of increasingly complex questions. Students must have the ability to monitor informationgathered and assess for gaps or weaknesses. Students in lower level undergraduate engineeringcourses are usually unaware of techniques for monitoring information gathered and assessing forgaps in standalone research papers. Moreover, the management of literature research oftenbecomes overwhelming when engineering students encounter team-based design projects thatoccur over the course of an entire semester. To address this need, we have modified the QualityFunction Deployment (QFD) engineering design method to monitor and assess informationresources as a natural outcome of the design process. More specifically we have modified thematrix design method known

theclassification of civil engineering works and another questioned why the Proceedings of theAmerican Society for Civil Engineering (ASCE) had been included but not the Transactions ofthe ASCE. Another member pointedly asked whether any librarians had been consulted by theCommittee. Professor Burgess acknowledged that the committee could do a better job ofreaching out to librarians, but noted that only a few had shown interest in the project. He alsoreminded the group that the original purpose of the list was to benefit small libraries with limitedresources.Following the Cornell meeting, Professor Burgess left the committee and in 1907 Arthur H.Ford, professor of electrical engineering at the State University of Iowa assumed thechairmanship.

session was that both she and her colleague have degrees inscience. Before choosing to enter the law field, she attained her graduate degrees in plantphysiology and plant molecular biology and her colleague earned his graduate degree andpostdoctoral work in chemistry. So the scientists and engineers who attended the session feltcomfortable asking technical questions. The sessions were well attended, including all of thesenior engineering students, who work on capstone projects that can potentially be patented.At this time, the university has had more than 20 patents filed over the past seven years of itsexistence, the overwhelming majority of which faculty are the inventors. Therefore this talkwas definitely needed to inform and educate the NYUAD

, which in turn, impacted how funds are allocated.2 Theincreased competition for funding and decreasing availability of funds prompted finding ways toselect the highest quality projects that will have the most socio-economic impact. Theconjuncture of the two conditions precipitated the transformation of the research assessment intoa complex process aiming to evaluate research quality and measure its impact.3 As a result,research assessment process plays an important role in funding decisions and enablesorganizations to manage their research performance and to maximize their research output andimpact.4The growth in research assessment scope triggered an expansion of the stakeholders involved inthe process to include university administrators

Furthering her interest, Savannah designed a dehydration detector, ”Detecting Dehydration through Skin Conductivity”, that won first place in poster competitions of both the Society of Women Engineers and the Drexel Fresh- man IEEE. This inspired her to join IEEE, where she served as the outreach chair for one year followed by being elected President of the Student Branch. Savannah earned the IEEE Section Leader Scholarship, third place in the IEEE Undergraduate Paper Contest, and first place in the SAC Ethics Competition. She co-founded and organized the
