four years. With this timetable in mind, the first freshman level engineering classeswere held on the MSU campus in the fall semester of 2008. It is anticipated that a sufficientnumber of students will have completed the required prerequisite courses by the fall semester of2009 to be able to enroll in the first Electrical Engineering laboratory classes, and the firstlaboratory classes will formally begin at that time.Preliminary AssessmentThe first formal use of the new laboratory room will be in the fall semester of 2009. In thespring of 2009, one student who met the prerequisites, agreed to enroll and go through thelaboratory experiments used in the lab that accompanies the introductory circuit analysis course.This student was able to

they learn fromthe textbook and what they are expected to do in the actual Civil Engineering field.Additionally, those students who were taking the lab course simultaneously found this courseextremely helpful because they had more exposure to the use of the knowledge.A more formal presentation of the qualitative feedback will be included in a subsequent journalpaper. The results from this study also suggest that students who are self-regulated, keep theirgoals in mind, know what they are doing and why they are doing it, feel competent to do whatthey are supposed to do, and do their work as expected will do well in the class. The implicationsof these findings suggest the importance of motivation, self-regulation, and self-efficacy in

There was very little discussionabout material in engineering or sustainability education that causes problems or issues, butmuch more discussion on the framing of sustainability in the first place, the structural positioningof sustainability thought within the existing educational and academic paradigms (or, often, incontrast to the existing paradigms) of science and engineering, and the relationships ofsustainability (an, in fact, science) to values, ethics, and epistemology.The comments had an almost-universal anti-reductionist current. Several posts pointed out theneed to move beyond traditional reductionist approaches and frames of mind

These technical issues included packaging of manycomponents into small spaces, while being mindful of transportation laws governing maximumallowable axle weights, sizing of components such as dyno’s, the generator, HVAC systems,heat exchangers, pumps, wires, and plumbing components.The more interesting challenges are the logistical issues.

Their motivation to finish an engineering degree and to fit within their socialenvironment can be enhanced by doing something interesting yet useful for the community. Withthis in mind, mechatronics engineering students approached the Humans vs. Robots WorkoutChallenge lab. The main justification for the lab was to use various pedagogical learninginstruments such as project-based learning, peer learning, and increased student engagement, allin the function of learning basic robotic concepts and robot programming, as well as developingcommunication skills. Student engagement was directed towards increasing awareness
