Hanbidge et al.

In the same vein as Stevens’ et al., rather thanfocusing on quantity measures about students’ persistence, we have focused on “qualities ofexperiences that students have that stay, or leave, and the kinds of engineers they become (p.365),” thus illustrating how design experiences outside of formal curriculum drive students’interest in engineering and allow students to discover a unique and personal trajectory tobecoming an engineer.1ConclusionInformal learning environments, such as co-curricular design teams, are an understudied butimportant aspect of students’ educational

As the director of his research group at Purdue, he received funding for the development of contamination resistant valves for the throttle control of fighter jet engines. The resulting design of this project generated a modified poppet valve that improved its response time from 40ms to 10ms.
