It is typically in the form of either directservice or project-based activities. Service learning as a pedagogical tool is gradually gainingmomentum in engineering programs across the country. In this paper the efforts of the author tointroduce service learning to an undergraduate thermodynamics course will be presented. For thispurpose, communications with the following museums were initiated: Powerhouse Science Center,Roseville Utility Exploration Center, and Aerospace Museum of California. Thesecommunications led to identification of the topics of interests for the community partners that

questions were usedto guide investigation: 1. What are common within-engineering transfer paths into and out of industrial engineering? 2. What are common non-engineering origins and destinations for transfer paths entering or leaving industrial engineering?The term ‘transfer path’ used here refers to a unique pairing of an origin degree program and adestination degree program that a student traverses while changing majors. Becausedirectionality matters, the path Aerospace Engineering > Industrial Engineering is distinct fromthe path Industrial Engineering > Aerospace Engineering.

This paper explores the assessmentresults of a study of freshmen students' outlook to media based tutorials. The study is based on asurvey completed by thirty two students enrolled in “Computing for Engineers” at GeorgiaSouthern University. The students major in different engineering disciplines, namely aerospace,computer, civil, chemical, electrical, and mechanical. The tutorials are designed to introducefreshmen students on how to use MATLAB/JAVA programs to simulate simple problems. Theresults from the study will be analyzed to evaluate the freshmen students' outlook to media basedtutorials. The students responded favorably to the developed
, the aerospace industry is making a major effort toincorporate an increasing number of composite materials into various components andstructures. However, machining of FRP composites is one of the most difficult and leastunderstood areas in manufacturing technology. Thus, it is necessary to include machiningand tool regimes of FRP composites into manufacturing curricula, especially at schools inregions of the country where significant aerospace industry exist.
