Revolution: Reasons it began in England. James Watt and the first true steamengine; use of new engines to mine more coal, produce cheaper iron. Rediscovery ofcement/concrete; setting underwater allowed development of canal system. Development ofrailroads. Cast iron as the first new structural material in thousands of years. Development ofglass technology to allow larger pieces, more windows. Concurrent developments in America;copper boom in Michigan corresponding with invention of telegraph. • On the Metamorphoses of Iron of Iron and Steel, by P.C.

detail and complete a written report.The required sections of the report include an overall introduction of the history and currentstatus of the engineering material, and an in-depth description of the structure, properties,processing, and applications (performance) of the material. To encourage a higher level ofcritical thinking, the students also evaluate current research applied to their material (either inprocessing, or altering its microstructure), and, in the process, gain an appreciation andunderstanding of recent advancements in their material using new technologies. In the secondhalf of the semester, each group gives an oral presentation with hands-on demonstrations inclass. The presentation date depends on the relevance of the selected
engineering and technology teacher, as well as several years of electrical and mechanical engineering design experience as a practicing engineer. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering from Swarthmore College, his Master’s of Education degree from the University of Massachusetts, and a Master’s of Science in Mechanical Engineering and Doctorate in Engineering Education from Purdue University.Dr. Rick Ubic, Boise State University Rick Ubic is an Associate Professor at Boise State University, where he is a member of the Micron School of Materials Science, Director of the Boise State Center for Materials Characterization, and Director if the REU Site in Materials for Energy & Sustainability.

Degree Program (DEDP). The typical distance student is enrolled in between twoand three courses each semester. Most have previously attended post-secondary institutions,some in engineering or pre-engineering programs. More than 25% of distance engineeringstudents are active military or veterans, compared to about 12% of all engineering students.Ibrahim and Morsi2 presented one of the earliest comprehensive reviews of distance Electricaland Computer Engineering programs. In a survey of over 120 programs across the UnitedStates, the authors found that most distance programs in both engineering and technology wereassociate degrees. At the time of the survey, a single responding institution offeredbaccalaureate engineering degrees at a distance

characteristics thatsatisfy the needs of future technological demands will play the most vital role in shaping theworld around us. Identifying the opportunities that exist in the field of material innovation andresearch, a number of educational entities have adopted this relatively new but broad field -Material Science, and offer educational or degree programs to increase public awareness andgenerate student interest. In 2011 approximately 1.4 % of engineering students in the USgraduated with a Material Science degree1. 1The business of making things or manufacturing, has always been at the heart of the USeconomy. After the recent wake-up call – the great recession of 2007-2009, academic, business,and
introduced to computational tools used by the professionalmaterials science community to develop their computational literacy, a skill that is becomingincreasingly important for the development of a modern workforce. The 2011 Materials GenomeInitiative called on scientists and engineers to revolutionize materials development by integratingexperiments, digital data, and computational tools [9]. Furthermore, industry [10], the NationalScience Foundation [11], and the National Research Council [12] have all identified enhancedinstruction of cyberinfrastructure concepts and preparing “technologically agile” [11] students asvital for a modern engineering workforce. Thus, it is important to incorporate computationaltools in the materials science
