, Modeling, Virtual Environments and Simulation. This isassociated with a cluster of Standard Occupational Classification System (SOC) codes,Computer and Information Research Scientists, Computer Programmers, Software Developers,Applications, and Multimedia Artists and Animators. When reviewing employment information,it is important to distinguish between positions that develop MSV tools and positions that useMSV tools. The information used to support the degree was more focused on those who use thetools in an engineering and technology context; the SOC codes associated with the eventual CIPcode are also essential.According to Indiana Career Connect, at the time degree approval was sought, more than 500jobs listed were for some type of engineering

, graduate students, and faculty from across campusThe goal of these professional development activities was to engage participants in the greaterUniversity community and give them the opportunity to experience common elements of life as agraduate student.Research SeminarsThe five research seminars covered a wide range of topics in Engineering research. Studentswere introduced to the responsible conduct of research (RCR) and encouraged to completeadditional training in RCR topics applicable to their own projects. The University providedaccess to a series of online training modules covering various topics, such as working withhuman or animal subjects, and students were expected to discuss RCR with their faculty mentor.Seminars in computational

bacterial biofilms, a new research area thatintersects a number of disciplines. Bacterial biofilms are multicellular structures responsible forthe contamination and failure of many engineered systems and also play a central role ininfectious diseases for humans, animals, and plants. Advancing the understanding of bacterialbiofilms in engineered and biological contexts benefits from knowledge of the physical forcesand fluid dynamics of the growth environment as well as the genetic pathways that lead to theproduction of biofilm matrix materials. Neither a traditional engineering view of the physicsinvolved nor a life science view of the cell biology involved is sufficient for developing newstrategies for mitigation and remediation of fouling by

computerscreen requires a great deal of practice to prevent unwanted applications from obscuring the viewof the computer screen. A review of Adobe Connect Pro stated, “Unshared windows can obstructthe view of all participants, making the presentation feature a challenge to manage.”12Adobe Connect Pro also contains a virtual whiteboard feature. The whiteboard is the electronicequivalent of color markers on an overhead transparency or a white marker board. Thewhiteboard feature helps to simulate the traditional classroom online. PC Magazine defines thewhiteboard structure as “a system that allows network participants to simultaneously view one or more users drawing on an on-screen blackboard or running an application. This is not the
