In a recent effort to re-establish arelationship between the Engineering department and University Library, the library adopted auser centered approach to build connections and establish relationships. Contrary to an “if webuild it, they will come” approach, this strategy prioritized a series of interviews and focusgroups with students, staff, and faculty within the division. This listening first approach hashelped us prioritize library resources in response to demonstrated curricula, research, andscholarship needs, many of which have changed over the past three years. This case studyexamines student focus groups and interviews. Major takeaways include new knowledge ofstudent research practices, detailed insights from minoritized

We can use thefollowing definitions: • Batch – A group of products that are manufactured simultaneously. • Transfer batch – A group of products that are transferred from one operation to another as a group. A transfer batch is a subset of a batch.As an example 1 of how batches work in manufacturing, consider Fig. 1. Assume that we havetwo products, X, and Y. Both products have to be processed in the same plant at the samestations, A, B, and C. The stations have the following capabilities: • Station A – Can process 1000 units of X per day and 2000 units of Y per day. • Station B – Can process 2000 units of X per day and 2000 units of Y per day

The course has been structured as a flipped class with classtime devoted to solving problems with the numerical tools. To provide relevance for the material,an experimental component has been added to the course.

Moreover, the learning in capstonedesign is not only related to discipline-based skills and knowledge, but something greater: theapplication and integration of that knowledge into the solution of a new problem, sometimes aspart of a team. This represents the sort of experience students will have as engineers once theygraduate and go on to work. Indeed, capstone design projects have evolved to prepare studentsfor “design and practice” as a supplement to core curriculum focused on “theory and research”[4], and capstone is some students’ first significant

A student’s level of academic success before matriculation isa strong predictor of STEM persistence. These predictors include standardized test scores andtaking calculus in high school [9], [10].Research has found that, after matriculation, a student’s likelihood to complete an undergraduatedegree was linked to a student’s level of academic and social integration.
