There are many students of minoritized identities (suchas women and racial/ethnic minoritized students) who are not directly admitted into the[SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING], but instead are admitted to the L&S division.

Antarctica is the main habitat of the penguins. Antarctica as the coldest place onEarth has a very short summer and a very long winter. In winter, the average temperatures rangebetween -20 ◦C in the coastal strip and -70 ◦C in the continent, while in the summer the averagetemperatures range between 0 ◦C along the coast and -35 ◦C in the continent3. The core temperatureof a penguin is about 36.9 degrees Celsius. Most of the penguins swim underwater at around 1.8 to3.1 m/s, but the fastest penguin, Gentoo (Pygoscelis Papua), can reach top speeds of 9.8 m/s

The wind speed recommended for most wind turbines is around 3.5 m/s. In thisresearch, it was found that the campus's wind data was above 4 m/s. Also, by being able to recorddata at different heights here at Prairie View and comparing it to previous years were consistent. Amast was set up to collect wind speed at different elevations (Figure 3). The system was developedfor processing data faster (also combined utilized Equation 1) than the commercial system (Figure4).

engineering curriculum todemonstrate to engineers, scientists and other technical professionals how to systematicallydisassemble and analyze an assembly, as well as its components. In the early 1990’s, the Instituteof Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) first introduced these concepts of reverseengineering and product dissection, thus making them cornerstones of introductory engineeringcourses. Many studies have been conducted in introductory and undergraduate level engineeringcourses, finding that virtual product dissection can be used as a proxy for physical dissection inorder to have an impact on learning and creativity.While these studies have been systematic in nature, they have only explored product dissection inundergraduate co-located
