metacognition.MethodologySubjects and settingThe Department of Engineering and Design at Western Washington University (WWU),established in 2014 as part of a state-funded transition from Engineering Technology, hasapproximately 400 undergraduate students with about 100 students enrolled in the electricalengineering program. In the conception of the new engineering programs, project-based learningwas identified as a key component of the curriculum, and consequently the majority of courses inthe department have a weekly lab component. While the labs provide an opportunity for hands-onlearning, problem solving at all levels is primarily practiced through weekly homework problems,in introductory courses up through senior-level courses on more advanced topics.This case study

Through expert lectures and arobust project, students were introduced to technology commercialization and the entrepreneurialmindset, skills that aid in the development of career-ready and innovative engineers. Studentsapplied these concepts through a laboratory-based design project by participating in a productpitch competition to justify the value of their design to a panel of experts in the field whoexemplified potential investors. To measure outcomes, we assessed students’ self-reportedexpertise in various components of these disciplines through surveys administered at multiplepoints throughout the modules and gathered anonymous feedback through end-of-semestercourse

Short-term applications are boilers andfurnaces (including power stations), whereas turbines and diesel engines may become availableon the somewhat longer term. Upgrading of the bio-oil to a transportation fuel is technicallyfeasible, but needs further development. Transportation fuels such as methanol and fuels createdwith the Fischer-Tropsch process, can be derived from bio-oil. Furthermore, there is a widerange of chemicals that can be extracted or derived from the bio-oil.” [7] Generating the fuel on asmall scale with the BV system is a little presumptuous, but hopefully will find a market whenthe commercial

This project is typically sponsored by a local industry, and isdesigned to teach the students how the design and development process works. Typically, thestudents are required to manage the entire project from the planning and scheduling stagethrough design, analysis, and final report.Occasionally, a project comes along which is not sponsored by a local industry, but by anindividual who has an interest in helping the school and the students.

Say for example, participating in a robotics competition, or applying for an internship at a local tech company, or even signing up to tour a technology facility, all of these are great opportunities for anyone with serious interest in engineering. The moment I found my spot in the opportunities I had; taking part in robotics competitions, applying for jobs, working with clubs in my area designing and building cool tech projects, I found that I now search more and more not for clubs to take part in or opportunities to take
