An Undergraduate Research Experience in Engineering TechnologyAbstractTo initiate the development of an autonomous vehicle to participate in the Intelligent GroundVehicle Competition, a multidisciplinary undergraduate research course was established duringthe summer of 2005 within the Engineering Technology Department. This was the first time anundergraduate research component has been offered to students within the EngineeringTechnology Department at the University of Dayton. The course was conducted using anindependent study format with several team meetings to monitor individual student progress andto provide collaborative feedback to the students.

For African Americans, the rate is~3%, for Hispanics, the rate is ~5%, and for AI/ANs, the rate is ~1.5%. These numbers have asignificant impact on the ability of our nation‟s research force to address the complex issues ofhealth disparities24.In the rapidly growing field of genomics, the situation is even more dire. For example, in 2006,of the 2,154 graduate students in the US studying genetics, only 11 were Native American(2 were GenOM Fellows at our university and have since earned
