by having them present a poster or talk about their research at the end of 6-weekprogram. The practitioner of the program felt that if a presentation had to be done it would takethe GREaT GradS away from the lab. The GREaT GradS deliverables were designed to helpstudents think big picture about why they were in graduate school and how graduate schoolcould help them achieve their long-term professional goals. The students had three deliverablesto complete, which were (1) set up a LinkedIn profile, (2) send their resumé or CV to thecoordinator, and (3) conduct an informational interview. The objectives of completing thesedeliverables were to set the students up for professional and career success and not to beoverwhelmed during the summer

. To overcome the aforementioned drawbacks of different capstone design patterns, thereform of the capstone design course was conducted at the School of MechanicalEngineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University. This reform focuses on cultivatingengineering students by paying attention to both individual and team abilities. This paperpresents the methodology of the redesign of capstone design course in Shanghai Jiao TongUniversity, and the results of a three years’ practice of the capstone design course are alsoanalyzed.2. Related Works Prior research reported capstone design and courses’ positive impact on developingengineering students’ both professional and comprehensive quality and ability, includingmore competitive employability skills [4

These process help students discover design variables and processvariables [21]. The design process proceeds as students reflect on design and process decisionsmade and how these choices subsequently impacted the performance of their soft robot fingers.After two iterations of finger design and fabrication, students combine their literature findingsand empirical discoveries in a decision matrix to evaluate the best design for their gripper.Students select an approach and design, fabricate their gripper, and test their gripper

Since the design project is a continuation of all the past years of research, the saved timeallows for things such as automation and novel techniques to aid in the conducting of the currentresearch. Additionally, side research areas and problems can be developed that, at this point,should be entirely original and worthy of a graduate thesis. To this end, the senior level projectshould far exceed expectations and be at a leading level. Additionally, as there has beenextensive practice on technical writings through the writing of grants and publishable results, thetechnical reports

In the third author’sexperience in running a regional S&E fair, schools with higher poverty rates and fewer schoolresources are less likely to hold school-level fairs at all. When these schools do hold fairs andsend students to the regional competition, the projects are noticeably lower in quality fromstudents who come from better

As these frameworks are familiar to most faculty in the US not leastbecause of ABET accreditation, they provide a common reference point for thinking aboutcomparable KSA frameworks for graduate programs, especially Ph.D. programs. This isfollowed by a survey of reports over the past decade calling for reform of the doctorate in theUS, Canada, UK, Europe, and Australia with a focus on being more explicit about developingbroader graduate attributes.

Education, 2017 Switching Midstream, Floundering Early, and Tolerance for Ambiguity: How Capstone Students Cope with Changing and Delayed ProjectsAbstractIndustry-sponsored projects are a staple of senior capstone design, and provide our advanced levelstudents with valuable real-world experience. Because of the many players involved in an industrial-sponsored project, there are occasionally changes of scope or project goal adjustments that may occurmidstream; this can be frustrating to students, despite best practices in selecting and vetting all projectsources. Similarly, there have been research-based as well as industry-based projects that have been slowto launch, taking an inordinate amount of time in the first of the two capstone
