and bears considerationby others.In engineering here, introductory computing is taught under an umbrella course number (GEEN1300 Introduction to Engineering Computing, 3 credit hours). The various engineering degreeprograms (chemical, mechanical, civil, architectural, environmental, aerospace) each teach asection of this course, and these sections take on “flavors” according to the preferences of theparticular program. Students in electrical engineering, computer engineering, and computerscience do not take this course, rather a typical “CS101” course based on C/C++. A significantfraction of the entering students, typically 30%, are "open option," not having declared anengineering major. These students are included in the sections of the GEEN

Interested in both math/science and literature/social science, he was persuaded tochoose engineering by his father, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at anIndia Institute of Technology.Team 19 was assigned to ‘Handicapped’ [sic], supervised by Dr. Harris. The four team memberswere disappointed because their top choice was the Vibrations Demo. Handicapped had beensecond choice. Dr. Harris was a design activist who regularly presented the design experience assomething that went far beyond the engineering sciences. For him this meant freeing their mindsto be able to explore problems creatively: “I don’t want them to see this project entirely throughtheir science classes. I want them to be creative

The page can be used in conjunction with an in-class discussion, homework assignment or quiz; enabling faculty to infuse their curriculum withequity-related discussions and content without having to fully redesign a course module or theentire course [10].

Students who complete these labs apply conceptual knowledge that they have gainedfrom multiple undergraduate courses. The point of this experiment is to familiarize students witha few basic aerospace concepts and terms such as Reynold’s number, coefficient of lift, andcoefficient of pressure1-4. Furthermore, it teaches students how to read a multi-manometer5 andperform and compare calculations obtained from experimental data and theoretical/virtualsimulations.This experimental setup
