feel much more engaged in thedesign process and invested in the final design. Additionally, the rewards from communityimpact are more personally felt. A student said it best: “The BUG Coordinator was a huge assistance for us towards our project mainly because she set very few requirements and allowed us to be creative. She trusted our adjustment and allowed us to be innovative in our approach.” (Catherine van Blommestein, CBED student)Directly from the CBED student perspective, students have been very proud of their projectaccomplishments and their community impact. Some quotes from a self-reflection assignmentfor each project that revolve around connection with their partner and target community areprovided below in

Most graduate students worked on funded projects, includingconsulting-type projects, which prepared them to deal with the practical problems in engineeringand science. Communication skills

to independently research or work on a project. The professor acts as an advisor forthe project in addition to their course load, so the professors are typically already passionateabout the topic and motivated to make a difference if they are willing to put in the additional effort.While the additional time required typically brings in the most passionate professors, it doesrestrict the ability of professors to advise MIH projects in addition to their regular class schedule.The independent study approach significantly reduces the barrier for students to gain practicalhumanitarian project experience, but it also limits the training that the students can receive in thephilosophy and best practices of humanitarian engineering.

Fortenberry assertthat while researchers and educators have developed a number of classroom and college-wideassessments – oftentimes in preparation for an ABET accreditation visit – no national assessmentexist to measure engineering student learning outcomes and the instructional practices thatsupport those outcomes[2].In response, CASEE has developed two surveys to assess the extent to which engineeringstudents are engaging in identified “best instructional practices” and are achieving certainlearning outcomes desired of engineering graduates. This paper describes the validation processof the E-FSSE survey and provides some preliminary analysis of that validation process.RationaleThe CASEE questionnaires were developed in a systematic and rigorous
domain so that the result can be manufactured accordingly. Analysis tools include theability to model and simulate the kinematics and dynamics of mechanisms, Finite ElementAnalysis and Computational Fluid Dynamics. On the CAM side, sophisticated tool pathgeneration programs are available for 5-axis machining and for tool path simulation andoptimization. In addition specialized CAM modules are also available for programming multi-spindle and turret turning centers. Engineers and technologists must also cope with diverse andcomplex organizational structures for the design and production teams in which they mustfunction which strongly impacts the management of CAD/CAM data.

from minority student population groups [15].Prior researchers have noted the benefits of REU in improving the research competencies ofundergraduate students [4] [12]. However, it has also been suggested that students are sometimesconfused as to whether they should continue in academia or get some experience in the industrybefore deciding about graduate school [16] [17]. To that end, REU sites provide a great platformfor students to understand what graduate school and research look like, opportunities thereafter,and how to prepare for them. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the impact of differentprofessional development activities in a REU program on overall student experiences andoutcomes. More specifically, this paper presents a
