emphasis on fuel efficiency and alternativefuel sources (fuel cell, biodiesel, and engine technologies). Some of the key aspects of thisundergraduate experience are: 1. A strong three-tier mentorship program involving faculty, industrial mentors and graduate students in a mechanical engineering department with higher-than-average women student and faculty representation (23.9% and 25%, respectively, compared to national figures of 13.2% and 6.7%) 2, 22, 23. 2. A commitment from several automotive companies (e.g., General Motors, DaimlerChrysler, Ovonic Fuel Cell Co., FEV Technology) and individuals with extensive industrial experience to provide mentorship to the student researchers and access to laboratory

Attendance at the two weekly 75 minute class sessionsis not mandatory.Research DesignThe research reported here is part of a NSF funded, exploratory research project from theCourse, Curriculum, and Laboratory Improvement Program (CCLI). The broad objective is todetermine the best ways to introduce computer algebra and symbolic manipulation software intothe early undergraduate mechanical engineering curriculum, specifically numerical analysis. Thisproject aims to improve student computing abilities by moving students away from ‘cookbook’approaches and finding ways to develop creative problem solvers. This will allow students todevelop skills that will enable them to deal with more complex problems

set-up.3. Study Results This “no numbers” methodology was implemented in an undergraduate dynamics coursewithout any laboratories, only lecture style classes. At first, only a partial “no numbers” conceptteaching method was use. That is, only the examinations were created and administered in the“no numbers” format. The homework problems and in class examples still had numbers andforced the students to utilize some type of solving routine to determine a final numerical answerto a given dynamics problem. As time and computer access were not an issue on homeworkproblems, it was determined that a “complete” analysis of a particular dynamics problem wasbeneficial to the students learning and understanding. The “no numbers” exams were

The course currently underway is Spring 2020and referenced as Term 4.Students are tasked with a design-build-test of a mechanical device for the end-of-term“competition” to showcase their high-stake design project. This class employs a team of 20undergraduate teaching assistants (TAs) to help facilitate various aspects of the course and tostaff the laboratory around the clock during business hours. Two to three graduate TAs are alsoassigned to the course

emphasizedeclarative learning, memorization and recall.2, 3. When there is an emphasis on memorizationand not application or content understanding, retention of students within the math and sciencebased majors becomes problematic.4Recently, the engineering field has begun to incorporate learner-context teaching such as case-based instruction and other problem based learning methods in the classroom. Since World WarII, many educational reforms have been made in the field of engineering based on the idea thatunderstanding concepts in a meaningful context and understanding the science behind thetechniques learned in laboratories was an essential part of student learning.

Unfortunately, some EC2000 efforts have followed the samepattern. The author observed numerous program assessment plans that were so elaborate andconsuming that they were surely never executed after the ABET visit. Faculty are rightfullyexhausted by the effort and quickly abandon the plan because of the inordinate time and energyrequired. These clearly did not meet the intention of EC2000 and could not be sustained.It became clear to the author that programs needed a framework to help make the processperiodic and accountable on an annual basis, not the six year period of an

Thus, by offering options for students, they were allowed to participate in the SUREprogram and complete their military and other obligations. Based on the number of weeks whichstudents worked, they were provided a stipend that ranged from $2,000-$3,000 along withhousing and meals. The faculty working with the students received a modest stipend whichranged from $1,000-$1,500.
