Therefore, in thesubsequent spring semester students will receive training on key transferrable skills in a 3 credithour 600 level seminar course designed to integrate these skills with the research-related contentcovered in the foregoing 500 level course. This seminar course will train participants incommunication, teaching, funding procurement, entrepreneurship, management, teamwork,conflict resolution, mentoring, leadership, and outreach as well as ethics and research-relatedskills.

There is some minor variationin performance from year to year for these offerings.

Inorder to keep students as engaged as possible, the labs are designed to only take ~ 1.5 – 2 hours,with efficiency increased by using prelab assignments to ensure that appropriate planning hasbeen completed prior to attending. In addition, a lab notebook is required to document allexercises with an emphasis on data integrity, and ethics of recording and presentation. Althoughanalysis associated with most lab exercises is done within the lab group, the analysis from fourexercises is done individually. Combined with individual effort from the lecture portion of thecourse, 50% of the grade is individual while 50% is team based. This helps to ensure thatstudents are not simply carried by their teammates.1

senior year, recenttrends emerged to weave PBL in the first year and throughout the curriculum in semester-long projects.Students are being introduced to design methods, team dynamics and ethics in parallel with the analysis-focused courses (Dym et al., 2005). However, the systematic integration of design and analysis in coursesis still lacking (Carberry & McKenna, 2014). Some of the outstanding research questions about PBL asproposed by Dym et al. (2005) include: “What are the best proportions of problems, projects, teamwork,technology, and reality for a given state of student development,” and “how do the proportions changewith regard to the context of different engineering disciplines and institutional missions?” (p. 112).There are some
