The supply and demand of graduates currently is not in an equilibrium stage,and despite the efforts to expand STEM opportunities, the number of college students pursuingscience and engineering is stagnating. 7 Stagnation continues when unemployment is at recordlows for S&E graduates, this dynamic defies the “invisible hand

This project wasfocused on the design and implementation of an undershot water wheel. The water wheel wasassumed to be set into a river system with an assumed flow of 10 ft/s. The components designedfor the water wheel system are wheel, shaft, belt, pulley and bearing. The wheel shaft is to beconnected to a generator with a belt system. A journal bearing was selected based on the loadrequirements. The waterwheel’s vanes encountered bending moment and shear force from thetangential flow of water to its circumference.

Inclusion of these degrees was informed by the University of Colorado Boulder (CUBoulder)’s 20-year historical trends of the degrees students earn when they leave the College ofEngineering and Applied Science (CEAS), but continue on to earn university degrees. The topmajors of those students who earn degrees outside of the CEAS, who were in the college at sometime are: 1. economics, 2. finance, 3. psychology, 4. integrative physiology, 5. biochemistry, and6. math.

. As far as the amount of interaction and mentoring that I expected from my faculty research advisor, I did not know what to expect. From my experience in research, mentors vary significantly in their styles and approach of conducting their research and interacting with their students. At the beginning of the project, I second guessed almost every idea that I came up with and did not trust my judgment to do anything correctly or efficiently. I always ran whatever idea that I came up with by either David S. or Justin B. prior to acting on it, no matter how minor it seemed. About half-way into the research program I began to feel far more comfortable with the whole design process
