Teaching Practicum providesa competitive advantage to the mechanical engineering doctoral degree at Georgia Tech. Theconsensus opinion appears to be in retaining the current topics in the course. Considerationshould be given for adding a session(s) on obtaining research funding and preparing grantproposals. Also, since many graduates do not enter academia, more coverage could be spent onadditional topics from industry and other career paths.Bibliography1.

Nevertheless, we examine both and make a change to the firstsentence of the third paragraph in the abstract: • “Problems in polar coordinates are complex in comparison to those in rectilinear coordinates.

Conversely, in a service learning project involving both engineering andeducation students implemented in an after-school STEM club, communication and leadershipskills in engineering students increased (Keshwani and Adams, 2017), It is possible that thepressure to prepare for an audience of school children forced the college students to put morefocus on communicating to their intended audience.

It was also desired to use thistool to enhance the average engineering student’s understanding and exposure to the fields ofaerodynamics and fluid mechanics. These goals were accomplished by integrating three maintechnologies: a high performance cluster, finite element method, and mobile applications.The high performance cluster was utilized to handle the interaction between a graphical userinterface and a finite element code while alleviating the burden of memory and processorrequirements from the user’s device
