-university partnership for student research projectsAbstractThis paper presents a case of an industry-based student research project at Villanova University.The university partnered with a local electronics manufacturing company and was funded by thestate. As a part of the funding requirement, students are supported during the project, the industryand university participate in cost-sharing and the students present their results to the state spon-sor and company periodically during the project lifetime. In this paper, we discuss the projectscope which is to improve the manufacturing process at the electronics company for assembly andpackaging PCB. The project findings are presented in detail that includes creating and launching akey performance

The objective of bowling ballproject was to demonstrate the behavior of fiber reinforcement within concrete, to gainexperience in forming and fabricating a fiber-reinforced concrete, and to encourage creativity inmix design predictions and analysis testing. The students received instruction and guidelines forthis project early in the semester so that they can start thinking about different mix ingredientsand how to prepare concrete bowling ball. However, this project was conducted in the last threeweeks of the semester. Students worked together in groups to perform all the steps of the projectfrom design to manufacturing and testing. Survey
