To ensure quality deliverables, theprogram has long hosted design reviews, in which volunteers from industry serve as expertpanelists, listening to the student teams’ presentations and giving feedback and suggestions toimprove the projects and support the students’ professional development. Engaging industry indesign reviews has led to a number of positive outcomes, including translation of the moreengaged design reviewers into volunteer team advisors, closer connection with industry partnersyielding financial sponsorships, and more opportunities for students to engage with potentialemployers.

Homework and exam problems all have a single correctsolution. Besides the fact that many real-world problems do not have a single answer, many real-world problems are not as well-defined as they are in the classroom

A majority of the intern participants (over 85%) attended technical talksand gained exposure to cutting edge technologies and relevant topics (including hypersonics,natural disaster response, anti-gravity machines, and 5G networks). Many of these interactionsdirectly informed the students’ project brainstorming sessions and eventual final proposals.Students who responded to the survey stated that they met and interacted with on average three ormore staff outside of technical talks and approximately 46% stated their confidence

The project focuses on developing a scalable and sustainable workforce development program for microelectronics that will serve as a model for other workforce development efforts (i.e., artificial intelligence, hypersonics). In this role, she examines organizational and leadership issues that span across an ecosystem of partners within the following areas: defense, government, industry, community colleges, and universities. Dr. Linvill’s research is strategically designed to address organizational challenges and create novel solutions to those challenges. Her work has been presented at national and international conferences and

Education, 2023 Closing the Gap between Industry and Academia via Student Teams SupportAbstractA well-known challenge in engineering education is the attempt to balance the demands of industryrecruitment with the core needs of an already packed engineering curriculum. Due to timeconstraints, real-world examples and other learning opportunities that aim to develop andconsolidate the industry-desirable skills can be difficult to include in the curriculum. One way toaddress this challenge is to collaborate with industry (for example, on capstone projects, studentteam challenges, etc.) while the students are still studying. A place for these collaborations, whichcan provide benefit for both parties, is through student competitions. Student

Despite that intent,fourteen of the fifteen academic equivalencies are in the United States. The champions of theseprograms typically pursue AcEq as a way to provide structure to their courses.
