I believe itwould be difficult to learn 100 students’ names in a semester, but I have a professor thissemester for manufacturing processes and she knows everyone in the two sections. She made it apoint to tell the class the first day to come and meet her because she wants to know everyone”.As referred to in the prior comment, some students felt like the professors should be considerateof the number of courses and time requirement for all of the classes. In this vein, one studentsuggested that the curriculum needed to be modified or evaluated to confirm that all courses arerelevant, not abstract or repetitive. The professor should also be organized

always have an impact on student retention or graduation rates. This finding isconsistent with the understanding that curriculum and instruction have strong impacts on retention.Students who build connections between theoretical academic aspects of the curriculum andprofessional engineering practice are more likely to be retained in engineering. Likewise, those whobuild connections with other students develop a sense of belonging and are less likely to changemajors.The American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) promotes practices and strategies forretaining students in engineering7. Based on best-practices submitted by College Deans from manyuniversities, a common theme was found: creating a “community” is important for student retention

It alsooffers a platform to remind students of the expectations on a routine basis. I now address allissues related to interpersonal interactions in the academic environment as professionalism skills.From emails to eating in class, all behaviors can now be commended as professional, or evenvery professional, or appropriately criticized as not professional, or not acceptable in aprofessional environment. In comments in student evaluations many students accept thatemployers seek professionalism skills in new employees, and that they are benefitted bypracticing those skills daily
Axis Wind Turbine.Nirjhar Das Sharma, Purdue University Calumet My name is Nirjhar Das Sharma. I was born on November 20, 1990 in Chittagong, Bangladesh. I pursued my passion for engineering from my early childhood while I was going through High school education. I completed a four year B.Sc. course in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (2008-2013) from Chittagong University of Engineering & Technology, Bangladesh. The last two years of the Bachelor study introduced me to some real-life learning along with a lot of important experiences. I personally believe that the In- dustrial training at TICI (Training Institute for Chemical Industries), Narshingdi was the most valuable tour where I experienced about the
careers infor-profit or nonprofit organizations, or to further their education in graduate school.The educational objectives of the General Engineering program are to produce graduates who,during the first few years of professional practice will: Be employed by industry or government in the fields, such as, design, research and development, experimentation and testing, manufacturing, and technical sales. Assume an increasing level of responsibility and leadership within their respective organizations. Communicate effectively and work collaboratively in multidisciplinary and multicultural work environments. Recognize and understand global, environmental, social, and ethical contexts of their work
