Section Conferencedesign was economically feasible. However, the group followed the existing plan very closelyand pushed back when asked to investigate other methods as they had a feasible design.Group 5 focused much effort on alternative mining methods. The high water table made itimmediately apparent that traditional truck and shovel operations would be complicated. Thestudents knew of dredges but had no previous design work with them. They researched pipe sizesand pump characteristics required for the mining operation. They designed an onboard primarysizing circuit to reduce material handling costs and a discharge into the pit to eliminate finerecirculation. The initial box cut to float the dredge was another opportunity for novel ideas

Virtualworkshops continue to be held to further reach international audiences. The idea of makingsmall changes to incorporate process safety into any chemical engineering course remains acornerstone of the workshop with multiple breakout sessions designed to show faculty that thismethod can be done with relatively little effort while satisfying ABET outcomes. Furthermore,this can be done without department permission or making changes to the four-year plan. It ismy opinion that process safety should be a core chemical engineering course, but I also believethe more students are exposed to process

Overall, the goalof CNST 112 is to ensure that the students come out of the class equipped to read plans, doquantity takeoffs, and understand construction materials and methods.ChallengesChallenges faced by the instructor were the classroom setting and the huge amount of lecturematerials that were given by the previous instructor only a week prior to the beginning of thesemester.

But these programs areresource-intensive, normally involving substantial costs related to planning, staffing, housing,activities, and evaluation. It is important that institutions that sponsor – or that are consideringsponsoring – a SBP understand what program features contribute to accomplishing program goalsand, perhaps more importantly, which features may impede those goals.
