Programs are currently funded in Engineering.Most REU Sites are based at a single institution. This traditional model for REU Sites typicallyinvolves 8-12 participants per summer, housed in close proximity on campus, engaged inresearch projects united by a common theme. Having a unifying theme and developing strongcamaraderie are two aspects deemed critical to a successful REU program [3].A small but growing number of summer REU programs have operated as a single programacross multiple, geographically dispersed institutions. Multi-campus Sites offer access to abroader network of researchers, exposure to multiple institutions, and immersion in an extendedresearch community working towards common goals.

A section of the survey was developed based on a pre-existing instrument by theFINS/RIESS project team [9]. The original instrument was used to examine how post-PhDresearchers view themselves as researchers as well as their feelings towards research and theresearch community [9]. Questions were adapted from this survey to apply to faculty members inour context.Survey questions asked about the researchers’ engagement with research and their currentresearch community. We related these items back to Self-Determination Theory. These questionswere scored on a 7-point Likert-style scale. The researchers were also asked to answer open-ended questions

The concept of design thinking has been studied sincethe 1970’s [1] and its teaching methods and central characteristics are quite well known [4]–[6].2.2 Design MethodsDesign thinking is a type of cognition, but it also describes the process of design, otherwiseknown as a method. In many cases the method is simply the journey the designer takesthroughout the course of design project, though some have modeled the process visually.

cancapitalize on students’ affinity for curiosity. First, recognizing that students are motivated andinterested when they are curious provides impetus to design projects and lessons to start withquestions or require students to ask questions about the topic through the Question FormulationTechnique [14]. In addition, our results showed that students often link Curiosity with the type oflearner they are, with doing hands on work, and trying new things. These relationships alsoprovide opportunities for project design. In the program at Rowan University we make aconcerted effort to engage these pieces of students’ curiosity through the projects in our first-yearengineering course.
