He has presented his work nationally and internationally and has publications in several peer-reviewed journals. Currently, he is investigating the kinetics of nanoparticle dissolution at the mesocontinuum level using the phase field method. The goal is to develop a com- prehensive, theoretical and numerical strategy to predict the dissolution kinetics of small particles from experimentally measurable parameters to accelerate the particle engineering process during formulation development. Example applications include researching the effects of engineered particle size distribu- tions in solid dosage

A qualitative analysis showed that students mainly chose topursue a baccalaureate degree in engineering due to the financial reward, family influences,faculty support, and early childhood interest. Furthermore, students’ motivation to continue topursue an engineering degree was attributed to prestige, engineering experiences acquired,financial and academic support, faculty and peer support, and gain of engineering knowledgethroughout their academic journey.Implications of the study were: a) a set of small samples of data was analyzed, and b)examination of students belonging to a specific cohort.

However, returnersrepresent a relatively small proportion of engineering PhD students and the limited researchabout their experiences suggests they may face particular challenges in their doctoral studiescompared to their direct-pathway peers (students who pursue a PhD shortly after theirundergraduate education). In an effort to learn more about returners’ perspectives, experiences,research, and approaches to engineering problem solving, our team designed and implementedwhat is, to our knowledge, the first large-scale mixed-methods study comparing returning anddirect-pathway engineering PhD students.

of reading,they must be made aware of the immediate benefit of coming to class prepared with somebackground knowledge of topics to be discussed and their transformation from passive toactive learners.Improvement of self-confidence from reading assignments is one of the chief benefits that isusually not talked about in engineering classes. Background knowledge gained from pre-classreading assignments prepares students for active class discussion and helps them transformfrom a passive to an active learner. Within a positive and supportive class environment, itcould help students earn more recognition and respect from their peers. It boosts students'self-confidence, which results in better student engagement and performance in class. Thisbrings
