The problem-based learning (PBL) model for this course integratesmathematics, economics, accounting, finance, communications, project management, andengineering technology instruction around a core of industry-related problems. [10] A uniqueaspect of this method is the use of curriculum materials to simulate professional practice andworkplace scenarios. [11] The course material notes that civil engineering (CE) problems requirestudents to grasp two aspects of CE practice, theory and procedure. A student may understandthe theory behind an application like economic equivalence, standard costing, or learning curvesbut applying that theoretical knowledge to solving a

These student projects also provided insights into howresearch on ceramics can be integrated in an engineering program that is not ceramic-intensive.There were many projects completed by students who were not participating in the HoltbyEndowed Chair program, but whose research may serve as a springboard for continued

By incorporating elements of equity, inclusion, anddiversity into the orientation curriculum, institutions can work to develop norms related tostudent interaction focused on tolerance, support, and cultural appreciation. These types ofactivities and connections, especially when completed early in the academic experience, areinstrumental in the development of students’ sense of belonging [35]. In addition, Tinto [13]found that social connection and integration with campus community can result in increasedretention rates and attributed that to feelings of connection and belonging to the institution.Using freshman
providing enough graduates with an appropriate background to work inthese areas. It may stem from the fact that wireless communications, DSP, and SDR are alltopics traditionally taught at the graduate level within Electrical and Computer Engineering(ECE). Thus, the majority of persons with the requisite knowledge and interest will be ECE MSand PhD graduates. While many ECE graduate level students are strong coders, softwaredevelopment skills are not the primary focus of traditional ECE programs, at least whencompared to that of a typical Computer Science (CS) curriculum. This results in a small pool ofcandidates for positions in wireless communications and SDR, made up of MS and PhDs in ECEwho happened to focus within the area of wireless

To overcome problems associated with intermittentinsolation, an insulated concrete tank is used for hot thermal storage. Additional concrete tankswithout insulation are used to store chilled water. These cold storage tanks are used as theprimary chilled water source to meet the cooling load, while the absorption chiller providesadditional cooling during peak load periods. The cold storage tanks are cooled by a district chillerat night when district chilled water demand and the cost of electricity are low.

: So I think in a lot of ways that's…the complexity of the soft [professional] skills. And it's funny when we talk about soft skills. We don't mean that they're lesser than hard [technical] skills. It's that they're less definable.While Dr. James acknowledged the importance of teaching professional skills, he faceddifficulties in integrating these skills into the classroom because of their complexity and lack ofclarity. Due to the perceived challenges of including professional skills in the curriculum, out-of-class activities were offered as an important complement.Faculty members believed that students with experience outside the classroom are betterprepared for their careers through the acquisition of professional skills
