Civil Engineering is the newest engineering program at York College, havinggraduated its first cohort in August 2020. Our sophomore-level Introduction to EnvironmentalEngineering course is run as a three-credit lecture (three 50-minute sessions per week) with aone-credit lab (one 165-minute session per week). For a pre-pandemic semester, lab sectionshave been typically capped at 16 students; to accommodate the Spring 2021 cohort enrollment(33 students), lab sections were capped at 12 students to ensure a relatively even distribution ofstudents across the sections.

Goal - to incorporate into classes, methodologies that encourage learning and help retain a deep, long term conceptual understanding of the subject material.ObjectiveAs it currently stands, on one hand, the wish to provide a broad and well-rounded education forour students and to develop “the whole person” leaves little room in a typical aerospaceundergraduate core curriculum of most academic programs to provide a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary experience and educate “the whole engineer”. On the other hand, participation inUAS design/flight test competitions and going up against their peers from other institutionsprovides a great opportunity for students to express their creativity while applying the knowledgegained in the classroom
heat of acid-base neutralization reaction could beobserved and quantified, and a magnetic stirrer at the junction was added to improve mixing. Theseexperiments provide representative examples of instructive microscale phenomena for heat transfer,fluid mechanics, and process engineering courses in the engineering curriculum. The ability tovisualize thermal and flow effects complements analysis techniques. Further, these experimentshighlight important design issues in microscale systems.AcknowledgementsThis work was supported by the US National Science Foundation TUES Grant 1044708, NSF DUEAward 1245872; and by the US Department of Education under the joint DHSIP Program with theUniversity of Texas at El Paso, PR/Award No: P031S120131.

traditional lecture class? 3. Is there a differential impact of guided inquiry learning based on sex or ethnicity?The first question is obviously of importance for understanding whether the guided inquiryapproach is effective in a traditional sense. The second question is important from a retentionand motivational standpoint. Regardless of the actual improvement in understanding, studentswho believe that they understand the material are more likely to have feelings of confidence, bemotivated to work hard, and to ultimately remain in their engineering program. This last pointmay be especially important for underrepresented groups.The question of student understanding will be measured using the Materials Concept Inventory(MCI) developed by Krause et

Efforts are being made to understandthese ramifications but in the interim, the experiences with asbestos-type materials and therealization of the high reactivity associated with the high surface areas of nanomaterials implythat the safety concerns be handled with utmost urgency by the nanotechnology industry.Surprisingly, nanomaterials do not only occur from engineered endeavors; they can occurnaturally and anthropogenically.

All these factors suggest that there will be a strong market for an engineeringworkforce versed in both combustion and fuel cell applications.The recent progress in fuel cell technology combined with the growing market share dictates theneed of preparing more engineers fluent in fuel cells.

educational value to be reused in future classes. “Some people talk in their sleep. Lecturers talk while other people sleep.” – Albert Camus Page 13.829.7 7Faculty ObservationsMost students who have reached a college engineering program are certainly able to learnby visual and verbal means. Based upon our audience, it is therefore not clear if physicalactivity is an effective means of teaching concepts. Even assuming that the educationalprocess has filtered out natural kinesthetic learners
flightperformance can be predictably related to the full-scale aircraft’s performance. Although manycompanies have performed scaled flight-testing of Remotely Piloted Vehicles (RPV’s),published non-proprietary information about low-cost, scaled flight-testing is essentially non-existent. The focus of the project at hand, therefore, is to compare the in-flight performancecharacteristics of a 1/3-scale flying "prototype" of a Cessna 172P to the well-documented in-flight performance characteristics of a full-scale Cessna 172P. Much flight testing has beendone by the Aerospace Engineering department at ERAU, using the 172P, such that using thisaircraft as the model for determining the validity of the scaling hypotheses is consideredtechnically sound.
