This new post-secondary education architecture will provide the student with a real-world learning environmentfor a full four-year undergraduate engineering program. The students learn the traditionalengineering theory and practical skills by participating in every aspect of the EMS business –hence, the phrase concurrent education. The professors in the school also lead project teamsconsisting of students and staff on the EMS production floor. The students will be compensatedfor their work in the EMS. The teaching staff will be employed by the business as well as theschool. The paper presents the planned curriculum for the students’ freshman year. The schoolutilizes the real world EMS classroom

Metrics ranged from the relativelystraightforward measures of the number of engineering education programs and productivity ofthose programs and individual researchers, which could be expected to have impact, to the moresubtle changes in attitude toward EER&I and extent of implementation of the results of EER&Iresearch, which would reflect the impact. Some of those subtle changes include attitudes towardwho can/should be an engineer and how the engineering culture, and courses, can change tobroaden participation in engineering

Design in Engineering Education

(IDEs)For this study, an Individual Design Experience (IDE) was developed to mitigate pre-existingdisparities in hands-on prototyping tasks in introductory engineering design courses. The IDEproject required students to create a child’s pull toy manufactured primarily out of wood andcomplied with ASTM toy safety standards. IDE learning objectives were: (1) to develop andexecute a manufacturing plan to create complex shapes from common stock materials, e.g., stocklumber, dowels, and rounds; (2) to identify and use common hardware like screws and springs tocreate a multi-part assembly; and (3) to confidently use hand tools and low precision powertools, e.g., power drill, band saw, and sanders. Evaluation of the IDE was consistent with

DOE is a great tool that can helpwith the basics of planning efficient and effective experiments and then gives a methodology for analyzingthe data obtained by such experiments. In DOE the experimenter changes controllable variables of thesystem or process and then analyzes output data to make inferences about which variables are significantand responsible for the changes observed, as shown in Figure 1 [2]. For that reason, DOE is a powerful toolwhen studying complex systems, such as heat exchangers. Figure 1: Generic

However, few students found theproject provided practice in producing physical hardware using campus MakerSpaces.
