research course developed by a University ofArkansas engineering professor, Dr. Kevin Hall. Informally dubbed ‘research lite,’ the aim of thiscourse was to demystify the research process. Pre-course surveys tested students on theirunderstanding of what doing research meant and the role of ethics in research. It also askedstudents about their own research experiences (if any) and their perceptions about engaging inresearch in the future and the value of doing research at all.Meeting each Wednesday afternoon for 3 hours, Dr. Hall walked the students through the purposeof research, the scientific method, a description of and the importance of ethical conduct, andcommunication of results.

The National Academy of Engineering’s the Engineer of2020 identifies lifelong learning, practical ingenuity, analytic skills, business management,creativity, cognitive flexibility, ethics, leadership, professionalism, and communication as theknowledge and skills that will be valuable for engineers in the future.

Responses were compared between2013, during which EE422 and EE464 were only loosely tied together, and 2014-2015, afterEE422 material was formally connected with EE464 and continued to be applied in EE465.
