for integrating FE theory and application acrossthe engineering curriculum has been established and methods have been suggested by otherengineering authors 4-6 . This paper discusses the technique of designing finite element activelearning modules (ALM) across many areas of engineering and the success of these modules inimproving the student's understanding of the engineering concepts and of the finite elementanalysis technique.

In Spring 2014, the PI began recruiting students, and in Fall 2014, the programopened its doors to its first cohort. The faculty who had taken a year to design and develop thefirst year curriculum eagerly awaited their new mentees.

The range of responses becomes wider as different individuals state different ideas ofwhat self-directed learning is and how SDL might be demonstrated. We see that students createtheir own meaning, and their conceptions often overlap with our working definition of SDL butmight not be as encompassing. SDL begins to show up as choices that students might have, interms of not only what to learn but also how.Defining SDL became an ongoing process as the research unfolded and as the studentsprogressed in the curriculum.
