To expose students to a diverse set of future career opportunities available to STEM PhD holders.With an immersive training experience in mind, the SciComm program integrated a variety ofknowledge-based learning activities about communication, practice with communicating, andpractical experience communicating with various audiences. Program participants also engagedwith peers, practitioners, and professionals throughout the program. The program curriculum included three primary components: a) bi-weekly seminarmeetings, b) communication challenges, and c) mentorship by University alumnus/a. The threecomponents were designed to integrate hands-on learning and practical application to helpstudents

The following sections review educationalefforts to date, summarize main directions for AM education, and promote areas for inclusion ofengineering education research within the emergence of AM education.Chronological Review of AM Education EffortsThe literature on Additive Manufacturing Education is scarce, likely due to the recent emergenceof both the disciplines of AM and Engineering Education. The first effort and suggestion ofincluding Rapid Prototyping into the engineering curriculum was proposed by Bohn in 1997 [6].The emphasis on the need for integrating aggressive prototyping into the

The NRT /IGERT program highlights a national need for innovation in the graduate space, and manyadvances have been funded by this program. However, after searching the literature and studyinggraduate curricula from other engineering education departments, the authors were unable find agraduate curriculum that had been designed following an outcomes-based, backward

curriculum design project that students deliver both as a written document and as aposter presentation.Two major challenges have arisen in converting this course for an online audience. Onechallenge lies with the content itself and the second challenge lies in a core aspect of the teachingphilosophy.What about the content is challenging to convey online? The essence of ENE 506 is the abilityto align various aspects of curricular design into one unified whole. The goal is for students tosee how aspects of what is learned (content) map to how to measure learning (assessment) andhow students practice that learning (pedagogy). This process, which is at the heart of the course,is a very holistic, integrated, iterative process. However, the learning

The results of this survey were then compared to the resultsof a similar survey taken by domestic engineering graduate students and international engineeringgraduate students studying in the U.S. Findings indicate that there are statistically significantdifferences between U.S. domestic engineering graduate students with international engineeringgraduate students for most of the engineering writing attitudinal factors studied, indicating thatinstructors should begin to tailor approaches differently for individual students. From a researchperspective, we will continue to use these findings to investigate and illuminate cultural variationsthat can influence the writing process.IntroductionWriting is an integral aspect of
