As the field of AM continues to expand across various industries, educationalinstitutions will increasingly emphasize hands-on experience with cutting-edge AM technologies.This applied approach will involve not only operating AM machines but also understanding theentire steps of the production technologies, from design, simulation, material selection, and post-processing, to inspection and quality control.Furthermore, the integration of AM education into traditional engineering curricula is expectedto grow from technical courses to capstone projects [66][67]. Engineering and technologystudents will be exposed to processing

Significant milestones in this area include the development of an effective model of re- ciprocal ”exploratory trips” to motivate international study in engineering; the International Engineering and Natural Sciences certificate program; and the Global Engineering College project, an NSF-funded exploration of a comprehensively internationalized curricular model for engineering education. These efforts culminated in 2010 with the creation of the Global Science and Engineering Program (GSEP), an innovative initiative to establish a comprehensive

The course consists of three lectures andone lab section per week. It covers topics such as statistical data analysis, experimental design,and measurement of engineering quantities such as pressure, temperature, strain, fluid flow, andheat transfer. Seven lab experiments are performed in teams of 3-4 students during the course ofthe term. Each team is also required to do a term project in which they design, execute, andreport on a measurement experiment of their choosing. These projects have ranged frommeasurements of

The success of the outreach competition has beenoverwhelming and the experience our undergraduates have received has been invaluable to their success intheir senior capstone projects as well as in their job searches. Although we are just ending our second year of the implementation (this year we taught anadditional 250 students), we had over 450 students from 15 schools use some of the ROV curriculum wedeveloped to learn about STEM, and then design and build ROVs, and later use those ROVs in the secondUtah ROV Competition.

Of particular interest is whether the presence of a prototype exemplar contaminatesthe design process for novice designers. That is, does the prototype exemplar cause novicedesigners to fixate on particular design features thereby limiting creativity or does it help them toimprove the performance of their designs?The concept of designers fixating on particular design features is not new to the study ofengineering design. Jansson and Smith1 were among the first who “clearly and

An engineer must proficiently demonstrate these skills upon graduation,and it is necessary to equip the student with resources and a curriculum to learn practicalcommunication skills.The typical engineer will spend one-third to one-half of their working day writing reports, andthe engineering curriculum should prepare students for such tasks [3, 4]. Despite the recognizedimportance of technical writing, students often struggle due to a disconnect between academicinstruction and industry expectations.

ranging from the curriculum requirements of non-engineering courses andengineering capstone projects to the need for engineering instructors to be less negative and moreinformed about the best way to create equitable team projects and articulate their outcomes. Oneof the key recommendations was that students saw the need for and welcomed more suchopportunities to vocalize their concerns and collaborate together in a safe space. It was evidentthat the peer-facilitators were clearly able to convey the goals of the FGs and encourage an open-conversation.3.3 Data Analysis of Open-Ended Questions on Surveys of FG Participants and PeerFacilitators3.3.1 Survey One: Evaluations of the FGs by Student Participants and Peer Facilitators Immediately

As part of the course in which the activity analyzed here took place, afinal exam was administered and it included a question that was related to the socio-technicalactivity discussed in this paper. Future analysis of this data could provide a glimpse into short-term retention of socio-technical systems thinking demonstrated by the students. Moreover,about 4-6 semesters after the students take this course, they enroll in their capstone final project. 12The project is highly technical and includes a stakeholder analysis. Getting
