With the emergence and proliferation of the technology, there is an increaseddemand of workforce which can understand principles of Additive manufacturing processes andoptimally apply it to solve real life world problems.This paper investigates existing efforts in Additive manufacturing education and its implicationsin engineering education research.

Through REU at a university, undergraduate participants havean opportunity to integrate into research groups and thereby, increase their awareness andinterest in graduate school in computing, science, technology, engineering, and math (C-STEM)fields. However, NSF funds only support United States (US) citizens and permanent residentstudents from institutions that may not have particular graduate programs.During the summers of 2017 and 2018, a Southwestern public research university in the UnitedStates had an opportunity to host an NSF REU program for national undergraduate students
