However, historically these terms have very different meanings. The meaning of the word “science” comes from the

describe the expected assessments.Research QuestionsIn the 2015-2016 academic year, engineering faculty at the University identified a need to helpstudents prepare for their first engineering courses as sophomores. The ideal solution wouldprovide course preparation by reinforcing background information and introduce topics to becovered in the first few weeks of the fall semester. In addition, the preparation was intended tobe voluntary and accessible to any student who chose to participate. The material is offered at noadditional cost to the students. Students also do not receive academic credit. With this in mind,we identified the summer as an ideal preparation time for students, much like the summer bridgeprograms that exist at many universities

This grounding in real world applicationscan be used to show the value of materials science to those experiencing it for the first time,assisting educators in increasing the field’s interest. The records and associated properties werechosen with a high school audience in mind; all are common in everyday life so personalconnections can be readily made.

They internalized that support as recognition of their potential to be successful. Indeed,the power in the faculty role was described by Jake when he shared, “I was still kind of like onefoot out, one foot in, in terms of engineering.

The pumparrived on schedule; however, getting the clear acrylic pump volute machined properly soonproved to be more time consuming than predicted.

The proposed changes are based on numerousreports and studies that have examined the issue of outsourcing. These proposed changesare already taking place at many US institutions. While it is not expected that the numberof ECE professional would go back to the peak levels of 1987, it is crucial that ECEcurricula respond to outsourcing by graduating creative engineers that aremultidisciplinary team leaders, knowledge generators, system level designers, and thatare globally aware, business minded, and strong in the fundamentals.References[1] http://www.itpaa.org/modules.php?name=News&file
