As universities are not able to adapt the curriculum in short- andmedium-term, the company’s business lab must be able to fill this gap, although there currentlyexists no process for the setup of new courses for the business lab in the company.UNIVERSITY-INDUSTRY COOPERATION FRAMEWORKBased on the case study findings and the success factors identified through literature review wepropose a generalized framework for university-industry cooperation in the area of IS, which isdepicted in figure 1.

The nature of construction industry, trends and changesThe construction industry is currently one of the largest industries in western democracies. In theUnited States, it is on a par with education and health and along with associated investment andservice industries, it contributes about 9% of the US Gross Domestic Product (GDP) andemploys more than 10 million workers. Australia has a similar profile, where the constructionindustry contributes to 8% of the GDP and employs more than a million people – about 9% ofthe total workforce1.Modern construction spans design, new construction, rehabilitation, renovation

While they serve the purpose ofevaluating students' understanding, there is substantial evidence showing that traditionalexams can induce significant stress and anxiety, negatively affecting students'performance[2], [3]. Many students report that stress and worry cause them to forgetimportant information during the exam, even when they possess the necessary knowledge[4], [5], [6], [7] . The pressure to perform within a limited timeframe exacerbates theseissues, leading to what is commonly referred to as "blanking out" during exams [8]. Thiswidespread stress is not unique to

students. Students often express astrong sense of pride in becoming an engineer and believe that their hard work, perseverance,and ability to overcome rigorous challenges are a testament to their capability and worthiness inthe field.[1] However, the intense, high-pressure culture within engineering programs often takesa serious toll on students' mental health. Engineering students, even before the COVID pandemichit, were reporting higher levels of stress, anxiety, and depression than the general studentpopulation, but are less likely to seek help.[2-4] Their well-being is connected to whether theyfeel like the academic environment is supportive, hostile, or something in between.Culture change is a gradual process, requiring time, commitment, and

written, distributable articulation of suchpriorities is also felt to be required. But if we are interested in the social relations associatedwith engineering codes of ethics, we must ask: Why precisely is such an articulation felt to benecessary? After all, many features of many professional operations never find such formalexpression; although Codes of Ethics for History professors exist, they are rarely invoked inpractice or passed along for graduate students, for example. Moreover, although developing acode of ethics is commonly viewed as having been an essential part of engineering’sprofessionalization in the United States,1 the question of how codes of ethics actually shape dailyengineering practice is a, huge realm for study.

As such, an introduction to robotics in the context of manufac-turing is becoming more important for students pursuing degrees in Manufacturing Engineering.There is, however, always a challenge when teaching robotics to find the correct balance betweenapplication and modeling.

Indeed, it is often only on looking back “after thingsturned out nasty” that reasoning seemingly unrelated to ethics may be identified as ethical.1 Likewise, students may not recognize that engineering design is inherently tied to ethics.However, the products of an engineering design process, and especially the use of thoseproducts, undoubtedly are.1 Scholars have argued that ethical issues arise on a day-to-day basisin the

Data sources included instructorjournals, field notes, and community conversations. The thematic analysis highlights (1) theinfluence of instructors’ own definitions of engineering on classroom interactions; (2) the role ofheritage language use in building trust; and (3) students' creative engagement with materials,which surfaced localized forms of engineering not always recognized in traditional curricula.This WIP illustrates the

In this case, the 3Dprinter was left unattended overnight since the time predicted by the 3D-printing program tocreate a part was about 9 hours. As the first few layers were deposited, they separated from theprinting platform and adhered to the printing nozzle of the extruder. Then, the nozzle and someportions of the extruder were encapsulated as more plastic was extruded. To remove the plasticbuild-up, a student used a heat gun to re-melt the plastic and release the extruder. However, inthe process, a plastic extruder holder was partially melted as well and had to be replaced. Figure1a shows the
