However, classes for the major include manywriting assignments: lab reports, essays about issues in the profession, various structure or sitedescriptions (e.g. visiting and describing a bridge for a bridge engineering class), design reports,proposals, tech memos, and numerous other writing tasks. In their capstone design course,students work on a design project for a real client with whom they meet. Some other coursesinvent client contexts for writing – for example, framing a homework analysis problem as aclient’s request for an investigation, with the results presented in a tech memo written to theclient.Ten engineering consulting firms in the

In addition, the Honors College would like to increase the number ofstudents completing their Honors Capstone (senior thesis). To respond to these goals, an“Introduction to STEM Research” course was developed and taught. This course was broadlydesigned to group mentor the students into the research process, prepare them for the subsequentin-laboratory research experience, and scaffold them towards completion of the Honors program.This course is broadly focused to provide a general approach to research and graduate schoolpreparation appropriate for all majors in the Engineering College and other programs in

courses'competitive nature.Engagement is one of the main factors that can be used to predict academic success. An engagedstudent is more likely to have short-term goals such as an intention to participate in an internshipprogram or long-term goals such as intentions to pursue graduate studies or move into the technicalworkforce. Tutoring sessions, field trips, and research projects have been introduced to theundergraduate engineering student's curriculum ostensibly to increase engagement. Peerdiscussions in undergraduate courses have helped develop the personal and social skills to thrivein an engineering major. Peer discussions seem to enhance student learning compared with coursesthat do not allow peer discussions [2]. Capstone projects serve as a great

Authors believe that it ishigh time that the discussed surface parameters, tools, filters and mathematical modeling ofmethods be included in all design, manufacturing and capstone project courses (freshmenthrough senior year). A better educated workforce would be able to contribute significantlyhigher to quality tools and advanced metrology. It is an evolutionary process, i.e., standards keepconstantly changing; however, it must transition smoothly into the curriculum. It is imperativethat course instructors keep up to date with the latest standards, and implement them as shortinteractive modules. In an ongoing effort, based upon the contents of this paper, the authors havemade several instructional modules on surface finish. These modules

Generally missing from these macro-phenomena courses is any discussion of theinstruments, valves, feedback controllers and sequential logic needed to operate these units. Thefinal capstone macro-phenomena course, usually called “Process Design” or “Plant Design”,requires the students to tie together many unit operations to create a full process, which ismodelled, sized, and costed. This course has little time to discuss how the simultaneousoperation of many unit operations is to be coordinated by a
