One 3rd-4th year student and one 4th-graduation student chose “slightly disagree”indicating that perhaps participating in such a program during earlier academic years would haveproven helpful in determining a career path.Figure 2In the survey, students were given three prompts to reflect on their experience.

Because of the rigid and time-bound structure of the program,the mentors had to ensure the plan was achievable within eight-weeks and that the intern wouldhave data to present at the conclusion of their summer internship. Additionally, the interns’limited background knowledge and lack of research experience required that mentors createprojects that specifically fit their abilities. This is supported by the following evaluation data: It has strengthened my ability in terms of developing a research project that is tractable for a fresh person to come in and contribute

According to Stark and Lattuca (1997), it is not only a subsetof courses in a study plan, but also its content, the course sequence, the students, the teaching-learning processes, the evaluations, the resources, and the necessary adjustments to improve itsresults. Thus, curriculum design and evaluation should consider multiple factors, such as thelearning environments and the interactions between teachers and students [18], [19].

A course instructor was responsible for all of the groups’work and each team was assigned a faculty member as coach. The projects have always been realprojects for clients with real needs.Early in capstone projects, the groups’ work often required the expertise of a faculty member tomentor field and lab work even though that faculty member was not the team coach or courseinstructor. The field and lab work can be of lesser quality because the teams failed to adequatelyuse the faculty expert to plan their work.

The expected outcome is anassembly of the structure that can be viewed from both the inside and outside. The “top-down” approach,which divides a completed monument into multiple stages, is useful for defining the overall plan of thestructure, but presents a risk of large amounts of data slowing down the simulation process. In contrast, the“bottom-up” approach, which creates the structure in a piecewise fashion, may
