fluids classes and advises capstone design projects. She employs active learning and project-based learning in her curriculum, using varied approaches for different levels, and correlating course design and teaching techniques to learning outcomes. Dr. Levey was awarded Best Professional Paper at the ASEE NE conference in 2020 for collaborative research related to identifying and addressing gaps in Math skills needed for courses at the sophomore level. She draws from her cross-functional team experience as a Metallurgical Engineer in applied research and development prior to moving into academia.Prof. Ahmet Can Sabuncu, Worcester Polytechnic Institute Dr. Sabuncu holds a Ph. D. in Aerospace Engineering from Old

programs that involved students in the on-going activities of the institution andacquainted them with older professionals, who could potentially serve as mentors, wereincorporated into the sequense of recommended activities [11], [17]. Since today’s collegestudents are deeply motivated by large scale problems and environmental issues [18], significanteffort was expended in helping them to select broad, diverse faculty-directed projects orientedtoward the Grand Challenges for their initial research team experiences, where possible [19]. Asrising sophomores, the RS students participated in the Louis Stokes Alliance of MinorityParticipation (LSAMP) program [20], becoming team members within an experimental laboratory,directly participating in the

This is also discussedby Kuh, who, in addition to internships, presents community service and capstone projects asHIPs that enhance students’ employability [12].Another relevant study explored the development of T-shaped or holistic problem solving skillsand their application to solve real world problems by undergraduates in technology degreeprograms. This study found that holistic problem solving skills were very important for getting afirst job and technical depth was not as important [13
