American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Building Bridges – Spanning the gap between the classroom and professional practiceOne of the ABET Inc. civil engineering program requirements is for the curriculum to preparegraduates to design a system, component, or process in at least two civil engineering contexts.Additionally, ABET Inc. requires the curriculum to include a culminating major engineeringdesign experience that incorporates appropriate engineering standards and multiple constraints, and isbased on the knowledge and skills acquired in earlier course work. While there are various ways toaccomplish these requirements, many programs use a capstone design project or experience. Thepaper outlines how the civil engineering program at

In this paper the efforts of the author tointroduce service learning to an undergraduate thermodynamics course will be presented. For thispurpose, communications with the following museums were initiated: Powerhouse Science Center,Roseville Utility Exploration Center, and Aerospace Museum of California.

Currently projects involving five engineering disciplines are being pursuedwith undergraduate and graduate students being advised by faculty members from across thecollege. We are utilizing many of the instructional modes available to us spanning from a singleunit independent study to a master’s thesis. This paper details one of these projects, highlightingthe multidisciplinary nature of the energy field and the quality of the student experience.IntroductionRenewable energy is a topic of increasing importance for students in several

While the studentswork individually on the displays for each unit, they collaborate with peers in the class tobrainstorm ideas, improve drafts and evaluate the final projects. Engineered systems that studentshave selected to explain include clocks, LED lights, bicycle gears, stethoscopes, games,thermometers, wind turbines, photovoltaics, and more. The course syllabus is provided inAppendix A.In addition to the projects, each unit includes introductory lectures related to engineering,sketching lessons and exercises, hands-on building projects, and reverse engineering activities.The following

Analyzing the motivations of participants in these programs reveals that womengravitate towards projects that allow them to become a “global professional” and “make adifference” while men want to “make a difference” by working on “exciting immersive real-world projects.” Thus, women seem to prefer projects that make a difference to other peoplewhile men choose work that they personally find to be exciting.
