. The planetary gearset is the centerpiece of thebench-scale hybrid powertrain, which our students are completing over the course of fivesemesters. With the successful completion of the planetary gearset, our students are now readyto begin tackling the challenge of developing an overall control strategy for the hybrid system.AcknowledgementsThe authors wish to acknowledge the support of the NSF-TUES program in the Division ofUndergraduate Education, DUE-1044532, which made this research possible.

Connellnotes that gender is not a supposedly biologically-obvious division between men and women, butinstead the way human society collectively makes relevant these reproductive distinctions Page 26.1007.5between human bodies in a social context. For us, the context is engineering education. In its  simplest form, gender reflects the set of characteristics, behaviors, and practices that we think ofas “feminine” or “masculine” – characteristics that any individual biological male or female mayor may not embody.Race, like gender, is not a biological category but a social one. And unlike sex, race has nobiological basis, despite a

experience with Electrical and Mechanicalengineering students enrolled in one course. The biggest conclusion from their study was thatstudents struggled to manage their time appropriately to finish the projects, but were able tocomplete them on time. In this case, the students were charged with creating a complete roboticsystem, not just a subsystem component that would interface to a base unit. They alsohighlighted the importance of using PBL as a tool to put the theoretical content of a class into areal life context.Maxwell and Meedem3 reported in their article the perceptions of students who participated in a1999 robotics competition. One of the students reported enjoying learning to work in a team. Thestudent also reflected on the importance of

It would also connect this lab to the bear- ing lab.□ Learning about gears has encouraged me to think about other mechanical components and how they are made. I would like to learn how real gears are machined. Seems like it would be very specialized manufacturing. Could students be asked to make real components, such as gears and bearings. These ideas and suggestions are a source of new lab activities. Although some are easier thanothers to implement, many are worthwhile and reflect a deep understanding of gear concepts.

It was found that this approach produces students whoare better prepared for their senior design projects and engineering practice. Students noted anincrease in their understanding of machine design concepts as an integration of all their priorpreparatory training. The effectiveness of the revised course structure was evaluated through asurvey of previous and current students.Introduction and backgroundPrior to 2011, one of the common concerns of the Mechanical Engineering department’s seniorstudents was the inability to “engineer” or practice “design

National Science Foundation is to support “basic scientific researchand research fundamental to the engineering process.” This doesn’t mean that NSF willsupport any kind of research, as long as it is of high quality. Rather, the perspective atNSF is that they are funding things in the national good [5]. Since it is not possible tosupport all high-quality research, priorities need to be established. This involvestradeoffs between activities that may not be directly comparable. Is solving an openproblem in cybersecurity more important than, say, developing better methods to makebuildings earthquake safe?

The roles of teaching and research are relatively concrete in disciplinary standards, butservice is more ambiguous. This paper reflects on the service and outreach of prior generationsof Ph.D.-holding engineers to more fully interrogate the idea of what service means in thecontext of being an expert in the field.
