initiative. This work aims to understand thepotential benefits and challenges of the I-Corps and IBL integration. By examining the feedbackof students, instructors, and mentors, the study seeks to document the experience of allstakeholders in the process and to identify how this approach may enhance practical skills, fosterinnovation, and improve market readiness among engineering students. While the study presentspreliminary results at this stage, it aims to establish a foundational understanding of the potentialimplications of using the I-Corps NSF program in an engineering IBL classroom. The insightsgathered from this study can inform future curriculum development, teaching methods, and theoverall approach to engineering education, focusing on
manufacturing design process. On the contrary, cost is not an issue for academicinstitutions since many software companies have educational programs offering drastic pricereductions.This study presents a general manufacturing process course utilizing manufacturing processsimulation tools as instructional aids. The objective of the course is to accomplish intelligent useof the software tools in learning design of parts, processes or tooling. Basics of numerical analysismethods, upon which the software are based, are also taught in the proposed course. With theassistance of these tools, students can visualize and better study the manufacturing processes.Issues such as cycle time, load and power requirements, material flow, solidification

This will help to ensure that there will be enoughengineers, technologists and technicians to meet the future needs within the composites field.Many opportunities and paths exist at all levels to improve the entire composites education andtraining of these future graduates. I have identified several curriculum plans that might help toachieve those goals of updating and developing more widespread approaches to moderncomposites education and training. It is hoped that through these plans, the field of compositestechnology will continue to expand and improve the ways and means by which we live our dailylives.George D. GrayGeorge D.

The results suggested that HEI should more aggressively seek ways to better engagefaculty with cooperative education to maximize the co-op student‟s learning experience.Curriculum-Co-op relationshipsAs a co-operative education faculty coordinator, I have come to understand that learning can beachieved in many ways. While there are definitely opportunities to learn in the classroom,learning comes, for many students, from hands-on experiences such as co-op. The co-opexperience can be extrapolated to the mechanical engineering curriculum to benefit all studentsin the program. This will ensure faculty engagement because faculty are passionate

. Therefore, if theseare the components of the curriculum then our view of curriculum change is about how much ofeach of these components should be included in an undergraduate engineering program.The early origins of engineering education in the United States grew out of the apprenticeshiproots of the profession1. Up to the time of World War I, engineering education included morepractical training than theory and mathematical analysis. Engineering education in the U.S.started to change after World War I as an influx of European professors brought along their morescientific and mathematical tradition involved with research.Following World War II, undergraduate engineering programs became more and moreanalytical.

Potential Issues with Industry-Sponsored Projects at the First-Year Level: A Reviewand Preliminary EvidenceThe current trend for first year engineering education is the adoption of industry-sponsored,and/or service learning projects. The practice of using industry-sponsored projects forsenior-level or capstone courses is being replicated at the first-year level, with the hope forthe same level of success. With service learning projects, students engage in experientialdesign learning during which they apply their knowledge for design to meet local communityneeds 28. Despite the trend of adopting industry- sponsored and/or service learning projectsto the curriculum, there is no comprehensive and conclusive evidence of their added benefitin comparison

The concept of conforming tospecification and standards originated in the manufacturing industry as a basis for measurementto describe the required characteristics of a product or service that would satisfy customerrequirements. Higher education institutions can measure quality in terms of academic standards.The term standard causes other challenges as it often conveys excellence or high standards [7].Academic standards can broadly be defined in terms of teaching, learning, research, course,curriculum, admission procedures, physical resources, academic advising, faculty involvement,etc. The above standards can be classified into three distinct areas: input as incoming students,output as student achievement or
