yes), did you likepartnering with the juniors (83% said yes), do you plan to continue in the engineering program (85%said yes), and if not why (most students leaving the program didn’t like the work, workload or rigor ofthe course(s)? An attrition of 15% is significant, but in recent years it has been decreasing as theuniversity attracts stronger students.ConclusionFreshman students worked along side juniors in a seven-week project that included benchmarking,brainstorming, concept development, prototyping, solid modeling, CNC machining, machine testing,and a final competition. Each of the six junior teams mentored eight to nine freshman teams, and theresult was a significant transfer of knowledge and skills for the freshman. The juniors also

While one IEEE paper made use of no pronouns whatsoever, on average the sample setemployed the use of pronouns at a rate 50% than that used in the ASME papers.In the development analysis, it was found that ASCE and ASME articles were similar in terms of their useof charts and figures—about one-third of total article space—and also employed a similar number ofequations: a value in the high teens for ASCE and in the low 20’s for ASME. This slight deficit in thenumber of equations in the ASCE papers is roughly offset by the presence of additional space devoted tocharts and figures, making

Initially the course was designed in accordancewith the general profile of mechatronic engineers and their work environment as well as theparticularities of the region. On this basis, axes of knowledge were created and the necessaryskills defined, while taking into account the government‟s curricular guidelines.The formal disciplines provided the knowledge base and some practice, but were

At a maximum designspeed of 1500 rpm ( 157 rad/s) the expected torque on the generator was /0.13 before adding any friction losses. An estimate of the overall torque and rotationalspeed needed to be coordinated between the teams so that the mechanical system would deliverthe necessary speed and torque to the generator shaft, and that the structure was designed

Reason 2 isthat “[s]tudying the humanities allows you to become familiar with and use the creative ideasfrom great minds outside of science. As a poignant example in support of this argument, considerthe application of art-inspired mathematics to the applied chemistry of an oil-spill clean-up,presented at the Bridges 2012: Mathematics
