Each field has its own specific “industrial strength” computer program packages used for design, analysis and operations. Students should gain experience using the ones in their fields. • Design, economics, process control and laboratory: These are all topics that have close ties to industrial and/or research laboratory practices. They can be very different, however, depending on what industry or research area they are tied to. The design process for a large-scale, continuous petrochemical

The mechanism used for such an objective has been an individualdevelopment plan (IDP) specifically tailored for undergraduates and first-year graduate students,complemented with a faculty mentoring program.The main research question driving this initiative is identifying how the exercise of bringing sucha tool to early study program engineering LIATS in an HSI could impact their success indicatorsand understanding the IDP influence in the mentor-mentee relationship.This paper presents the process of developing

students.Three years ago an idea was hatched to start a multi-disciplinary design studio involvingarchitecture and architectural engineering students from two different campuses. One waslocated on the west coast and the other in the Midwest. The premise was to collaborate on adesign competition and form teams of structural and architectural design majors. Thepartnership for the lead instructors was formed years earlier as each worked together on abuilding project when one practiced architecture and the other structures. As both individualsmoved into academia there was an impetus to create a class that emulated the real world designprocess. To help transition this relationship into academia, the two instructors would sit ondesign review juries together

The intent of this decision was to provide the education and training for the graduatestudents but also to attract interested undergraduates into the microsystems field with the hopethat they would continue on to graduate school with a microsystems research emphasis. The University of Utah is on the semester system and the College of Engineeringtraditionally offers courses at the graduate level that contain three semester credit hours ofcontent.

Globallearning, in this sense, extends beyond a simple definition of the term to denote a preoccupationwith internationalism, but instead connotes a whole host of ideas, which Kevin Hovland argues,better prepares students to apply their technical expertise, and thus open “the door for democraticpractice and social responsibility at the experiential level.”11The project introduced herein is seeking to improve the ability of Civil and EnvironmentalEngineering graduates from the University of Utah to have an impact in a global society byapplying their knowledge, skills, and aptitudes

The practices in Table A have been shown to have a particularly large and robust impacton learning in undergraduate STEM courses (see, e.g., Wieman and Gilbert, 2014). The literature onteaching indicates that practices in Table B promote learning also, but with less impact than those in TableA. Hence, evaluators should pay particular attention to the practices in Table A that the instructor choosesto implement in their course.Not all practices described in Tables A and B are appropriate for every course.
