where lean methodology was implemented in highereducation, and contained practical advice, case studies, and theories about how Lean should beimplemented in higher education. The research included the psychology of lean systems,performance appraisal, job attitudes, and applied decision making (Balzer, 2010). Lean and theLearning Organization in Higher Education by David E. Francis (2014) reviewed possibilitiesfor how lean principles could be applied to university education. It focused on institutionalapplications and methods for an entire university to incorporate lean initiatives. Francispresented recommendations for organizations considering or pursuing lean implementations, orfurther enhancement of organizational learning. Dragomir Cristina

Lorenzosupport team and engineers. They successfully answered all of the students’ questions andprovided them with a manual and the latest software for the unit. By the end of this project, theteam was successful in configuring the wind-energy training unit so that it could properly chargea battery, output AC and DC for a powered light, and emulate each operation mode of acommercial Microwind turbine. The wind-energy modular training unit is a system that safelyconverts kinetic to electrical energy using the rotational motion from a wind turbine in acontrolled environment. For indoor use, a 24-volt DC motor was used to simulate the wind effecton the shaft of a generator of a traditional wind turbine.By the end of this project, the team was able to

ElectronicInstrumentationThe Setting/ProcessThe course addressed in this phase of the paper is Electronic Instrumentation (EI), which is themain electronics course taken by students outside of Electrical and Computer Engineering. Thecourse is offered each semester in two sections of approximately 60 students per section, one inthe early morning and one in the late afternoon. The course was developed in the late 1990s asone of the few general engineering courses implementing Studio-Based pedagogy with benchtopinstrumentation. Benchtop instruments were replaced by the Rensselaer Mobile Studio boardseveral years later and then to flipped instruction in 2010, again using the Mobile Studio asstudent-owned personal instrumentation. The flipped environment evolved with

Graduate Studies

Paper ID #18458 Dirk Englund received his BS in Physics from Caltech in 2002. He earned an MS in electrical engineering and a PhD in Applied Physics in 2008, both from Stanford University. He was a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University until 2010, when he started his group as Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering and of Applied Physics at Columbia University. In 2013, he joined the faculty of MIT’s Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. Englund’s research focuses on quantum technologies based on semiconductor and optical systems. Englund engages in developing new teaching methods for the STEM fields, for undergraduate and graduate students in engineering and engineering physics. Recent

is an Associate Professor of Civil Engineering and University Faculty Scholar at Pur- due University. Zavattieri received his BS/MS degrees in Nuclear Engineering from the Balseiro Institute, in Argentina and PhD in Aeronautics and Astronautics Engineering. From 2001 to 2009, he worked at the General Motors Research and Development Center as a staff researcher, where he led research ac- tivities in the general areas of computational mechanics, smart and biomimetic materials. His current research lies at the interface between mechanics and materials engineering. His engineering and scien- tific curiosity has focused on the fundamental aspects of how Nature uses elegant and efficient ways to make remarkable

Irving, Texas. His research interests are signal processing, information theory, and their applications to neuroengineer- ing and wireless communication and networks. Particular focus is on the interplay of communication systems and networks; including network coding, user cooperation, spectrum sharing, opportunistic ac- cess, and scheduling with different delay constraints as well as millimeter wave communications. In neuro-engineering, his interests are on modeling neuronal circuits connectivity and the impact of learning on connectivity, on real-time closed-loop stabilization of neuronal systems to mitigate disorders such as epilepsy, Parkinson, depression, and obesity, on developing an understanding of
