engineering. Of the nearly 2200 students enrolled at Mount Union, approximately 130are majoring in one of the engineering disciplines.A manufacturing science course is required for mechanical engineering students during thespring semester of their final year. The course is comprised of a 2-credit-hour course lecture anda 1-credit laboratory. Before spring semester of 2017, the course followed a more traditionalstructure. Readings were assigned out of a manufacturing textbook, the manufacturing processeswere described during traditional academic lectures, and tests were proctored to assess studentlearning. The 1-credit-hour lab was used to tour five local manufacturing facilities throughoutthe semester. A comparison between the 2016 and 2017 course

The laboratory experiments prepare students for performing electrical measurementsusing National Instruments MyDAQ which is a portable data acquisition device. The purpose of usingMyDAQs instead of conventional lab equipments is to allow students to work on their circuits outside thelab hours. Students are provided with MyDAQ devices in the first day of the class and they can use themat home or in the lab throughout the quarter. Moreover, students are exposed to working with simulationtools such as LTSpice, MATLAB and Simulink to simulate electrical circuits and to design signalprocessing algorithms.The course roadmap is shown in Table 1.

ScienceFoundation grant (Grant # ESI-9254358) from the Division of Elementary, Secondary, andInformal Education. The genesis of this concept was a conversation amongst chemicalengineering faculty members on what influenced them to major in engineering. Almostuniformly the conclusion was that it was an influential teacher (usually in math or science) thatgot them started. While the influence of this teacher led to an interest in science, how thisultimately resulted in majoring in engineering was never as clear cut. To eliminate thisuncertainty we submitted a proposal to bring math or science teachers to the WSU campus for asummer to work along side engineers in their research laboratories to get a clear idea of whatengineers do. The teachers, in addition to
