, students developedappropriate design requirements to meet their customer’s needs, and then moved through theiterative design process to create and verify their developed solutions. This iterative processculminates in the development of a complete fabrication plan and final prototype (Figure 3).Teams were provided with a design control spreadsheet template to assist with requirementstraceability. This “master” spreadsheet captures traceability throughout the design process(customer requirements to final prototype). Teams also developed a concept of operations(CONOPs) diagram, a system diagram, and a functional decomposition diagram. In the contextof our course sequence, these diagrams were intended to help students identify and organize thesystems

To master position verification, students must be able to readinformation from a drawing and produced part, determine the maximum material condition(MMC) of a hole, determine the actual size of a hole, calculate the allowed position tolerance,determine the X & Y deviations of the hole, calculate the actual position tolerance, and make anaccurate decision whether to accept or reject the position. This paper will give an overview oflocating holes with the position tolerance vs. conventional tolerancing, present data from theGD&T class over a seven-year period and describe trends in student performance related toposition

However, GradCO uses the NationalAssociation of Colleges and Employers’ (NACE) Career Readiness framework. These twoframeworks have significant overlap; however, to address the needs of all stakeholders, weevaluated our catalog of workshops against both. The literature related to libraries and careerreadiness is heavily focused on public, school, and community college libraries’ work with highschool students. Research tends to focus on preparing students for careers in industry and/orsuccess in college. There is a significant gap in the literature about the use of career readinessframeworks to prepare Masters and PhD students for

or three extrayears of practice may be needed to truly “master” their profession[3]. This leads to graduatesfeeling inadequate and unsupported and puts the burden of learning these missing skills onthem[4] as they enter the workforce.Before talking about possible solutions to closing this skill gap, we need to identify which skillsindustry views recent graduates are missing when entering the workforce. Many investigationshave occurred to try and identify the missing skills. One such survey found that “a candidate’sdemonstrated capacity to think critically, communicate clearly, and solve complex problems ismore important than their undergraduate major”[5]. Problem solving, particularly applyingknowledge in real-world settings, is frequently
success of Industry 4.0 [1, 13].Beyond simulation, familiarity with computational tools to perform tasks such as data analysis isbecoming increasingly important. For example, AI techniques such as machine learning are beingapplied to improve efficiency and reduce waste in manufacturing [14]. A widespreadsimulation-based concept is the digital twin [1, 15]. The digital twin is a simulation built on realdata from the physical system [16]. This concept has been successfully applied to optimizewindfarm performance by General Electric and improve power system automation anddecision-making by Siemens [16].Virtual LabsThe question for educators becomes how to ensure that students not only have mastered thetheory, but can also effectively apply

It goes on to discuss creativity as invention, innovation, and thinking outside the box.While communication skills to work in teams is paramount in importance, the report alsomentions the need to master the principles of business and management, along with theprinciples of leadership.

reciprocate (behave) [31],[33].A resilient identity is adaptable and maintains a constant personal view, despite contexts thatthreaten the congruency of multiple identities and/or question the presence of the engineeringidentity, reinforcement of resilient identity development occurs in the presence of role models[16]. Role transition (exit and entry) is easier when multiple identities are considered as part ofthe resilient identity development. Resiliency is a key consideration in ultimately adopting anengineering identity, it forms the foundation for academic persistence by “mastering difficultiesthrough perseverant effort” [1]. It also enables engineers an opportunity to say they succeededagainst all odds through their educational career path to

thescope of factors and potential stakeholders that must be considered throughout the designprocess. These changes are reflected in the new ABET Student Outcomes, although the criterialisted are difficult to interpret and are often intersectional or interdependent. Examples of studentinterpretations of these design factors were included, along with proposed working definitionsfor each of these terms. It is the hope of the authors that these definitions will help to improveboth the work of students as well as aid in assessment.References[1] A. J.

If needed, the sponsoring faculty members would use the developed prototypeto conduct more advanced research such as with graduate students. The engineering technologydepartment at Texas A&M University offers a Master of Science degree in EngineeringTechnology (MSET). There can be graduate students who would continue to conduct researchwith the faculty in this master’s program. The faculty members in this paper have sponsored several capstone projects as a part of theirresearch projects. To support capstone projects from a faculty’s funded research project, one ofthe main challenges is that the research project itself is usually more
