The results of the TSU student teams efforts were right-on,and enabled the Saturn and EDS team to evaluate several potential solutions to our businessproblem. The CSS experience brought a fresh set of creative ideas to help us solve our businessproblem. We have benefited from our experience with our TSU education partner.”5. ConclusionThis paper describes an elegant way of partnering academic institutions with industries todevelop problem-based projects that improve students’ technical and soft skills for immediateemployment. The DoCS at TSU has successfully completed three (3) such projects and it plansto expand this initiative in future. We plan to expose

A survey was used in this phase. 2. Brainstorm to determine alternatives to address the issues with the initial goals in mind. 3. Evaluate concepts and implement in parametric CAD the top ideas in order to have better visualization and ability to make modification for improvement. 4. Fully develop the selected alternative. All components were modeled using Pro/E (most common software in shops in the area). Models of parts and assemblies, STL files for rapid prototyping, and production drawings for manufacturing were generated

By the end of the summer the students were able tocomplete a rudimentary Python-based simulator.This project was attractive for two reasons. First, developing the code for a simulator opens thedoor to a range of interesting research, from adding one’s own custom noise models, toinvestigating ways to accelerate the simulator or add the ability to handle more qubits, which areall viable research problems in their own right [16], [17]. Second, the development of thesimulator forms a driving motivator for learning QC and thus provides a basis for ourintroductory class on QC. 3.

The following work-in-progress study is a first attemptto understand the attributes of the research mindset among engineering doctoral researchers.Interviews were conducted with seven early career engineering researchers. Initial findingssuggest that research mindset is comprised of six attributes: (1) open-mindedness, (2) believingin oneself and the research, (3) persistence, (4) honesty, (5) being critical, and (6) a writingmindset. The findings from this study provide a foundation for further explorations of researchmindset.IntroductionA mindset is a psychological framework that shapes an individual's
