Inaddition, the students visited companies related to the local ceramic/aggregate industry to help puttheir classroom/laboratory training into context [11].In addition to the new MET 300 course, some modifications in MET 352 were made from Spring2022 to Spring 2023. These are discussed in detail in the following section.Spring 2023 MET 352: Introduction to Metallurgical Engineering Project BackgroundThe institution is a primarily undergraduate institution that rests in a geologically diverse regionof the United States.

The objective of the paper is to evaluate impact of theREU program on multiple student outcomes with respect to their research competencies such asunderstanding a research process, data gathering, analyzing, and presentation of results. Theanalysis is also broken down by gender, ethnicity, student type (junior, senior, etc.), and type oftheir primary institutions (major research school vs. teaching school). The cybermanufacturingREU programs recruits students both from in-state and out of state of Texas. In addition to mostcommonly held10-week long research program under the guidance of a faculty mentor, thecybermanufacturing REU also engages students in high impact learning and

created14 with support from NSF for avariety of topics in Bioengineering15. The method was shown to improve students’ performancewith open-ended problems16,17,18. Inquiry-based learning approaches, such as CBI, have beenfound to be “more effective than traditional science instruction at improving academicachievement, and the development of thinking, problem-solving and laboratory skills”11, and toenhance understanding of critical engineering concepts19,20. A key facet of the CBW approach in heat transfer instruction is the integration of hands-on workshops into the existing course. The integration of hands-on activities into courses hasshown significant learning gains for students across several domains. Faculty have usedinteractive learning

thepotential impact of the on-going work was evident [30]. It is well-accepted that the currentgeneration of college students have an affinity for environmental and social issues and thatlinking efforts to these “Grand Challenges” is inspirational and provides an external motivationfor long-term career goals [31], [32]. The Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation(LSAMP) program was used to give the RS students their first experience working in a modernresearch laboratory as a team member under faculty direction [33]. Once the students hadexperienced working under a faculty member, they were given a chance to direct a project oftheir own choosing. Similar to a capstone experience, self-directed technical work buildsconfidence and marketable

instructors collaborated in co-teaching the first-yearexperience university seminar course that the students had to take the fall quarter of the academicyear. This collaboration built a strong connection between the two instructors and the students.The course provided a more casual environment beyond the structured technical content of eachinstructor's respective discipline-specific courses.Additional Engineering Course MeetingsThe standard first-year engineering course is typically taught twice a week, with each sessionlasting an hour and fifty minutes. Throughout the year, the engineering class for SSP studentswas extended to three days, providing increased contact hours with their instructor. Thisadjustment facilitated greater access to laboratory
