For example, after being asked if the NFLCcontributes to his personal and/or professional life, Jerry, an associate professor of practiceresponded, “Yeah. It also gave me confidence in all of our various deans and administratorsaround here.” He continued to explain this confidence came through the organizer’s empathy“towards the new faculty.

The need for reform must extend into graduate education tounleash the innovative potential of the nation’s engineers throughout their productive years ofcreative engineering practice in industry. The education of an engineer is truly a process oflifelong learning, growth and professional development that continues beyond the rudimentarylevel of entry level preparation.If the United States is to retain preeminence in creating new technologies, new models forprofessionally oriented graduate education must be implemented that better support theprofessional development needs of the U.S. engineering workforce in industry

efficient transmission of knowledge from (lecturing)teacher to (passive) student, will no longer serve. Reform of engineering education, if it is tomeet the challenge of today’s professional needs, must open up the curriculum to enable activelearning. One way to achieve this is through the infusion of design and open-ended experiencesthroughout the curriculum.” Dissection and reverse engineering both respond to this call byinvolving the disassembly, analysis and assembly of an artifact or process, adding ‘hands-on’active learning components to the curriculum.Incorporation of DAA activities into the engineering curriculum has been used to achieve severaldisparate goals.

We used these activities to deeply, explore specific aspects of our experiences that werenot adequately captured through the reflections and meetings. These activities included: our perceptionsof impact and our impact specifically, social capital, and the role of current events on our practice andexperiences. We identified the areas that needed further exploration through a review of Campbell andO’Meara’s faculty agency framework [4].

This poses a problem insofar as there is a richness in theentrepreneurial mindset and cognitive process (Haynie, Shepherd, Mosakowsky & Earley, 2010)that extends beyond the process of creating companies. Moreover, if the entrepreneurial mindsetprovides deeply adaptive cognitive strategies, there is an argument to be made about the value ofhaving an entrepreneurial mindset in any organizational

through concrete as well as the measurement of the permeability coefficient of air inconcrete, but there exists little experimental data on the permeability coefficient of concrete for verylow pressure differences. The majority of studies have documented permeability coefficients atdifferential pressures beyond the scope of advective radon entry problems in residential construction(i.e., ∆p ~ 5 - 10 Pa). Permeability measurements under specified high-pressure differenceconditions have been found not to scale linearly to the small pressure differences of interest. Thisnonlinearity for large pressure differences normally leads to an underestimate of the flow velocityat low pressure difference conditions and hence, a large variance in the
