theirfuture courses.IntroductionProject-based learning (PBL) is a dynamic method to inspire students to obtain a deeperunderstanding of the subjects, apply and integrate knowledge they are studying. Through PBL,students build a broader base of knowledge and skills to innovative solutions [1]. It places a lot ofweight on students’ involvement during their study. The approach is usually used in junior orsenior design courses. Undergraduate students sometimes get a sense of boredom with theory inlower level course classrooms. PBL functions to reduce a sense of boredom and lack of purposeor relevance for students. It teaches students to explore and solve real-world problems andencourages students’ desire to learn.

Although most of our tenure-track and tenured faculty have construction industry experience, few have more than 5 years ofconstruction experience. We have found that the more industry experience a faculty member canbring into the classroom to supplement the core coursework, the better the students master thecontent. When students make the connection between course materials and real-life situations,they realize the importance of what they are learning.

These tools are useful for both teaching and research in fieldsoutside of ECE, but require the traditional understanding of basic electrical circuits andprogramming methodology in order to be effective. This dilemma led to development of a coursefor non-engineers to allow such technologies to be used effectively. Students participated from adiverse array of fields, including agriculture, animal science, biology, finance, fine arts, physicsand statistics. The pedagogical approach used was a combination of traditional short lectures,hands-on small lab projects performed in two-person student teams, and a team-selected specialproject

Because of this, universities are looking for alternative ways to maintain research and development programs, laboratories, and even faculty so that they might attract the best and brightest students and retain the students that they currently have. Also, ways to stretch current budgets without diminishing the quality of the education must be explored. • Industry realizes that the universities are essential for training the workforce that they will someday employ.
