Based upon departmental needs analyses and published research onpossible ‘fits’ from successful STEM initiatives at other institutions, we designed PRIMES toblend two general strands that would support these anticipated outcomes: 1. Transform Teaching and Learning: Improved retention as a result of expanding our undergraduate teaching assistance (UTA) programs and institutionalizing a formal UTA training pedagogy. A working knowledge in best practices will enable them to be both effective and engaging in the laboratory and/or classroom. 2. Increase Faculty and Student Interactions: Improved retention as a

The technical adviser benefited from the experience as well because the project gives awindow of opportunity to showcase the universality of the technical concepts covered in theclassroom. And finally, the project benefited the sponsor by getting a needed piece of equipmentat an affordable price.In conclusion, this type of projects are a win-win-win situation that do lend themselves for manyother uses in academics. Students have the satisfaction of producing results in a morechallenging situation, even the faculty member proposing the project was not sure if the projectwill generate enough interest and students will bid on it.

& Business Development Professionals to Create Globally Competent Engineers via On- and Off-Campus ActivitiesAbstractEfforts to scale curricular and co-curricular experiences designed to foster globally competentengineers sit at an important crossroads. Education for global competency, along with thedevelopment of other “professional” or “soft” skills, is an important part of the formation of 21stcentury engineers. There is broad agreement that, “US engineers [of 2020] will face totallydifferent problems from the ones we face today” and “will have to be open to different religions,different ways of thinking, and different social values.”1 However, consensus does not existregarding how to cultivate globally

to develop global competencies has become apressing necessity for engineering programs given the highly global nature of engineering workthat requires the ability to work productively with other cultures. Study abroad programs, virtualglobal courses, and courses and modules focused on engineering for a global society, are allpedagogical approaches to improving engineering students’ global competencies. Although theseformal education approaches can be highly effective, they are not always accessible to a widepopulation of students and largely engage students for only a single and short portion ofstudents’ academic experiences.1 Increasingly, extracurricular activities, such as EWB, haveemerged as another an alternative that offer students an

In 2010 we were awarded a National ScienceFoundation Science Talent Expansion Program grant, specifically aimed at increasing STEMgraduates by improving first-time, full-time student retention. One of the elements of the projectwas the support of three, year-long, STEM-specific faculty learning communities (FLCs) (e.g.see Cox, 2001).4 Based on interest from numerous math faculty, coupled with Calculus Ileadership by one of the co-PIs on the grant, the latter two FLCs became exclusively

The project is now in its fifth semester and has reached a steady state wherethe reformed practices are normative within the subset of instructors who might be called upon toteach Calculus I. Gains from the project include a rise in the pass rate in Calculus I, greaterstudent engagement, greater instructor satisfaction, a general shift toward active learningpedagogies, and the emergence of a strong collaborative teaching community.Project leaders are seeking to expand these gains to other areas of the curriculum and to broadenthe community of instructors who are fully accepting of the reforms. Common concernsexpressed by faculty resistant to the overhaul include suspicion that pass rate gains might reflectgrade inflation or weakened

This poses challenges foreducational institutions which, beyond helping students become subject experts, need to takethe responsibility for preparing them to ‘deal with global communicative practices online, inall their complexity’[2].

One majorchange made to this section was the Course Schedule.

Among these includeEthical and Legal Issues, Wound Healing, Corrosion Basics, Failure Analysis and BiomedicalApplications of Materials as shown in Table 1. As a result of this, the laboratory activities didnot match up as well with what
