The recent Mars Science Laboratory Mars2020 Perseverance included 8-10 instruments for an estimate of 2,500 functional interfaces[McKelvin, et al., 2015]. In another example, Lockheed’s Martin F-22 Raptor has an estimate of1.7 million lines of code while the F-35a includes almost 8 million lines of code [Capaccio, 2021].Following previous examples, it could be seen that existing engineering methods, tools, andprocesses would be overwhelmed by the increasing complexity and characteristics of emergingdigital systems such as Cyber-Physical Systems, Industry 4.0, Model-Based Engineering, andSociety 5.0.Professional

Each participant worked on a CPS project in the laboratory oftheir research mentor and interacted daily with graduate research assistants over the seven weeks.Because we asked participants to translate their research experiences into a curricular unit bycreating a PBL unit for a community college course, we designed the RET to be a PBLexperience for participants. The driving question was “What kinds of energy production andcontrols would we need to travel to Mars?” The entry event on the first day of the RET PBL wasa luncheon featuring videos of the research groups’ on-going projects and a guest speaker,aligned with the driving

REU experiences suchas the one at OU provide not only a research experience, but also multiple opportunities forstudents to grow professionally and academically through seminars, industry or laboratory tours,professional development opportunities, conference presentations, as well as social activitiesmeant to enhance their sense of belonging and increase their sense of self efficacy.

In all of his research, the goal is two-fold: (1) exploring fundamental cognitive processes related to learning to add to our theoretical understanding, and (2), where appropriate, applying this knowledge to improve education. An assumption underlying his research approach is that current educational issues provide investigators with some of the most compelling research topics and that rigorous empirical work aids us in making the education process more successful. He has collaborated actively with researchers in STEM disciplines outside of psychology (engineering and chemistry). Dr. Therriault currently serves as a Board Member on UF’s IRB.Elliot P.

As an undergraduate student, healong with several fellow students struggled with a lack of understanding in a requiredcourse in numerical and computational methods (NCM). Despite the fact that heobtained a good grade in this course, he did not retain or fully grasp much of theinformation taught in this course. He eventually learned computational methods whileworking at research laboratories and by doing some personal research on mathematicalmodeling. Thus, he is motivated to explore the literature on the topic of numerical andcomputational methods in engineering and computing education, which cansubsequently help to broaden the understanding of these methods and ensure that futurestudents have a better experience

Did students perform better inengineering classes thanks to the responsiveness and availability of online instruction, or did theysuffer with the loss of laboratories and demonstrations in the standard classroom? Numerous researchers have grappled with this question, across many disciplines andaround the world. Fundamentally, it appears that COVID lockdown periods, especially thoseearly in the pandemic’s development (2020), increased the state of stress

Specifically, I-Corps addresses thelack of knowledge academic researchers have about technology entrepreneurship giventhat few receive such training as part of their doctoral programs (Duval-Couetil, et al.,2020). As a result, more are likely to conform to conventional cultural norms inacademia which incentivize obtaining funding to support research and laboratories,rather than pursuing commercialization opportunities (Huyghe & Knockaert, 2015).Hayter et al.

The pilot test also showed that a well-designed laboratory series is needed to boostthe success rate of students. Thus, with further training, students can use the platform forindependent projects (senior design, master’s project, etc.).

their attitudes on ethical issues.From students’ own discussions and from Goulet’s experience, it appears that studentattitudes and perceptions can be favorably impacted by clearly and forcefully settingstandards of appropriate behavior and by integrating ethical and legal decision-makinginto the curriculum. In that manner, ethical behavior is something that is done, rather thanstudied. Wankat and Oreovicz have proposed strategies for instilling honest behavior inengineering students by stressing (as did Goulet) the Engineering Code of Ethics; byreducing anxiety that might foster unethical behavior; by faculty always being a presencein the classroom and laboratory; and by structuring engineering education in such waysthat unethical behavior is
