Further, students identify an initial big,complex, and unscripted problem/issue within the organization that requires action research tosolve or make decisions on. Finally, students will reflect on the learning that took place as aresult of the action research project conducted at the organization where they work/intern.A sample of the action research assignment is below:Introduction of the TopicThe form of the introduction will vary with the nature of the proposed project.

Thus, capstone was easily manageable and resulted in a highquality experience for the students.Today, several initiatives at the College and Department levels have changed the demographicsof the program. First, the College embarked on what is now known as the 25x25 initiative togrow the enrollment of the College to twenty-five thousand engineering students by 2025. Thishas resulted in a rapid increase in enrollment over the past five years. A program whichoriginally had an approximate enrollment of 120 students has now grown to over 300 students.This has resulted in entry-level, required program courses seeing an increase in

Addressing the talent gap,and lack of Cyber security professionals, there has been a leap towards research in how toeducate the future cybersecurity work force.

The designed system provides the operator with a feedback on the filters efficiency, usingpressure difference across the filter, and recommends maintenance when the pressure dropincreases beyond 70% of the initial pressure drop when a new filter is installed. If the filter is notreplaced when system maintenance is alerted and the pressure drop keeps increasing, the systemwill shut off the pump if it crosses 85% pressure drop increase limit.

As the prime directive of ethics, all professionals should refrain from actions thatresult in harm of any type: physical, psychological, financial, legal. Initially associated withmedicine and erroneously ascribed to the Hippocratic Oath, primum non nocere came intowidespread usage in the early 20th century18 and has served as a guide for professional practicein any area related to the public good. Engineering codes capture this concept in FundamentalCanon #1, and public safety is at the forefront of a designer’s mind, especially those workingwith structures and consumer products.It is important to note
