Alongside the interviewresults, this paper will also present details of ISST and its offerings for students. This paper couldbe useful to colleges looking for manners in which they can fully support international students,specifically at the discipline-specific level.1.

Non-technical education is perceived as less useful; necessaryonly for management, rather than research, entrepreneurship, and traditional pathways [11].Additionally, there is an apparent lack of literature regarding the effectiveness of these courses.Drawing from ABET intended outcomes, this study aims to shed more light on the impact ofengineering management and leadership courses for undergraduate students and their impact onstudents’ senior design and other significant university projects.Methods This study employs qualitative methodology, using focus groups, to explore the impact ofthe

growing inpopularity, the take-home exam, relaxes the restrictions of the in-person exam by allowingstudents to use notes and other resources, and by extending the exam timetime to several hoursor even days. Because of this, take-home exams can be less stressful for students, however, theseexams can also create more opportunities for academic misconduct, particularly throughprohibited collaboration.This paper uses a hybrid-exam consisting of a take-home portion of the exam followed by an in-person portion. The take-home portion is opened-book where students are allowed to consulttheir course notes, however, students are not allowed to collaborate or communicate withanyone. The in-person portion contains questions similar to the take-home portion

The overall goal of the program is togenerate or sustain adolescents’ interest in engineering and technology and to enhance self-confidence and motivation toward education. The portion of the program developed by theCenter for Advanced Materials and Smart Structures (CAMSS) is shaped by a philosophicalapproach that emphasizes the direct benefit of learning by active methods and by

This is notable since WV is the 10thsmallest US state and 12th least populated state (home to approximately 1.8 million residents).The power systems industry in West Virginia and its history are complex and interrelated withelectrification, mining, education, its economy, and industrial demands both within and outsidethe state. Notably, West Virginia has abundant natural resources, particularly its extensive coaldeposits nestled in the rugged Appalachian Mountains, which have long established WestVirginia as a cornerstone of coal-based industry [7].Coal has played a significant role in West

In addition, growing demands for energy, risingfuel prices, limited fuel supply and dire environmental consequences command more efficientand cleaner combustion technologies. Engineers well versed in the topic will be needed toaddress this societal need. However, relatively few programs offer a Combustion course at theundergraduate level; even fewer integrate a laboratory into the course.The School of Engineering at Grand valley State University emphasizes a practical, hands-onapproach to education and integrates a laboratory practicum into a large number of its courses.
