A section of the Mississippi River is selected as the study regionand supports a realistic case study to put engineering economic tools into practice. Commodityfreight, infrastructure, and terminal data within the selected study region are collected to providea real world information pool to support development of practical engineering economy skills inundergraduate engineering and engineering technology students. An instructor’s guide isprovided to support efficient adoption in the classroom. Successful completion of the case studywill give students an opportunity to

should have a voice in the project scope and design features, as they will be the main users and beneficiaries of the infrastructure improvement or addition. Addressing this key element in the project process, which provides a forum for the residents of the community to express their opinions, may result in a heightened approval or acceptance of the project proposal. This claim is also supported by Dulaski (2013), “Local citizens are a critical part of the (engineering senior design) project success and must be included” [3].  Having just one project advisor, the university faculty member, for assisting the students with the technical aspect of the project design, may not be the most efficient

, USAAbstract Robustness and resilience are often thought of in terms of a system's capacity to maintainfunctionality in the face of external perturbations. Robustness is one of the major issues forcomplex networks. The robustness of the network is evaluating if the network's normal functionsare affected in case of an external perturbation. Improving the robustness of any network systemrequires analysis of its vulnerability to external perturbations1. The outcome of the analysis wouldbe the solution for random failures or adversarial attacks happening to an element of the network.The main focus of this paper is to study the evolution of evaluating the robustness of complexnetworks, specifically, the vulnerability of the clustering of the network

The advantage of using Raspberry Pi units is creating a configurable isolated sandboxfor security hands-on exercises without affecting the current lab infrastructure.The corner stone in cybersecurity education is offering a set of engaging projects and exercises bywhich the students get hands-on experience to reinforce concepts covered in the classroom.

Over the past decades, EE has now evolved toEntrepreneurially Minded Learning (EML), which is an educational framework that seeks todevelop an inquisitive approach through active, experiential, and problem-based learning thatemphasizes innovation and creating value.

This studyconcentrates on individual adaptability, focusing specifically on the adaptability of early-careerengineers. Individual Adaptability Theory stands out as the most comprehensive and frequentlyreferenced framework in literature for considering adaptability supports and barriers [18].Individual Adaptability Theory posits that an individual’s capacity for adaptability is dynamicand influenced by previous experiences, contextual (e.g., sociocultural) influences, and personalcharacteristics.
