, trained faculty raters use the analytical EPS Rubric to measure theextent to which student performance demonstrate the six learning outcomes associated with theABET professional skills in response to a given task. What has just been described is the“standard” version of the EPSA; the method and rubric are flexible, allowing for multiple Page 21.2.4implementation variations ranging from on-line group discussions to individual multi-weekprojects. Appendix A shows a sample performance task. Appendix B shows the EPS Rubric.Research goal and questionsThe primary goal of this research project is to establish the validity and reliability of

world class faculty trained as postdoctoral research associates and industry research and development-experienced hires, primarily from leading North American and EU universities, government labs and industrial research and development centers. Maintaining their competitiveness on global scale requires optimization of substantial start-up investment;b. The desire (and a reasonable standard in the era of globalization) of the KUSTAR faculty and leadership is to enable and provide access of our students and faculty to world class user research facilities (such as nanofabrication foundries, US national laboratories, materials characterization facilities and similar) through exchange and internship programs, and such globally mobile

they wouldn’thave considered on their own. Online tools create a short-term collective memory where ideascan be rapidly improved by many minds.” Industry has top level program goals that may requiremultinational team work and the synergistic support structure of extremely large teams where noone person understands all the systems of systems in detail.There is a growing trend of global, multi-company collaboration within the aerospacecommunity. With the growing maturity of information technology and ever-increasingcomplexity of modern engineering and education, many parent companies form partnershipswith specialty teams in order to facilitate rapid development across all subsystems of a project.For example, the Boeing Company purchases roughly
