These courses are inherently interdisciplinary. Students in the engineering andcomputer science fields step into physics and chemistry labs to solve science problems, ofteninvoking their own relevant expertise. In this paper we start by discussing the common themesand outcomes of the course. We then discuss three particular projects that were conducted withengineering students and focus on how the undergraduate research experience enhanced theiralready rigorous engineering curriculum.KeywordsUndergraduate research, Physics Education, Laboratory Instruction

His current research is focused on reliable, robust, and economic microgrids, alternative energy systems, power electronics, graphene, and biofuels. Microgrids have a wide variety of commercial and humanitarian applications. Humanitarian microgrid projects require non-traditional design approaches since their operation requires minimal human intervention and maintenance. Furthermore, users typically become dependent on the reliable operation of these systems hence premature failures can have serious negative consequences.Dr

The modifiedILD has the same three stages as the original ILD, with two main differences in whoperforms the experiment and when it is performed. Specifically, the three phases in themodified ILD are 1) predict, 2) experiment (by students working in groups, not theinstructor), and 3) reflect (in groups, not individually). The first phase, prediction, beginswith the analysis of a physical situation in which students have to predict the behavior ofthe situation based on the knowledge imparted in the session by the instructor. This occursat the end of the instructor's exposition. The second phase occurs in the laboratory sectionof the course and relates to students' experience

lab classes often experience dissatisfaction not because they dislike hands-on learning, but because they are overwhelmed by other components and deliverables of the labclass.At the other end of the spectrum, some hands-on learning has focused on very simplemanipulators that are designed to provide a qualitative reinforcement of concepts. One of thegoals of this NSF IUSE project is to create simple hands-on experiments that can be highlyportable for use in lecture rooms, laboratories, or even dorm rooms but can still go beyondqualitative demos and yield quantitative confirmation of engineering models. Due to advances inportable data acquisition devices, laptop computers, and affordable sensors, there is anunprecedented opportunity to make
