Reaching our intrinsic goals (discussed in Meaning) leads to large gains ina sense of well-being [1].Classroom ImplementationIn EGR 103, the students are tasked with a team-based design project. They spend a majority ofthe semester learning the skills, developing the tools, and working to complete a functioningdesign with their team. The faculty work along side the students to aid in their success incompleting the required project. Until this past year, the design presentations anddemonstrations would occur in the last day(s) of class. Because of the realization that taking thetime to celebrate the completion of the project and recognize the accomplishment of the students,the faculty have been instructed to use the last

as a whole.PERT was developed in the mid 1950’s, about the same time as TPM. In fact, WBS is a PERTpractice. But PERT was developed specifically for projects with large knowledge gaps, scheduleuncertainty, and components that had never been tried before.In the remainder of this paper, we will look more deeply at all four of these practices, startingwith PERT, and present a proposal for combining elements of each to create a more realistic riskmanagement strategy to address the schedule risks in undergraduate capstone projects.PERTCPM and PERT were both developed for project scheduling in the late 1950’s.

examining the engineering culture through the lens of exclusion and‘weeding out.’ Our intent with this Work in Progress paper is to start a conversation that leveragesframeworks from other fields to understand how engineering culture acts as exclusive and exacerbatesissues related to retention and attrition, as well as diversity, equity, and inclusion.BackgroundThe exclusion of people from larger groups or communities has been studied through a variety of contextsover the years. Social exclusion in European contexts commonly refers to the exclusion of people oftenbased on class or socioeconomic status (The Social Exclusion Unit, 2001).

This qualitative research paper seeks to investigate the role(s) engineering industryinternships play in developing engineering professional identity for FGLI students.

widerange of responses, varying between 3 and 12. Since failure and frustration are intricate elementsof the engineering design cycle, we wanted to know how these children dealt with these twonegative experiences. Dealing with failure and frustration can reflect how the children sawthemselves. For example, Sarah, rating herself at 7, thought of these two components as a way tosee what went wrong. To this effect, she said: “I get a little bit frustrated, and I'd see what I didwrong. but I'm not totally okay with it [failure] because I just get a little frustrated because I didit like a bunch of times, and still don't know what [went] wrong”.Eliot, rating himself at 6, said that he normally “get[s] mad and figure[s] out how to make itwork”.

Ourgoal here is not to make a conclusive argument about the connection between research topics andcollaborations across universities but rather highlight that the changes in major research areas,for example, in response to funding opportunities, may play a role in connecting researchers withdifferent degrees of expertise across institutions; future research may examine suchmulti-variable relationships.References 1.
