research project in electromagnetic control of hypersonic shockwaves for re-entry bodies isin progress at Alabama A&M University (AAMU). A group of propulsion students wereasked to design a mechanical cradle to support a test object for an experiment involvingelectromagnetic control of shockwaves as a senior project. The thermal and mechanicaldesign of this cradle required students to apply Computational Fluid Dynamics and noveldevelopment in electromagnetic flow control to complete the required design tasks. Thispaper describes the project and the assessment method used to evaluate student learning.IntroductionMechanical Engineering graduates must demonstrate: 1) an ability to design a system,component, or process to meet desired needs; 2) an

alsorevealing evidence of increasing efforts to promote and institutionalize multidisciplinary engineering education,including courses, capstone design experiences, and entire degree programs. Yet while lots of attention has beenpaid to multidisciplinary engineering education, few if any efforts have been made to survey the overalllandscape of multidisciplinary efforts in engineering education, including to identify effective approaches andpractices. Due to this lacking and even ill-defined picture of multidisciplinary engineering education, effectiveefforts and best practices might be overlooked by both researchers and educators. To address this gap in theliterature, a comprehensive review of multidisciplinary engineering education is needed to make

carry high stakes for students since both are required for graduation. Thus,negative comments reflect a fundamental observation: for engineering, servant-leadershipprojects are more time-consuming than conventional course projects due to the need to serve anoutside stakeholder on a deadline. A best-practice, therefore, is build more time into courses forservant-leadership projects than is typically given for conventional projects.To further place negative aquaponics miniature project comments in context, it is helpful tocompare this project against design-and-build projects selected by instructors in previousofferings of this thermodynamics course.

Biodiesel ReprocessorProjects 1, 2 and 4 were part of ongoing research projects, while project 3 and 5 werespecifically designed for the purposes of the REU. Students working on projects 1 and 2 got toconduct some of their testing at industrial facilities, while those working on projects 3 and 4were given access to components and/or equipment by GM. Most of the projects wereexperimental and projects 3-5 in particular required the design and development of a newapparatus by the students. All of the students got the opportunity to use experimental techniquesor equipment that most undergraduates would rarely get a chance to use and got to interact tovarying degrees with faculty, graduate students, industry mentors and staff.Based on this initial

Fish provide nutrients needed for plan growth.The water from the fish pond is circulated to a greenhouse where crops are grown and then backto the fish pond. Pumps used for water circulation, as well as aeration of the fish pond, werepowered using solar photovoltaics. The system design was the output of a senior thesis project atPrinceton collaboration with research partners in Egypt and initial plans for the Summer 2020 werefor another cohort of students to travel to Egypt to install and test the integrated aquaculture andhydroponic system in Egypt.

During week 1, student teamsare required to define a problem that they can solve with an IOT solution and conductbackground research to create their idea. They also identify design requirements and begin tobrainstorm solutions for their IOT problem. During week 2, student teams choose their bestsolution and design, code, and build their

WPI took a decidedly different approach. We introduced Robotics as amulti-disciplinary engineering discipline to meet the needs of 21st century engineering.
