This paper will describe the use of a semester-long project which serves the purpose ofincreasing depth of knowledge in a specialized topic, contextualization within a broader field, aswell as a new skill-set. The specialized topic is an Analytical Microdevice Technology electivecourse, which is structured to reinforce concepts from transport, unit operations, and plant

First, an assessment was initiatedidentifying available course training offerings and their curriculum and delivery characteristics.Second, an investigation into training needs was conducted using a mixed-method approachconsisting of personal interviews and an online survey. This study concluded that while trainingis a highly personal decision and influenced by many different factors, those related to cost,location, and topic area ultimately drive an individual or agency to pursue such opportunities.These findings can inform both practitioners and researchers to strategically determine howfuture training opportunities should be developed and shaped to meet the growing demands oftomorrow’s transportation

Development and Use of a Client Interaction Rubric for Formative AssessmentIntroductionThere is a growing movement within the engineering education community towardsincorporating real-world design experiences into the curriculum, where teams of students workwith or for a client to solve a problem. In these circumstances, clients are generally aware thatthey are working with students instead of professionals, and so are more willing to provideformative feedback to critique student efforts. One way of easily providing such feedback isthrough the use of rubrics; unfortunately, a literature search failed to turn up any rubrics designedspecifically for student-client interactions within engineering. Accordingly, the development

historical case study inclusion, it is anticipated that students will demonstrate anability to understand the processes of invention and design, apply ethics in engineering, anddemonstrate an understanding of the engineer’s role in and their value to society. Students willalso demonstrate a greater depth of knowledge by developing intuition about expected behaviorof engineered systems and better visualizing the interaction of components of engineeredsystems. Finally, students should experience a change in attitudes about quality engineering as aresult of studying the historical development of engineered systems.It is possible an engineering history course of this nature, offered early in the curriculum, canhelp with retention and success of women
