To be more successful in their studies and careers, studentsneed a foundational knowledge about models. An adaptable
discovery of needs, the students get involved in proposing a feasibleand viable solution to the problem by adopting the engineering design process, prototypebuilding, testing, and final implementation of the design. Since the courses provide acomprehensive engineering design experience, it covers three of the five ABET student outcomecriteria for the year 2019-2020, i.e., outcomes 2, 3, and 5 [14].The capstone course models may range from need-based product designs to basic research. Froman engineering technology perspective, the need-based product design approach, in general, isadopted for the course. It is well known that teaching capstone design courses is different fromother traditional courses. Solving an open-ended design project involves
coding for front-end page structuring and design. The mainalgorithm is coded in the Python programming language (Python 3.7), and uses Django as the webframework and MySQL for back-end manipulation and logical processing. A combination of all theseprogramming tools allows for the development of different functionalities for executing AGPprocedures such as uploading files, saving files, processing and displaying content. The website ishosted on university server space with a Windows 2019 server running IIS as the web server.

when they entered the CM program during their junior year at CWUand then compared their respective conflict management styles across gender. The researchersused this analysis to detect differences in the male and female conflict management styles whileenrolled in CWU’s four-year, campus based, American Council for Construction Education(ACCE) accredited CM program. The results of the TKI were evaluated through a series ofstatistical analyses. TKI paper-based questionnaires were distributed to 50 junior-level males and21 junior-level females over a five-year period from the winter of 2014 to the spring of 2019.The TKI scores were tallied and documented in order to determine each student’s conflictmanagement style during their junior year and to

There is an increasing demand for doing everything onlinewhether it is in our work or private life and this increase is responsible for this explosion of databeing created. In conjunction, we also employ smart devices that are continuously connected tothe internet and produce constant streams of real-time data about things that range from ourheartrate to our current location.

This paper explores the journey of introducing engineeringinto an institution that has a 96-year history as a liberal arts institution and which only introducedits first professional degrees in the past six years. Each of
students live at home or in off-campus housing, which often makes itdifficult for them to participate in co-curricular and extracurricular activities. Many students donot have time to spend much time outside of class on campus, leading some to feel littleconnection with other students. About 80% of UVU’s students will remain in their communitiesand pursue employment in this region [2].One of the hallmarks of the institution in the past three decades has been its rapid growth andtransformation in response to the tremendous demographic and economic changes in the serviceregion. Utah County has been one of the fastest growing regions in the country with itspopulation increasing from 263,590 in 1990 to 663,590 in 2019[3]. New minority populations(18
have pushed for curricular changes inthe integration and teaching of engineering economy for graduates to be adequately prepared forindustry [1][4]. In particular, Rogers [1] summarizes the outcome of the ABET and ASEE studies.The ABET study found that there were inadequate levels of preparation for graduates in problemsolving, communicating and working in teams, and understanding the culture in which they work.Furthermore, the ASEE study noted inadequacy in knowledge, skills, and abilities in engineeringpractice for graduates in areas such as project management, economics and business, teamwork,decision-making, and critical thinking. As such, different teaching approaches of engineeringeconomy are being applied to help with the preparation of
