proposed Environmental Engineering BOK.IntroductionInternational Science and Engineering (S&E) partnerships for research and educationare essential for maintaining U.S. competitiveness in the 21st century (NationalScience Board, 2008) and existing engineering program outcomes like globalization,contemporary issues, and sustainability lay the foundation upon which these neededinternational partnerships can be built. Unfortunately, a recent survey of engineeringundergraduates found that less than 2% viewed globalization and contemporary issuesas one of the five most important engineering outcomes and only 30-36% felt “well”or “very well” prepared to incorporate global context or contemporary issues intoengineering practice respectively (Atman

/C planes, flies subsonic at very low Reynolds numbers. Anotherconsideration is thickness to chord ratio. While thicker wings have more drag, thicker wingsoffer advantages in other areas.5 The added volume gives space for fuel storage, structural load-bearing members, electronics, and control mechanisms. After scouring books for airfoils, the S8036 airfoil was selected because of its gradualdrag polar. According to Lyon, at Reynolds Number 400,000, the S8036's drag coefficient doesnot increase noticeably with the lift coefficient until a very extreme lift coefficient is achieved.7This relationship is ideal because the UAV operates over a range of velocities, and is, therefore,conducive to a slight, gradual change in drag with lift

With the exception of ‘demonstratesknowledge’ TAs A and B outperform TA E by approximately 1 point. TA E was expected tohave an equal if not higher score on ‘demonstrates knowledge’ because TA E is a post-doctoral.The data, as shown in Figure 1, suggests that TA E does not effectively demonstrate properties ofintellectual merit, which may be a consequence of limited understanding of the importance ofintellectual merit on teaching effectiveness.
