Here three of the engineering students, also authors of this study reviewed3D and 4D printing technologies. The undergraduate student has used these research activities forhis Engineer of 2020 requirements. Overall, these studies greatly benefit undergraduateengineering students for their future academic studies at different institutions.References1. Goh, G. D., Agarwala, S., Goh, G.

) is a 5-day program offered byMissouri University of Science and Technology (Missouri S&T) to introduce high schoolstudents to various engineering disciplines. The Intro Camp occurs at three different timesduring the summer and typically attracts incoming high school juniors and seniors. The IntroCamp was established with the following goals: (1) increasing students’ knowledge of variousengineering disciplines, (2) enhancing students understanding on how math and science relate tothe field of engineering through hands-on activities, (3) introducing the educational and researchopportunities at Missouri S&T, and (4) preparing high school students for making a thought-outdecision on choosing career or disciplines they want to

working in Kansas rather than exporting themajority out-of-state. The results from Table 3 show that WSU does a better job of producingEngineering graduates who stay in Kansas, proportionally speaking. The second observation is that there was a change in the percentage of the graduates staying andworking in Kansas after about 2015. For WSU, more than 60% of their graduates stayed in Kansasbefore 2015 while they were in the mid- to lower 50%’s after 2015. Somewhat similar trends can beseen for K-State (typically above the 42% average value vs. below average), KU (upper 30%’s vs.lower 30%’s), and the overall results for the three universities (upper 40%’s vs. lower 40%’s).

For example, a B- would be given for scores of 80 to 82.9, a B for scores of 83 to 85.9,and a B+ for scores of 86 to 89.9. However, grades of A+, F+, or F- were not awarded at WSUProceedings of the 2019 Midwest Section Conference of the American Society for Engineering Education 3under the new system.

Similar to the concept oforgan donation- every person would have the right to decide if their records are kept privatebetween themselves and their doctor(s) or if they can be used as part of a database to benefitfuture patients. With 95% of American adults supporting organ donation, there would mostlikely be a high percentage of people willing to participate in the use of medical databases [15].In order for these databases to be most efficient and beneficial it is important to be as userfriendly as possible. With millions of patient’s data compiled into a single database it will bedifficult to sift through all of it.
