These collaborations sponsored by the governments ofcountries4,5 interested in promoting this kind of activity, eventually became individualrelationships between companies and universities throughout the rest of the world. Currentliterature indicates that such relationships became more of the norm in the late 1990’s and in thelast decade commonplace in various forms. Recently, consideration of minorities, women, andother

Cech et al.’s findingssuggest it is important to consider the impact of professional socialization when examininginteractions engineering students have with industry. The authors illustrate how the frameworkcan be used to explain gender representation differences in engineering.Our intent for this paper is to use professional socialization as a lens to examine the value that anAIDP brings to a students’ engineering identity formation, not to provide a full review on thistopic. We focus on three outcomes of professional socialization to guide our

Among the potential future improvements the case of research cooperation canbe reviewed, as well as the possibility of initiating cooperation from the university side can beadded.REFERENCESAnderson, M.

Thesenames were given to the professor who then contacted them, described the pilot project, andchose a topic(s) for the capstone course.A company in the entertainment industry that agreed to participate had technical staff that werelocated at a distant location. Despite this distance, they were willing to work with students viavideo teleconference, multimedia and the internet. They also committed their time to supportingthe capstone and mini-capstone projects to 1 hour per week. The other participant in theeducation industry was in the local vicinity and therefore could make a presentation on site andcollaborate with the students in person.Busy industry technologists were offered the following incentives to make presentations tostudents
solid model initially provided by the OEM (which wasmade purposefully deficient to illustrate the effect of poor modeling) and incorrectly predicted thefailed component(s). The next instructional phase was in experimental setup, nondestructivemeasurement techniques, data acquisition systems, and analysis of experimental data. This led tostudents running destructive experiments on real OEM assemblies in the lab, and discovering thattheir predictions did not match reality. We took advantage of the teaching opportunity to illustratethe effect of problem setup in meshing the solid models; students corrected and optimized theirmodel and were able to correctly predict the failed component. This exactly mirrors what happensin the OEM’s own labs.The
