The operating budgetreceives its funds from the service of teaching full-time undergraduates. Since the plan called fora limited number of enterprises in the beginning, HSE received initial funding of $25,000.An important question was whether to consider the initial funding to be a grant, a loan, or aninvestment. If provided as an investment, the center would expect HSE to return a portion of theprofits, which in turn would help cover the costs of providing services to HSE.

specifically, hypothesis-driven orfundamental research is generally not conducted or encouraged to a large extent as part the degree.Such a practice is not because engineering technology students do not have the aptitude forconducting research, but rather the constraints of coursework and the associated laboratory practicelargely prohibits it from a time/resource standpoint. Tackling a research problem as a high-impactlearning experience will be especially beneficial to engineering technology students since many ofthe solutions that they are tasked to seek out as part of their normal job responsibilities involve theactivities of inquiry, hypothesizing, reasoning, etc., in other words, essential components of research.This paper is an exploration of

Thecommonly employed lecture based pedagogy of the 20th century is being replaced by variousexperiential teaching strategies. Part of the motivation for this change in pedagogy is inresponse to the changing needs of today’s students. Many of the engineering students today havevery little hands-on engineering experience and have been trained to learn differently as a resultof multi media and other technology. Another motivator for the change in pedagogy isassociated with a change in the engineering profession. Engineers today need not only betechnically sound, but also have good

Industry though, isnow also looking to Universities for research. “As companies decrease the size and scope of theirinternal research laboratories, companies are increasingly turning to universities for basicresearch.
