eight designers in industry who were invited to evaluate senior design projects in the fall of2019. They appreciated the addition of large interdisciplinary teams with increased complexityand scope, but noted that those projects were in a completely different category from thoseproduced by smaller single-discipline teams. They added that they were only interested inreviewing the interdisciplinary projects.References[1] S. Datar, D. Garvin, & P.

engineering students with engineering experiences in multiple disciplines isby incorporating a hands-on lab component into the course to introduce various activities fromdiffering disciplines of engineering [3].Course and Lab BackgroundFirst-Year Engineering Honors LabThe first-year engineering program at Ohio State University was the result of the university’smembership in a coalition in the early 1990’s encouraging college engineering programs toengage students in more engineering experiences in their first year. The goal of the first-yearengineering experience is to introduce new engineering students to a variety of engineeringdisciplines and teach them basic technical skills through a variety of in-class activities, labs, anddesign experiences
should have pressed harder to develop the initial, pre-draft outcome rubrics to allow moretime for the constituent survey as the committee would have liked more responses to consider.Nonetheless, a survey open for two weeks is better than no survey. This survey proved critical as it wasused by the CEBOK3TC to determine which outcome statements should be revised and to develop theappropriate levels of achievement for the outcomes.Following the first full draft of the CEBOK3 outcome rubrics, the CEBOK3TC developed and conducted afinal survey seeking input on the outcomes. The survey was structured to allow respondents to providefeedback only on the outcomes they wished to review. Once the respondent selected the outcome(s) ofinterest, they were
alsotake an associated thematic independent research course to investigate thoroughly previousresearch in the selected theme. All Ph.D. students must undertake a doctoral research project,preferably in the second summer semester of study. This course introduces students to therequirements of management research. Finally, students work on the dissertation, an originalinvestigation of a research question(s) related to technology management.The minimum curriculum requirements are: Management Core Courses (15 credit hours) Technology Management Courses (9 credit hours) Associated Doctoral Seminars (12 credit hours) Research Methods Courses (12 credit hours) Independent Research Project (3 credit hours) Doctoral

executable and choosing which tools to use. The next phase entailed identifying 3how the executable functioned and how to isolate malicious segments of code. Finally, studentsimplemented and tested their own additional modifications. Most students do not have previous experience with reverse engineering binary executables,so the first step is an exploration of the different tools available for reverse engineering software.A preliminary search reveals both IDA (particularly IDA Pro) and BinaryNinja as the most usedplatforms. Free demo versions are available for both softwares, and these are the ones most usedby students. Once a platform(s) is chosen, students must explore what settings and views
