Infrastructure Report Card and Economics Studies in the STEM ClassroomAbstractEvery four years, the American Society of Civil Engineers releases a national report card forAmerica’s infrastructure systems with the latest release occurring in March 2017. The ReportCard provides not only an assessment of our infrastructure, but also an opportunity to engage andeducate both the public and students in conversations about engineering. Beyond providinggrades similar to a student’s report card for 16 different categories of infrastructure across thecountry, the Report Card also addresses topics such as condition, capacity, resilience, and areasof innovation. Presented through a highly interactive website and mobile app, this can be aliving

Theseparameters may include routing data, collision algorithms, network structures, etc. (Fei 2009). All of thisdata is combined in some type of complex algorithm. The Kalman filter is one type of these algorithms(Alsbou 2016). The Kalman filter provides a “realistic dynamic model” of a specific event. In case ofcollision avoidance, the Kalman filter receives various inputs in the form of signals from the vehicle’ssensors and localization information from

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

In contrast,the entering student veteran ranges in age from 22-42. Some have completed courses eitheronline or acquired as part of education and training courses obtained during military service. Asa result, a fair number enter college classified as sophomores or even juniors and miss thebonding period of a freshman year.Student veterans are also accustomed to a previous lifestyle of pressure, regimented routine, andgoal orientation. Socializing with younger underclassmen is not appealing to these formermilitary members. Consequently, this cultural divide often keeps student veterans from

Additionally, researchsuggests that the degree to which the individual’s personality aligns with the dominant values ofthe environment they are in, such as an engineering program, the higher their likelihood forsatisfaction and success in that environment4.
