In the cases where the topics were heavily technicaland outside the typical undergraduate level of education, the material was adjusted to therequisite level of student understanding.The last and one of the most difficult challenges to overcome was that of creating meaningfullaboratory experiments, e.g. soil mechanics and concrete technology, on a campus without a civilengineering degree program. The pedagogy employed by the school is centered around a “learn-do-learn” philosophy and without hands-on learning, the students miss a major component totheir education.

Kolb[1] defines experiential learning as an iterative process involving conceptualization, activeexperimentation, concrete experience, and reflective observation. Experiential learning has alsobeen identified as an

Workers in an industry form a community whichshares and encodes knowledge, forming the basis for an identity that can be seen and understoodby future professionals. Professional societies have an important boundary spanning role to playin this cycle since they promote identity to prospective members and provide community supportfor existing professionals.The Evolution of AM as a Discipline and a ProfessionAM’s bears many hallmarks of prevailing theories [e.g., 7, 14, 15] of disciplinary andprofessional evolution from engineering and engineering technology (ET). Since mid-1900s,engineering has evolved in its technical as well as conceptual aspects. Figure 3 provides anoverview timeline of engineering
