Paper ID #27228Introducing Middle School Girls to Engineering Design and ManufacturingActivities at STEM Girls’ Summer CampDr. Irina Nicoleta Ciobanescu Husanu, Drexel University Irina Ciobanescu Husanu, Ph. D. is Assistant Clinical Professor with Drexel University, Engineer- ing Technology program. Her area of expertise is in thermo-fluid sciences with applications in micro- combustion, fuel cells, green fuels and plasma assisted combustion. She has prior industrial experience in aerospace engineering that encompasses both theoretical analysis and experimental investigations such as designing and testing of propulsion
the common fundamentals and practices thatdefine the theory and effective practice of engineering, technology, and science, but alsocommunicate these principles in an academic forum. With this in mind, a baccalaureatedegree program in Design Engineering was proposed in 2004. Subsequent modificationsto it were made in 2008, 2010, and 2012 based on assessment outcomes.Since the proposal of this original program, there has been an increase in demand forqualified manufacturing design engineering professionals. This is because this programoffers practical training in the area of manufacturing design engineering. Unlike atraditional Mechanical Engineering program, this program emphasizes those technicalskills that would build on each student’s

call this the “chop stick rule.” The mechanism must be small enough to be easily picked up and moved around by a pair of chopsticks.2) Mechanisms which can be constructed by commonly available manufacturing methods. We have a machine shop with conventional and CNC machine tools. There is also a 3D printer: Stratasys Mojo.3) Designing mechanisms with some applications in mind. These applications include but are not limited to manufacturing, biomedical engineering, and surveillance.We also created the following educational objectives associated with those technical goals.Project Objectives: Through projects under SMAL, students willa) develop out-of-the-box thinking approaches to design mechanism accomplishing the technical goals
senior students and have completed a course in Statisticsand a bulk of engineering sciences.Deming [3] said that ‘industry in America needs thousands of statistically minded engineers,chemists, doctors of medicine, purchasing agents and managers’ and this is more applicableto any country that aspires to make industrial progress. There is a firm unguided belief amongstudents that CNC machines produce components without any variation. Considering these itwas decided that the experiment would be ‘the measurement of process capability of an NCmachining process’.2.1 Nature of ExperimentsFeisel and Rosa [4] in their thought-provoking article entitled ‘The Role of the Laboratoryin Undergraduate Engineering Education’ identify three basic types of
