The students were free to select what part of their work wouldbe 3-D-printed and how that item would be incorporated into the overall sculpture. This resultedin a variety of choices by the students.In Figure 5, the 3-D-printed pieces were balloons, mounted above plaster mountains. The twomedia (plastic and plaster) were thus physically separated. The artist (Student A) provided thefollowing commentary about their piece: “It is ironic that humans live within a physical body, but what makes us human is what we carry in our minds and heads. I decided to abstractly apply this idea to my project. The mountainous landscape below the balloons represent[s] our physical

since the 1950’s and developed in response to engineering programs becoming more andmore theoretical in nature [3-4]. The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) has acontinuum model demonstrating the overlap in an engineering education as opposed to anengineering technology one [3]. An engineer’s education resides more on the analysis side of thecontinuum, and engineering technology on the production. The middle area shared by bothdisciplines are the activities associated with design and development. Therefore, the roles of anengineer and engineering technologist can overlap. Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET)has different forms across the United States. At New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT),MET is a focused program for
