theMassachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Radiation Laboratory, and many other researchinstitutions. In the mid-1940s, the library was also designated as a depository for the Army MapServices. In 1950, the Georgia Tech Library was made a Depository for the Atomic EnergyCommission (AEC), together with fifty or so other research libraries. Reports from AEC weremade available to engineers, scientists, industrialist and others to help foster scientific researchand industrial development in Georgia and the southeast region. Under Crosland’s direction, theLibrary also added reports from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), theOffice of Scientific Research and Development (OSRD), which was superseded by the NationalDefense Research

Institute. His research, which is supported by the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation, aims to develop a treatment for the millions of Americans suffering from myocardial infarction and other cardiovascular diseases. In May of 2012, he co-founded a company based on some of the pioneering technology developed in his laboratory. Prof. Gaudette also teaches biomedical engineering design and innovation, biomechanics and physiology. He promotes the development of the entrepreneurial mindset in his students through support provided by the Kern Family Foundation. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017

Computer Engineering (ECE) and was named the Roanoke Electric Steel Professor in 2016. Prior to joining VT, he was a professor of ECE at the University of New Mexico (UNM) from 1994 to 2013, and most recently the Interim Department Chair and the Endowed Chair Professor in Microelectronics there. Before 1994, Dr. Lester worked as an engineer for the General Electric Electronics Laboratory in Syracuse, New York for 6 years where he worked on transistors for mm-wave applications. There in 1986 he co-invented the first Pseudomorphic HEMT, a device that was later highlighted in the Guinness Book of World Records as the fastest transistor. By 1991 as a PhD student at Cornell, he researched and developed the first strained

(2015-2016) I have the privilege of being a Course Assistant for three classes at Stanford: (1) E14: Introduction to Solid Mechanics; (2) BIOE51: Anatomy for Bioengineers; (3) BIOE80: Introduction to Bioengineering and Engineering Living Matter. I also have pleasure of serving as the Safety and Operations Manager at the Volkswagen Automotive Innovation Laboratory, which includes managing the machine shop and teaching students how to use the machinery. In this role I am able to advise and educate students on design choices for their personal and research projects from ideation phases to functional products, with an emphasis on design and manufacturing techniques. c American Society for

’ weekly homework scores, twomidterms, and a final examination. The course objectives are to explore fundamental electrical quantities,components, and concepts, and to develop ad hoc and systematic tools for circuit analysis. The learningtopics covered are: circuit variables; sources, resistors, and Ohm’s law; ad hoc, nodal, and loop analysis;scaling and superposition; the Thévenin-Norton and maximum power theorems; operational amplifiers;capacitors, inductors, and mutual inductance; first-order transient analysis; phasor analysis; and sinusoidalpower analysis. The course has no laboratory component but includes several direct-current, transientand alternating-current circuit simulation (Multisim) assignments. The teaching assistants’ main role

learning that also helps todevelop lateral and vertical thinking [27, 28, 29]. In addition, pedagogical research has shownthat this thinking should be integrated into a specific context [21]. Exploring different solutionsto project design creates lateral thinking, while choosing a solution develops vertical thinking.The project in Lima, which consisted of finding solutions for Asentamientos Humanos, wasdesigned with this learning technique. This engineering project also showed students from PennState the importance of being globally articulate and engaged. The students worked for abouttwo weeks on this project with 5 students from Universidad Nacional de Ingenieria in Peru in afabrication laboratory (FabLab) of another institution, Universidad
