Engineering’s Explore Engineering Program summer camp. The Explore EngineeringProgram aimed to spark an early interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics(STEM) through the use of hands-on activities. Participants spent each day looking at variousengineering fields offered by the University of Arkansas.This camp uses a University of Arkansas approved Internal Review Board (IRB) protocol for theuse of human subjects. A pre and post survey is used to determine the immediate impact of thecamp. Participants are given the pre-survey at the beginning of the first day and the post-surveyat the end of the last day. It is part of the program and therefore has a near 100% completion rate.The approved protocol includes the ability to track each

the fourth portion of this course, students are formed into groups and are asked todevelop their own green designed system or a designed city. Students are taken through theprocess of ideation all the way to prototype or mock up design. They must defend their choicesof green technologies or green alternatives and demonstrate that either their designed system is abetter option or that their designed city is sustainable.Within the Ethics and Ethical Consumerism portion of the course, students realize that all ethicaland green options may not be obvious or simple solutions. Students are placed in the shoes of aCompany, a Sustainability Engineer, and a consumer through role playing, so that they grasp thedriving motivations of each. Students

Management System The ABET Engineering Criteria (and by association, the Engineering Technology,Applied Science and Computing Criteria) [2, 3, 4, and 5] define an educational qualitymanagement system (QMS). According to ISO 9000:2008, a QMS is “coordinated activities todirect and control an organization to achieve quality objectives,” where quality is defined as “thedegree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfills a need or expectation.”[7] The QMSdescribed in ISO 9001:2008 and 2015[7, 8] is based on six quality principles: customer focus,leadership, engagement of people, process approach, improvement, evidence-based decision-making and relationship management. ISO 9000:2005 provides a model for a process-basedQMS that depicts the
