and aerospace engineering, and example 6 could fit anydiscipline.Even applying the ERI tool to a first-year engineering course may seem like an easier task thanusing ethics examples in a disciplinary course in the sophomore or junior year. Engineeringprogram accreditation by ABET requires that student outcome number 4, “an ability to recognizeethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments,which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental,and societal contexts” be met. A program that only includes ethics in its first and last year or in asingle course is at a disadvantage with regards to showing evidence of this outcome. The ERItool can help discover

Training covered topics and skills such as how to discussengineering with young students, effectively leading hands-on STEM activities, guiding studentsthrough the engineering process, and providing a safe space and enriching virtual learningenvironment. The training was recorded so that facilitators can refresh their knowledge and totrain new facilitators when needed.Facilitators are assigned to various roles for

Out of 45 students 34 students were on-campus, 11 studentswere online. Out of 45 students 11 students majored in computer science/cyber security. 6 studentsin informatics, and 5 in biomedical engineering. Rest of them were enrolled in different branches ofengineering at LPU for example aerospace engineering, manufacturing, web development, chemicalengineering etc. While most of our participants were full time students, some of them were part timestudents working full time outside of LPU. Some of our students reported their role as
to enable the sequentialtranslation of the concepts learned in the class toward solving a real-time problem. Thiscompetition allowed the team to experience an aerospace system life cycle design. To ensurestudent accountability and student contribution to the identified project, both to their team andtoward meeting the required class deliverables, a team infrastructure and meeting minutesdocument was provided. Students were tasked each week to submit these documents and reporttheir project progress. This helped in the early identification of dynamic team issues to be resolvedby the instructor. The project's deliverable for the class was limited to the student teams developinga preliminary design review document based on the mission Can Sat
for DASA Aerospace in Wedel, Germany 1993. His initial research also made a major contribution to the M1A1 barrel reshape initiative that began in 1995. Shortly afterwards he was selected for a 1 year appointment to the United States Military Academy West Point where he taught Mathematics. Following these accomplishments he worked on the SADARM fire and forget projectile that was finally used in the second gulf war. Since that time, circa 2002, his studies have focused on unmanned systems both air and ground. His team deployed a bomb finding robot named the LynchBot to Iraq late in 2004 and then again in 2006 deployed about a dozen more improved LynchBots to Iraq. His team also assisted in the deployment of 84

Tantawi, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Dr. Khalid Tantawi is an Assistant Professor of Mechatronics at the University of Tennessee at Chat- tanooga .

Students will beinvestigating and identifying what new business ideas these challenges will be (or currently) generating.Students were asked to identify sustainable practices and processes during their VSM mapping. At theend of the term, there was a team competition based on the deliverables of the project. In the competition,students presented their cartoon(s) and VSMs that helps to illustrate some of the challenges SC designersand users face. Student teams will also suggest up to three possible captions in to accompany eachcartoon. Sample student submitted VSM charts and Cartoons can be find in Appendix B.Project DescriptionA process map documents how work either is, or

Once more thorough development is conducted, by upgrading the capabilities of current activities and the addition of new activities, gearing towards fields such as aerospace engineer- ing, software
important. The electromagnetic (EM) wavesemitted by electronic systems may interfere with other electronic systems, resulting in performancedegradation, system failure, and even hazardous situations. It is particularly critical in safety-critical applications, such as aerospace, medical equipment, and transportation systems, where thefailure of an electronic system could have severe consequences. Almost all countries and nationsmandate that electronic systems must comply with EMC international regulations and standards.To address the growing importance of maintaining electronic system compatibility, thedevelopment of an EMC course becomes necessary. As a consultant for a student electric carcompetition team, the author often encountered a recurring
freshman-engineering course in many universities.When our university converted from quarter to semester curricula in 1999, the college ofengineering created a three-credit hour introductory engineering graphics course for first-yearstudents. This core course for mechanical, civil and aerospace engineering students is offered ineach Fall and Spring semesters with two to four instructors teaching nine to ten sections. Allstudents in this course learn (i) creative design ideation (ii) formal sketching techniques andorthographic projections (iii) CAD tools and (iv) basics of design-for-manufacturing and 3DPrinting. Students typically chose coffee mugs for their individual projects, airplanes and otherengineering structures for their team projects in
offices of GE-Aerospace, and the remaining 53 8came from 41 different sources. The survey results show that respondents recalled thatthe second highest rated math skills required by their degree to be ordinary and partialdifferential equations. Conversely, when compared to skills required on the job, theseskills were judged to be essentially the least used of the 13 listed math skills.Furthermore, the areas of statistics and numerical analysis were shown as the 6th and 9thmost common items to be part of a degree program but were rated 3rd and 4th on theusage scale.Future ActionsThe ASEE ETC sponsors and administers a visit to Capitol Hill each year during

Additive manufacturing (AM), broadly known as 3D printing, transforms how productsare designed, produced, and serviced. 3D printing is one of the key future technologies that willproduce design solutions based on specifications and constraints defined by engineers [1-3]. Thisemerging technology can be used in numerous automotive, aerospace, and medical industries.Implementing 3D printing projects in the classroom will encourage critical thinking, solvingcomplex problmes, collaborating , and engaging deeply in the learning process [4-6]. Cognitiveskills can help students to observe and reflect on the complex design problems and optimize theprocess of 3D

With the application of VR technologies, theinjury rates on the production line have decreased by 70 % [17]. This technology is also beingused to train people in service for Mustangs without having a physical model of the electricMustang Mach-E in the factory [18].The use of XR expands past the automotive industry and goes into aerospace manufacturingthrough the Lockheed Martin Corporation. This corporation is responsible for NASA’s OrionMulti-Purpose Crew Vehicle. This spacecraft was originally constructed in
inclusivity (JEDI) research tobetter support the development of engineers who both value and act on these values.One limitation of this work is that this study was done only one time, in one university and oneclass. Therefore, in our on-going and future work we will focus on expanding the data collectionto other universities, majors other than Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and first yearstudents. By doing so, we would be able to further investigate developmental trajectories as wellas disciplinary differences in light of typical and design-focused engineering curricula.Many open questions remain about developmental trajectories in particular. We do not knowhow expansive empathy is developed over time or if students would be able to transfer it
