The third course will be group projects with participating industries. Group projects willtarget specific industries, identify a sensor need, develop a prototype and perform field-tests.Each project is a team effort involving multiple students working in close collaboration with a Page 5.52.6faculty adviser and an industry co-adviser. Teams will be selected to ensure

This observation is based upon several years of positive studentevaluations and feedback very supportive of the team building experience gained whilefunctioning as a member of a SLT.Team based production models are rapidly gaining popularity in the corporate world and are thekey to improving performance in all kinds of organizations.12 The synergistic results associatedwith functioning as an empowered team to produce a quality product are abundantly availablefrom numerous sources. Educating students to this reality needs to be done concurrently whilethey are acquiring university level

Session 1526 A REGIONAL CENTER FOR MANUFARCTUING EDUCATION IN NANOFABRICATION Paul M. Hallacher, Douglas E. Fenwick, and Stephen J. Fonash The Penn State Nanofabrication Facility On July 9, 2001, the National Science Foundation designated the PennsylvaniaNanofabrication Manufacturing Technology (NMT) Partnership as a Center forManufacturing Education in Nanofabrication. This designation represents a majormilestone in the continuing development of the Pennsylvania NMT Partnership, a uniqueeducation collaborative involving The Pennsylvania State University, Pennsylvania’s 14community
and Construction (EPC) companies,as well as chemical and petrochemical industries. SPED was founded in 1980 to promotethe piping profession and to meet the education and training needs of piping engineersand designers. Because of the uniqueness of the piping profession and its specialeducational needs, SPED and the piping program at UH-D share many commonobjectives. As a result, there is tremendous synergy in this partnership. Both SPED andUH-D have exploited this synergy and used it to their mutual benefit. This has resultedin a win-win situation for both SPED and UH-D. This paper describes the origin andgrowth of this partnership. The future potential of this partnership is also explored.Finally, the importance of such partnerships in the

The micro-credential is targeted towards engineering students asearly as their first year of post-secondary study. The draft micro-credential notably includedseveral historical case studies – notably, the Boeing 737 Max crash, the Space Shuttle Challengerexplosion, Apple intellectual property misappropriation, the Volkswagen diesel emissionsscandal, and the Ford Explorer and Firestone tire tread separation incident – with additionalfurther modern cases inspired by recent engineering industry events. In this work, our qualitativeimpressions on the micro-credential development process originated via memo-writing (Saldana,2012), were further

Meisen6 mentions that the global trends in engineering education in the 90s were agreater emphasis on experiential programs supported by industry work experience, decliningemphasis on laboratory instruction, internationalization of engineering
management and industrial engineeringdepartments. Providing real world opportunities that explore collaboration across organizationalcultures, time zones, and practice gives students a tremendous competitive advantage as theyenter the workforce and fosters experience-based learning. This paper details the creation of anintegrated supply chain curriculum between engineering management and industrial engineeringdepartments at four universities and examines the value-added skills achieved through theaddition of a global, virtual student project environment. This partnership includes twouniversities in the U.S., one in Puerto Rico, and one in Spain. Assessment is addressed throughboth internal and external assessment mechanisms. These include the use of

Research Component inFigure 1. Such research activities were highly interdisciplinary based on NASA’s interests. Theactivities demand tight collaborations among researchers in the participating institutions andNASA centers. Without the collaborations, the research topics would have been isolated fromeach other.All of the SERENADES graduates have been either hired by the CSULA SPACE Laboratory,the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, local aerospace industry, or admitted to the graduateschools for master, and/or Ph.D. studies at several prestige institutions. As a result, there havebeen significant interaction and dissemination among these researchers as well as synergy amongthe areas of research developed for the MUCERPI program.2. Organization and

responding poorly to the deductive, or professor centeredclassroom. Unfortunately, collaborative work or team assignments are frequently completed bystudents working independently during the project and combining work near the due date. Thisnegates the intention of cross team communication and the group approach to solving problems.Regrettably, this model of team assignments where students work independently without theintended cross team communication is prevalent on many campuses nationwide. In an effort toeffectively engage the new construction management student and provide a “real life”experience, the authors developed the Multicourse Undergraduate Learning Community(MULC).The Multicourse Undergraduate Learning Communities (MULC) project is an

shown that 66% ofstudents tend to skip buying or renting course materials altogether in college, with 63% skippingtextbook purchasing specifically because of the high cost of textbooks [5].To combat the high cost of instructional materials, open educational resources (OER) haverecently entered the textbook market. OERs are any type of educational materials that are in thepublic domain or introduced with an open publishing license [6]. In addition to textbooks, OERsinclude resources such as course assignments, tests, lecture notes, syllabi, videos, reviewmaterials, and so on.
