Student - Developed test system, designed and fabricated custom components. • 32 Course Graduate Students - Gave feedback on the course content and delivery over 2 semesters.Course ObjectivesWe wanted to establish a course that starts by teaching the fundamentals of structural modeling,but leads the students quickly and directly to the laboratory. At the graduate level this validationstep is often excluded, so students end up with the skills to build complex models, but never to setup realistic experimental conditions and accurate data acquisition systems to test these models.Our goal was to provide the educational structure to teach the integration of the two disciplines,but to also take it a step further and have the exemplar

In Fall 2009, thedepartment celebrated the completed renovation of the old Industrial Sciences Building into thenew Preconstruction Center. In addition to providing the faculty and students with a state-of-the-art learning facility, the Preconstruction Center demonstrates the enthusiasm and commitment ofthe industry partners to Colorado State University’s CM department. The Preconstruction Centerincluded the following additions to the program: • Preconstruction laboratory • Lecture hall • Video conference classroom and lobby • Classroom with state of the art technology access
of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign and has been a full-time faculty member in the Electrical and Computer Engineering De- partment at Valparaiso University since August of 2001. He teaches courses in senior design, computer architecture, digital signal processing, freshman topics, and circuits laboratories and is heavily involved in working with students in undergraduate research. Will is also a 2013 recipient of the Illinois-Indiana ASEE Section Outstanding Teacher Award. Upon coming to Valparaiso University, Will established the Scientific Visualization Laboratory (SVL), a facility dedicated to the use of Virtual Reality (VR) for un- dergraduate education.

He has extensive international experience working on technical training and engineering education projects funded by the Asian Development Bank, World Bank, and U.S. Department of Labor, USAID. Countries where he has worked include Armenia, Bangladesh, Bulgaria, China, Egypt, Macedo- nia, Poland, Romania, and Thailand.Dr. R. Ryan Dupont, Utah State University Dr. Dupont has more than 35 years of experience teaching and conducting applied and basic research in environmental engineering at the Utah Water Research Laboratory at Utah State University. His main research areas have addressed soil and groundwater bioremediation, stormwater management via green
classroomlearning experience combined with hands-on laboratory and group project activities. Theexperience of working in a close-knit team with direct access to your supervisor is difficult toemulate via distance learning. When combined with the UK education pedagogy and teachingexperience the whole joint-school experience is difficult to substitute. Consequently the threatof substitution is considered low.4. Buyer PowerBuyer power is probably the largest threat to the program and gives rise to the question “Whois the customer?” Identifying the first customer is straightforward; it is the new potentialstudent and their families who will invest in education products.

Laboratory at Georgia Tech. Farrokh’s current research focus is model-based realization of complex systems by managing uncertainty and complexity. The key question he is investigating is what are the principles underlying rapid and robust concept exploration when the analysis models are incomplete and possibly inaccurate? His quest for answers to the key question are anchored in three projects, namely, Integrated Realization of Robust, Resilient and Flexible Networks Integrated Realization of Engineered Materials and Products Managing Organized and Disorganized Complexity: Exploration of the Solution Space His current education focus is on creating and implementing, in partnership with industry, a curriculum for
should share the work load equitably and share the credit; • Accountability- Students should be accountable individually & as a group. Keeping track of knowledge gained by the individual (through the group) should not be overlooked; • Sharing known skills- Students who possess certain knowledge or skills (computer skills, laboratory skills, data analysis and reduction skills, writing skills, presentation skills, etc.) should be willing to pass it on, and/ or share it with their group members; • Collaborative skills- Groups cannot function effectively if members do not have (be willing to learn) or use some needed social skills. Such as: leadership, decision-making, trust building, and conflict
