Northeastern University, students are given a limited opportunity to gain real worldexperience while still in college through a co-operative education program. The coopexperience reinforces the learning experience and allows the student to focus on non-classroom aspects of a potential permanent career. The cooperative education programalso gives students an opportunity to expand education through an experience in a realcompany. The co-op student is treated like a member of the staff and althoughinvolvement with key company decisions and actions varies by company, the experienceusually includes a healthy mix of tasks. Although this is a valuable learning experience, itlacks depth, is limited in responsibility and generally uses the student in only a

actual problems. The place that thesetwo aspects of the syllabus come together is in the engineering laboratory. It is here that thestudent is presented with a concrete problem to be solved, and they learn to apply the lessons ofthe classroom. The larger goal is to prepare the graduate to enter today’s engineering professionwith not only the proper problem-solving strategies and skills, but also to have gained experiencethat can be directly transferred to the needs of the contemporary career. This means exposure tothe latest technologies and an understanding of their concepts and applications. Perhaps the most significant aspect of engineering practice in the last decades has beenthe impact of computer technology in practically every

The first of these provides a foundation in financial, human-resources, supply-chain, organizational and innovation aspects of the modern corporationthat are pertinent to the career of a new engineering employee. The second course goesinto more depth on these matters, and also touches on issues pertaining toentrepreneurship and business plans. Developing an understanding of how engineeringactivities fit into the broader social and business context is a complement to thiscurriculum initiative

2001: 25 A’s, 1 BSince an objective of the class is to retain students capable of handling the rigors of anengineering curriculum a question on the final exam is: “What engineering career (if any) areyou most interested in and why? If you are not sure, which ones are you vacillating between? Ifyou are not interested in engineering anymore, what do you want to major in, and why?” Theresults were: Fall 2000: 19 retained in engineering, 1 transfer to Business, and 1 undecided. Fall 2001: 23 retained in engineering, 1 transfer to English, and 2 undecided.The College of Engineering is currently developing a database to investigate retention issues.Part of this effort will be to follow up with these Honors freshmen to see how many

prepare engineering technology students for theirengineering career [5]. These projects are preferred by engineering technology programs for theirstudents who typically are more exposed to hands-on problems or applied engineering. On suchprojects, students learn to work with stakeholders to scope the project, clarify requirements, anditeratively work through the product realization to execute the project. Reifenberg and Long(2017) explain that industry-sponsored team capstone projects create value for the client and aremore valued by students. However, the broadly-defined nature of most client-based capstoneprojects can also lead to higher frustrations when the stakeholders (faculty members, sponsors,and student teams) are unable to develop and

It cultivates a diverse skill set, enabling them to adapt to evolvingtechnologies in fields like engineering and design. Understanding different processes, such asFused Deposition Modeling (FDM), Stereolithography (SLA), and Selective Laser Sintering(SLS), enhances problem-solving abilities and creativity [24, 25].

Mentors who doneed to terminate a student should approach the process thoughtfully, with the goal of makingthis a “teachable moment” for the student. While being fired from an undergraduate researchposition may be traumatic for the student, the long-term career impact is likely to be minimal andhopefully the student will learn from the experience. Mentors should take the time to providewritten feedback for the student, noting both
