Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Virginia and the Associate Dean of Research and Graduate Programs. A native Virginian, she received her Ph.D. from Georgia Institute of Technology in 1992 working in the area of heat transfer in diesel engine cylinder heads. She then served as a Visiting Scholar and a Visiting Lecturer at the Uni- versity of California at Berkeley from 1993-1994, where she developed her interests in microscale heat transfer and aerogels while working in the laboratory of Chang-Lin Tien. In 1994 Pam joined the Mechan- ical and Aerospace Engineering Department at UVA where she received a National Science Foundation CAREER award in 1995, was promoted to Professor in 2004, was named

and a physiology textbook. The course software Blackboard is heavily used in presenting this course. AllPowerPoint lectures are posted online. Many of the lectures have an accompanying online quizas is detailed below. The external links section contains a number of articles from varioussources on MEMS devices, tissue engineering, biosensors, imaging, and sustainability. Thereare also links to websites that discuss these topics. This permits students to be exposed to agreater variety of engineering applications that may be of interest to a subset of the students. The students are from the disciplines of aerospace, mechanical, electrical, chemical, andindustrial engineering and materials science. At this time, civil and

for those students who have already completed the program, totrack their interest level and possible influence the program had on their interests.IntroductionSaint Louis University (SLU) started a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Programin Bioengineering with a consortium of faculty in the Departments of Chemistry, BiomedicalEngineering, Aerospace & Mechanical Engineering, Psychology, and Pharmacological andPhysiological Sciences. Funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), the goal of theprogram is to provide early undergraduate students (entering first- and second- year students)with real examples of bioengineering career options (both research and industry) to sustain theirinterest in engineering through their early

the model that Purdue has, short trips might be the best way to begin. Two to fourweeks would be a good start for a small group of bioengineering students to travel toanother country and interact with students there. A good example of this type of trip is aninitiative in the aerospace engineering department at Arizona State Univerisity – studentsfrom ASU collaborate with students from ITESM’s Monterrey campus to complete theirSenior Design projects. They communicate via teleconference and email throughout theyear and then spend three weeks together to assemble and present their completedproject. If relationships such as this could be initiated for the other disciplines, thatwould beneficial; the potential for positive cultural and

for study andcommunication in fields as diverse as biomedical engineering, electronics, aerospace,architecture, and archeology.1 For the purposes of the COSMM lab, we are particularlyinterested in using the layerwise nature of RP as a means to create objects with “impossible”geometries. The inverse of the desired shape is produced via RP, which is then used as anexpendable mold to create the final geometry in an appropriate material. Examples include softpolyurethanes/silicones to simulate tissue, as well as gelatin compositions which serve as thescaffold for tissue engineering. Beyond complex geometries, layerwise manufacturing enablesthe creation of objects with multiple materials or gradients. Student projects have includedvarying the

emphasis onbiomechanics and microcirculation. It was established as a joint effort between the Departmentof Applied Mechanics and Aerospace Engineering and the School of Medicine. Initially, therewere no specific courses offered in bioengineering, and undergraduate students took courses inmath, physics, chemistry, biology, physiology, fluid mechanics and continuum mechanics tofulfill the major requirements. The formal Department of Bioengineering was established in1994 with a growing undergraduate enrollment which is now ~1,000 students. Students canchoose amongst four majors, Bioengineering, Bioengineering: Biotechnology, Bioengineering:Premedical, and Bioengineering: Bioinformatics. The Bioengineering and Bioengineering:Biotechnology majors are

Educational Effectiveness. Dr. Pulford’s professional background in engineering includes a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering, an M.S. in Engineering Mechanics, and a B.S. in Aerospace Engineering as well as industry experience as an aircraft engineer. Her research and professional interests include faculty development, innovations in engineering communication education, engineering student learning motivation, narrative structure in technical communication, and the improvisatory skills of educators. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017 Implementation of Peer Review to Enhance Written and Visual Communication Learning in
