Much has been made in the media of the skillsrequired for the new economy and the role of professional including “soft” skills in getting andkeeping a job. Technical skills alone are insufficient to prepare graduates in engineering andengineering technology for a career. ABET and other accreditation standards acknowledge therole of these skills in engineering and engineering technology education at the undergraduatelevel. 2 To help students improve their soft skills which includes oral communication, leadershipskills, time management skills, and professional presentation skills in a multidisciplinaryenvironment, the S-STEM recipients at our institution were required to register for a one-creditcourse

Practically speaking, it also gives them insight into the actualoperation of a steam turbine electrical generation power plant, which may inspire some toeventually pursue a career in this field.IntroductionThis experiment is designed to give the students a hands-on experience with a Rankine Cycle,and to directly relate the mechanical device to the theory learned in a typical thermodynamicscourse.

“Metrology” causes it to be a hard sell for institutions tobolster up attendance numbers. Initial introduction to the field among grade school and highschool students has been accomplished only by select individuals at science fairs and career dayseminars. One reason for this is that the career field was not entered into the U.S. Department ofLabor, Standard Occupational Classification (SOC), therefore did not have a formal, presentablecareer path to offer to students. Without a recognized career path, Metrology isn’t being talkedabout by guidance counselors to younger students to consider as their profession. This problemhas been addressed and Metrology should be added to the register in the next publication of theSOC (2010).Sypris Test &

, improving access to clean water, and enhancing virtual reality. In itsreport, “Educating the Engineer of 2020,” the NAE contends that solving problems, such asthose posed in the Grand Challenges, will require more than just providing students withtechnical training. An engineering education must, it is argued, produce graduates who combinetechnical excellence with a multitude of other skills including communication, teaming, ethicalreasoning, and contextual analysis1. Yet, without exposure to real-world applications in thecontext of a technical education, students may neither develop these important skills nor gainsufficient motivation to pursue careers in engineering. A key finding within the currentengineering education literature is that
