On the other hand, universitiesstruggle to get economic resources, beyond student´s tuition and fees, to support theirresearch and improve the quality of the education they deliver to be well positioned in themany university ranking systems produced by large international companies. Moreover,defining priorities in the research lines becomes a very hard task for deans and graduatedirectors, most of the time these budgetary discussions affect the organizational climatethat is needed to ensure good results in scientific production.

Particularly relevant to the premise of the FYS Bridge course arethe rubrics that address establishing the background, exploring ambiguity, questioningassumptions, and identifying context, but applied to challenges in engineering, technology, andscience in society. With this in mind, the authors have selected tentatively the following topicsand readings for the course:The questions that science, engineering, and the humanities can answer… and those theycan’t.

. There is a multi-week final project in which two-person teams programa game that requires a hardware interface. Students are loaned a LabJack and an additional kitwhich contains electronic parts like resistors, LEDs, switches, jumper wires, and a protoboard.In past years, the ECE 102 final project has been based either on the television game show“Wheel of Fortune” or the 80’s electronic toy “Simon”. At this stage a fair amount of technicalassistance and background information is given, since many of the students have not worked onsubstantial program development or interfacing before. For Wheel of Fortune, students build acircuit using a 3-to-8 decoder chip and eight LEDs to simulate the wheel (Figure 2). A discretepush-button activates the spin

This paper will describe an active learning class,the Flight Vehicle Design and Fabrication Class (known by students as the Sailplane Class), inwhich student hands-on learning includes flying radio-controlled airplanes. BackgroundThe Sailplane Class has been at Penn State University since the early 1990’s and was originallysponsored with funding from the National Science Foundation through the Engineering Coalitionof Schools for Excellence in Education and Leadership (ESCEL

In summary, this literature review demonstrates that empirical studies of entrepreneurshipprograms often overlook socio-demographic characteristics and simplify the conceptualization ofco-curricular experiences, suggesting a vague alignment with the curriculum.Conceptual Framework In an effort to work towards a more structured approach to studying the complexities ofengineering entrepreneurship education and its impact on students in higher education, we havechosen to position this analysis in the context of Lattuca et al.’s (2014)30 use of the Terenzini

Thus,resulting data architectures and support infrastructures are both inefficient and incomplete in mostcases.This article provides a basic analysis of twelve existing health informatics undergraduate majorprograms, and proposes a more STEM-focused, engineering-oriented degree options tocomplement these programs to help narrow the skills gap. In particular, we argue that at leastsome of the health informatics professionals on-the-field should be providedopportunities—during their

their specimens, a benchtop mechanical tester (MTestQuattro; ADMET,Inc., Norwood, MA, USA) was used by the students to deform their specimens in tension at afixed deformation rate of 0.5 mm/s until failure was observed. Engineering stress-strain curveswere constructed from the resulting data, and the students determined the Young’s modulus (E),yield stress (σy), and strain at failure (εf) for each specimen. A full list of materials, step-by-stepinstructions, discussion questions and a glossary of engineering terminology is publicallyavailable.8 While only one deformation rate is investigated here, activity extensions could beperformed to investigate the effect of rate on the deformation response.

For example, there have been a wide list of categories andcharacteristics used to measure race in the United States that have changed over the years. Peoplecould not self-select their own racial category in the census until after 1960 – instead, they wereassigned a race based on phenotypical and linguistic features that conformed to the censustakers’ conceptual models of race [13].
