laser power have most significant effect on the density of the fabricated parts Wanget al. (2016).To improve quality characteristics of fabricated parts and the economy of the process, DMLS hybridmilling (DMLS-HM) was introduced. In DMLS-HM process, an end mill with very high spindle speedand high feeding rate is incorporated with the laser sintering to attain high-precision machining. Thesintering and milling of the part is repeated to build from bottom to top layers of a complex part shape.Compared to conventional DMLS, there is limited study on the evaluation of mechanical properties ofparts fabricated with DMSL-HM process. This research project is aimed at characterizing non-agedMaraging steel 300 (MS 300) parts fabricated with DMLS-HM

Students understood that growth mindset was not an all or nothingswitch to be flipped.These findings are useful for educators interested in promoting productive beliefs about thenature of intelligence. Future work in this area will include an exploration of how these beliefschange over the undergraduate experience and the development of concrete strategies forstudents to begin to implement growth mindset within an engineering education context.BackgroundThe National Academy of Engineering provides us with a particular vision for the Engineer of2020, and these students will be graduating in just a few short years.

Additionally, critical thinking and perseverance are impacted through project-based learning.

The design process is also complicated bythe safety, practicality and cost constraints. In light of these challenges, the engineering educationneeds to maintain its focus on principles of engineering design that can effectively prepareengineering graduates to meet the challenges posed by rapid technological growth in engineeringand manufacturing technologies. The effectiveness of engineering education in modeling anddesign courses, traditionally, is measured through quizzes, exams and course projects that areaimed at measuring level of developed skills.
