The process of selection of the industry practitioners, andtheirs and students’ feedbacks on this model are assessed. This teaching model was applied ina newly founded Construction Management program at the University of Wyoming. Theprogram developed this teaching model as a supplementary feature for attaining AmericanCouncil for Construction Education (ACCE) accreditation status by Spring 2022.

This paper studies industry need for graduate knowledge and skill in fluid mechanics area and presents an ongoing curriculum reform process to transform an existing fluid mechanics course to a fluid power course. A multi-mode student learning process is developed and course is reformed to support an interactive pedagogical methodology. Beyond current teaching methods, tools are developed to foster a flexible inductive learning through hands-on applications. A multipurpose laboratory equipped with fluid power process, sensors, data acquisition system, and application programs is being developed. A series of laboratory practices based on use of fluid mechanics principles in industrial applications would

from it. There is no doubt that it is a great idea toteach a data mining course in computer science curriculum. As you can tell, students taking adata mining course need to have background in quite a few areas to be successful. Not everystudent taking this course may have the background required in all these areas. The question ishow can an instructor remedy the challenge of teaching a group of students with widely-rangingbackgrounds, and at what level should this course be taught. Furthermore, the issue of groupwork arises, specifically as to whether data mining course projects should be accomplishedindividually or as teams.Studies show that many universities are teaching data mining course(s) within their computersscience curriculum.

This project provides an environment in which the students are very invested in theexperimental design process yet prevents them from being overwhelmed by having to manage anentire project.As the students enter into the final two years of the curriculum, they are presented with moreopen-ended projects in which they are required to

Ninety-nine percent of boys and 97% of girls aged between 12-17 play videogames.” In a survey conducted in the United States with 25,544 teachers, 65% of teachers wereinterested in the use of games in the classroom4.Serious games can be used for education at all levels, from preschool and elementary school,through middle school and high school, into higher education, and even into the job market.

The paper proceeds in the following ways. First, we discuss the growing literature on the rolesand required skills for engineers followed by the integrated management and economics instruction aspart of integrating engineering and management education. In the third section, the paper discusses ourexperience of
