asdistinctness between engineering design thinking, on the one hand, and engineering model-basedreasoning, on the other hand. The 1990s witnessed the rise of a transformative wave to the engineeringcurricula, where the “engineering science” model became dominant in engineering curricula. In thismodel, the focus in the first two years of the curriculum is placed on the “engineering sciences,” or,alternatively, “analysis,” with the expectation that students would apply the learned scientific principles tosolve technical problems. However, a segregation problem between “design” and “analysis” started toemerge. The problem was caused not only by lack of appreciation for the complexities associated withdesign teaching and learning, but also by lack of

CSU has recently received the 1890 Land Grant Institution designation and movingfrom a teaching emphasized institution towards a research based undergraduate institution. Tosmooth the transition, faculty at CSU are encouraged to carry out interdisciplinary undergraduateresearch activities to offer CSU students a distinctive research based college learning experience.These activities are also expected to further engage and prepare students for post-graduationeducation and career.Over the past ten years, CSU has experienced full time enrolled (FTE) student populationdecreased by 24% from 2,322 in 2011 to 1,761 in 2017, and then slowly

The teaching strategy used in the lecture is inquiry-based learning, and the teaching process is guided using specially designed, logically connected questions to strengthen students’ ability for critical thinking. Video demonstrations of real-world applications are used to raise students’ interest and keep their attention throughout the class. The 2.5-hour class is always divided into two sessions.

Using cognitive ethnography, we analyzed research activities in engineeringresearch laboratories, and SDP teams’ discussions about ethics issues, with or without thepresence of ethics experts. We found that student teams demonstrated multi-layeredunderstanding of engineering ethics: explicit and implicit. Those two types of understandingmanifested themselves differently across SDP teams. At the explicit level, SDP teams understoodtheir technical responsibility and practical work ethics, but at the same time rarely showedappreciation for

In the EET program at Kennesaw State University, the Capstone Design courseexperience was offered through a menu of project-based senior design courses that students gotto choose from based on their specific electrical areas of interest. This served the program wellfor several years but did not always offer the students a uniform design experience as thatdepended on the instructor(s) teaching those classes in a given semester.

Consequently, women receive less financial support and encouragement forhigher education than their male siblings. Even teachers have greater expectations in theeducation of male than female students. Because of their gender, female students face curfews attheir hostels and at home.
