development testing. During the early development stages, customer doors are notavailable, thus a surrogate fixture that can hold the outside mirror and simulate a door slam eventis needed. Currently door slam requirements are a subjective test looking for buzz, squeaks,rattles. The development of a laboratory fixture would allow a more repeatable method to controldoor acceleration and potentially make a more quantifiable method.” Students are currentlyworking on an inertia simulator for door handles. This project was proposed by a mechanicalengineering student and is being completed by two mechanical, two product design andmanufacturing and one electrical engineering student.Although the co-op two technical writing assignment has not yielded high

at Rowan and UMass, she developed a passion for undergraduate education. This passion led her to pursue a career as a lecturer, where she could focus on training undergraduate chemical engineering students. She has been teaching at UK since 2015 and has taught Fluid Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Computational Tools and the Unit Operations Laboratory. She is especially interested in teaching scientific communication and integration of process safety into the chemical engineering curriculum.Dr. Renee Kaufmann, University of Kentucky, College of Communication and Information, School of Informa-tion Science c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020Learning to talk the talk – Preparing

the renowned Ford SYNC R system, which has directly impacted Ford’s present vehicle production. Before joining Ford Motor Company in 1996, Prasad worked as a senior scientist at RICOH Innovations in Menlo Park, Calif., developing automatic ”lip reading” as a novel human-machine interface. In addition, he was at Caltech and the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., where he worked on the world’s first telerobotic visual surface inspection system to help design the International Space Station. Attracted by an open-ended challenge to discover ways to integrate ”intelligence” into cars and trucks, Prasad joined Ford to work with a small group of engineers in the development of adaptive headlamp and lane
