They spend a total of three weeks in each of the experiential learning facilities(laboratories and other learning environments), and working with a dedicated teaching team to get exposed tovarious project-based approaches in each field of study.Following this model, a set of one-credit courses are also designed to be offered in the second semester,focusing on each particular undergraduate program. Therefore, in their first year, students not only know aboutother programs of study in the school, but also get experience with a deep-dive, program-specific survey courseas a follow-up in their second semester of study.

Many land-grantuniversities were not fully equipped with the tools to offer the best learning experience tostudents due to lock-down and the inability to access the laboratories and teaching equipment.This global pandemic had caused the universities to change their operations and impelledinstructors to switch to online instruction halfway into the semester.

abilities within the mechanical engineering student population.Introduction Mechanical oscillators, such as the second-order translational “mbk” system have been aclassic topic in undergraduate mechanical engineering (ME) education for many years. Typically,students are first exposed to them in their introductory ordinary differential equations (ODEs)course and in either a “rigid body dynamics” [1] and/or a “system dynamics” [2] course, all ofwhich are required courses, vs. an elective course, such as Vibrations. Coverage in a lecture settingis common and in some cases simulation software is used, such as MATLAB/Simulink [3].

Field trips to construction sites for design classes candirectly relate class assignments to real structures, giving students a perspective on theinteraction between disciplines (owner, architect, construction managers, sub-contractors andengineers), and boosting confidence of engineering students. However, to maximize theirpotential, tours should be implemented with purpose and relate directly to class material
