initiate research for courses at community college level. For furtherclarification, two subjects are discussed which were researched and published with the helpof SUNY Erie college (ECC) – Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET) students. First subject was the “Failure in Engineering of the Crashed Flight 3407 Aircraft,”which was later published in the Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Automation(JMEA) in June 2016 [6]. The article discusses the engineering issues of the Flight 3407airplane and its crash in Clarence, NY on Feb 12, 2009, reviewing the low power-to-weightratio of the airplane and its inadequacy with respect to the de-icing system of wings in badweather conditions. The article also discusses the inherently flawed propeller

undergraduate introduction to nanotechnology course at an engineering college. A 3-creditspecial topics course was conducted where the traditional lecture and exam format wascomplemented by lab sessions in which undergraduate students researched a topic of their choicein nanotechnology, and subsequently designed, built and taught engineering design challengessuited for late elementary and middle school students in a family science setting. Theundergraduate students first learned to explore new topics while performing a literature reviewon their nanotechnology topic. They then distilled core concepts and societal and technologicalimplications of their topics as they designed their pre-college engineering design challenges.Finally, students learned to
