This course is also readily scalable; if the demand from students increases, additionalsections can be created with more teams of faculty as instructors. A college the size of CoSET atSHSU has dozens of faculty members actively engaged in research, many with a list of problemswaiting for willing and qualified undergraduates to help solve.In fall 2018, the pilot version of this undergraduate research course was offered. Its target audiencewas second-year STEM majors with no experience with laboratory work or research. Fifteenstudents registered for the course from several different STEM departments (agricultural sciences,math, physics, engineering technology, chemistry

Learning towork as a part of a larger team in a long term project such as this is invaluable for an engineer’scareer as projects and designs in industry and laboratories are often multiple year collaborationsthat a single semester long class cannot adequately replicate.Aerospace Opportunities in Small Schools (Senior Author Perspective)Small universities and colleges are often limited in their ability to offer meaningful opportunitiesin systems engineering or multidisciplinary

Itwas found that 85% of the participants continued on to postgraduate education after finishingtheir undergraduate research. On the other hand, a small portion of the participants who didn’tcontinue to postgraduate studies also reported comparatively poor gains from their undergraduateresearch experience. Learning laboratory techniques, understanding the research process andreadiness for more demanding research were some of the positive effects of undergraduateresearch experience mentioned in the survey.

They found that students physically working withproblems and seeing how real systems operated were more compelling than traditional teachingpedagogies; students even seemed more enthusiastic about industrial engineering [21].

The decision to use a desk lamp was chosen basedon several criteria: • The device’s use and utility should be obvious to most any user; avoid devices requiring substantial domain knowledge (e.g., motor control), particularly since the target audience of students is broad (EE, CE, CS) • The device should have some state to manage, but that state should not be overly complicated • The device should be easily portable, so students can develop and use it in the classroom, home, dorm room, laboratory, or wherever they

Students work in a team environment once a week on laboratory projects and open-endedmini-design projects where they incorporate elementary engineering design methodologies todesign some device within certain constraints. Once students begin working on their final designprojects, they meet outside of class to brainstorm ideas, build and test prototypes, and refine theirfinal designs. The final project typically lasts five weeks. Due to budgetary constraints, studentsconstruct their project out of common scrap/recycled materials. The final projects vary bysemester
