While service, leadership, and study abroad are notrequirements of the honors program, many of our students gain this experience through specialtopics honors courses3 and by taking advantage of our exchange programs.As mentioned previously, all honors students at the University of Cincinnati must complete 36credit hours at the honors level in order to graduate with honors. However, there is a great dealof flexibility in how these hours are earned. Engineering Technology students at the College ofApplied Science receive a practical, hands-on education. These students earn most of their hoursthrough honors contracts which require
Through 2013Development and Pursuit of Educational Pathways. Students come from many STEM majorsand participate in research projects that are sometimes very complex and sophisticated. As aresult of their participation in the project, many students are better able to articulate their long-term educational goals, sometimes extending and developing those plans as a directly result oftheir involvement in research. For some students, their goals stretch beyond the bachelor’s Page 26.1576.15degree, and they develop an interest in continuing their studies at the graduate level.

Engineering education plays a crucial role in shaping the next generation of engineersand scientists (Agrawal & Harrington-Hurd, 2016; Brothy et al., 2008). Given its importance,research studies have sought practical ways to improve engineering education practices acrossmultiple dimensions (Crawley et al., 2007; Litzinger et al., 2011; Pizarro, 2018). Among theseefforts, there has been a long-lasting and ongoing focus on project- and team-based learning inSTEM and engineering education research (Felder & Brent, 2016; Kolar & Sabatini, 1996;Wankat & Oreovicz, 2014). Researchers found that project- and team-based learning practiceslead to favorable learning outcomes and behaviors, as well as effective cognitive and non-cognitive

In this study, the researchers asked the engineers to“create a picture or representation of what you think the process of design is.” They also askedthe practicing engineers to rate the six most and least important skills from a list of 23 skills.Finally, they asked the

Hammurabi, Sun Tzu, Confucius,Chanakya Kautilya, Moses, Plato, Aristotle, Saint Augustine, Gutenberg, Francis Bacon,Copernicus, Galileo and Isaac Newton are widely recognized and studied for their abilities tolead and advance civilization.The word ‘leader’ first appeared in the English language around 1300. Prior to that words likecommander, chief, general, emperor and king were commonly used. As concepts of inheritedroles, nobility and royal families were questioned, the word ‘leadership’ began to surface(around the middle 1700s in parallel with the rise of democracy). The word ‘leader’ was widelyused to describe political influence and control within the British parliament. Thus, even thoughthe study of leaders is old, scholarly research related

In Table 2 we have selected statistical data on academic performance by gender (the GPA's bynumber of years taken to graduate, the percentage of graduates in four and five years, and the percentageof drop outs). As we can see, there are no significant gender differences in GPA's in the cohortsconsidered. In all cohorts and for both male and female, the average GPA is over 3 points for thosestudents graduating in 4 years. Figures for students graduating in 5 years are less representative sincetheir number is small. A lack of differential patterns by gender can be observed as well in the percentageof

Learning has traditionally been a topic of research and instruction in computer science and computer engineering programs. Yet, due to its wide applicability in a variety of fields, its research use has expanded in other disciplines, such as electrical engineering, industrial engineering, civil engineering, and mechanical engineering. Currently, many undergraduate and first-year graduate students in the aforementioned fields do not have exposure to recent research trends in Machine Learning. This paper reports on a project in progress, funded by the National Science Foundation under the program Combined Research and Curriculum Development (CRCD), whose goal is to remedy this shortcoming. The project involves the development of a
