(engineering/math model).Engineers work with each of these models as they develop their understanding of a concept orsolve a particular problem. Reality is the way the world actually works; in general, reality tendsto be complex. The engineer works to shape reality, and therefore, must be a student of reality,learning how the world works through thoughtful observation. As engineers consider reality,they build mental models of how the world works. The mental model is qualitative and oftenintuitive. The mental model is the single greatest asset an engineer has; in the qualitative andintuitive world of the mind creativity flourishes. An engineer who wishes to communicate orrefine a mental model will draw sketches or diagrams. The mental model should lead

Even though two or three students will be encouraged as ateam, students, in particular graduate students and/or undergraduates with researchexperiences, can also do individual projects. Teams will be provided with a list ofpossible project topics. Since hands-on experiences encourage development of curiosity,analytical proficiency, and manual dexterity, which are three desirable characteristics ofan engineer, students are encouraged to take apart and explore each of the experimentalprojects as deeply as desired, keeping in mind any safety considerations appropriate forthese activities (i.e., safety glasses worn

This exercise hasproved to be very insightful. The students’ experience indicated that their co-opemployers already use most of the Green Engineering principles in theirprocesses. However, they believe that most of those practices are related to thereduction of manufacturing costs. A final analysis showed that most of the co-opcompanies perform regular recycling activities and prevention of waste. Also,most of the companies are mindful about the safety of their products and theimpact on their communities. At the same time, the students explore theprinciples of Green Chemistry

Other appropriatepractices that include training teaching assistants in safety protocols [3], organizing a lab spacewith safety in mind [4], or making use of a virtual lab.In civil and environmental engineering, there can be many types of lab spaces. It depends on thefaculty members’ areas of interest and program emphasis. However, various types of labs can begrouped into three major categories based on the particular hazards they contain. In laboratoriesthat involve construction, materials and machinery, students encounter hazardous physicaldevices. In environmental and biological labs

Although Environmental Engineering has some energy applications, I feel that a more mechanical background would be better suited for that field. [The guest speaker] talk also cemented in my mind that if I wanted to go more into [energy], Environmental Engineering is not the most direct. Instead, going more into chemistry for biofuels, electrical for PV, or mechanical for working on engine processes would be a better approach.” “While I still value the environment as highly as ever, I feel that I would be more suited to protect it as an

A new method, Classroom PreparationAssignment (CPA) was adopted in Fall 2016 for the third cohort (N3= 94). The students answeredguided reading questions for the CPA and brought two copies to the class where one was collectedat the beginning of the class, and the second was kept to take notes on during class. The CPAbecomes a study guide for course assessments. This study compared CPAs against Mind Dumpsin their effectiveness to encourage the first year Civil and Environmental Engineering students toread assigned material prior to the lecture.

Indeed, some of the more eruditediscussions in the arts and humanities have been reported in classes of engineering students whohave had that opportunity early in their educational exposure to those topics.Similarly, the Construction Management student needs to be able to follow the evolution of theconcepts within the mind of the artist/humanist, but from a somewhat different perspective. Inthis case the concepts of cost-effectiveness and profit margin are engrained in the psyche of thestudent from the first day of class – or even earlier, since many of these students come fromfamilies in the construction industry.

With this in mind, a faculty team from the Collegeof Engineering & Science developed a course on energy for nontechnical students. The coursehas been adopted into the university’s core curriculum, satisfying the objective for scientificliteracy in natural sciences. It is the first general education offering from
