Students are expectedto individually own portions of the final product, while collaborating in a team environment.Progress through the milestones is monitored through weekly status meetings with a graduatestudent manager and with supervising faculty. Another important dimension of the project is therequirement for frequent interaction with external vendors in order to develop the most accuratecost model for the project design. One industry connection is to a manufacturer of a novelinverter technology, which we plan to incorporate into the design to

While this capstone course model continues to develop with eachsuccessive year, assessment data shows that course and program objectives of graduatingstudents who can “plan, design, execute, and manage a complex open-ended civil engineeringproject” are being met [4]. In accomplishing this goal, students produce engineering designdocuments, construction drawings, cost estimates, construction schedules, and any othernecessary project specific documents. In addition, students communicate the results of theirproject via a technical report and a formal presentation

In this paper we explore a series ofinterventions in a range of engineering and computer science degrees at the University of NorthTexas. The University of North Texas College of Engineering supports admission of all studentsinto the degree of their choice. We explore the enrollment patterns from the pre-pandemic, post-pandemic, new HSI designation, a resulting NSF grant and planning for implementation of theTexas Senate Bill 17 in 2023.

At our school, civilengineering students take a senior seminar course that has a collection of topics to prepare themfor successful entry into and growth throughout their professional life. Among the topics in ourinitial offering of this seminar course was one seminar on the basics of financial literacy andmanagement, which proved to be very popular and highly rated as to its perceived usefulness bythe students. As a result of student feedback, the seminar was expanded to two seminar periods.This led the author to ask the questions: (1) is there a need for financial literacy education
