develop expertise in theirmajor as well as gain experience in a variety of department-specific subjects.Engineering seminar courses are typically not required but encouraged, particularly for freshmenstudents. A series of introductory seminars targets freshmen and sophomore studentsspecifically to expose them to research areas within a department. Other departmental seminarsconsist of weekly talks given by invited speakers from industry and research, thereby enablingstudents to learn about a broad range of engineering applications. Seminars are typically one tothree units and may be graded on a pass / fail basis.Students at SPri also have the opportunity to take independent study units to participate inresearch projects with faculty and their
highsatisfaction with the instructions and MACILE in general, they were still able to find areas forpossible improvements. In robotics, for example, the students showed high satisfaction with theclass, but at the same time, about 50% of them suggested more homework, projects, and morecontent as ways to improve the class. Another example deals with student selection. Moststudents find MACILE excellent as a program, but some suggest that the admission processneeds improvement. They suggest that only “students that want to learn” be admitted, indicatingthat they notice the behavior of their peers. Page 22.108.8In summary, the results are still tentative, but
governed by a nonlinear differential equation(s). This situation often occurs whenstudents are assigned design projects, or more importantly when students practice engineering inindustry after graduation. Students are taught, in a series of dynamics courses, how to derive theequation of motion of a dynamic system whose resulting differential equation can be linear ornonlinear. At the same time, students these days are taught such that they are capable of usingthe above mentioned NAS to solve differential equations, even though their usage is mostlyfocused on solving ordinary linear differential systems. For most undergraduate mechanicalengineering students, who have no experience with the complex nature of nonlinear dynamicsystems, numerical

Strong completed her doctorate in aerospace engineering at Georgia Tech in spring, 2014. While a doctoral student, Strong was a National Science Foundation graduate research fellow and a member of the Cognitive Engineering Center. The goal of her doctorate research was to improve students’ abilities to think more broadly about complex systems design and to take into account stakeholder-related considerations within their design projects. Prior to attending Georgia Tech, Strong received a bachelor’s degree in

After joining the University of Michigan Library in 2009, the majority of her time and effort has been dedicated to textbook initiatives at the University of Michigan Library. Her research orientation and knowledge of both quantitative and qualitative methodological techniques has enabled her to conduct several textbook-related studies that examine and assess a wide range of potential roles the Library can play in increasing textbook affordability for the Michigan scholarly community.

processor for division by default, but anynumbers can be loaded to test the dividers if desired.Once the divider and wrapper are created, our entire design, which includes our HW divider, thewrapper, and the edited Trireme processor will be synthesized with the Quartus tool. We alsocompile just the HW divider in its module to get an accurate measure of speed and area for justthe divider. This will give us a result for the area of this divider, as well as the critical path for thedivider implementation. The synthesis of the entire project is needed for ModelSim to carry outthe simulation and test the divider. The ModelSim simulator will simulate the testbench writtenfor it and check for correctness.

That iswhy their study of Whiteness never forgets who should be centered: those that Whiteness hurts,oppresses, and marginalizes [18]. We understand that the lack of Black, Indigenous, and Peopleof Color (BIPOC) in engineering (i.e., supply) is not due to incapability or lack of persistence;it’s further downriver to the demand side—a

Additionally, all three participants held a process safety role or equivalentrole at their company. While results from this study provide valuable insight, it is important to recognizethat our findings are not representative of the broader population of industry professionals due to thesmall sample size. These trends also may have emerged due to the shared mindset of those holding similarjob roles, or due to company policy or culture of the participants working for the same company. Futureiterations of this project include recruiting industry professionals working for a variety of companies,within various job roles which still interact with

Regionalbachelor’s institutions are expected to lose more than 11% of their students by 2029, whereasdemand for elite institutions may be up to 14% higher in 2029 than it was in 2012 [2]. For elitecolleges researchers say it is the appeal of the job markets that gives them a better advantage.Will [3] in 2016 states “The United States is projected to produce fewer high school graduateseach year from 2014 to 2024, compared to the highest number of recorded number of graduatesin 2013. There will be a short period of growth between 2024 to 2026, but between 2027 and2032, the average size of graduating classes is expected to be smaller than it was in 2023.”Figure 1 below depicts [2] the growth, decline and the anticipated

The engineering and costs embodied withinthese design choices are clearly in excess of purely utilitarian alternatives. Corporations may alsopurchase prestige products unrelated to their primary business, such as sports arenas to enhancetheir CVI. These arenas are often purchased with a quasi-permanent time horizon; some are lesspermanent than others (e.g. Enron Field aka Minute Maid Park
