Amount of Academic DishonestyFour questions were used to understand the amount of homework copying, lab report copying,homework solution abuse, cheating on quizzes / exams, and overall student impression on thelevel of cheating in classes. In order to understand which students self-report behavior contraryto the academic integrity regulations stipulated in the undergraduate catalog, the studentresponses for each question were analyzed relative to major, gender, class, age, GPA, TOEFLscore, Intensive English Program (IEP) attendance, course load, and whether the student lives

In a report on the progress of bioengineering as anindependent field of study, Johnson2 explicitly states, “We have yet to develop texts and otherteaching materials in biological engineering.” Moreover, because of the scale, complexity, andinterdisciplinary nature of the study of most bioengineering phenomena, the development andimplementation of hands-on experiments can be both costly and challenging at the earlyundergraduate level.Though the growth of the internet has led to a general increase in web-based tools, those

They reported that entrepreneurship in engineering curricula comes in upper levelentrepreneurship engineering courses, certificate programs or minors in entrepreneurship, orintegrative programs, and that most of these models were not solely offered in engineeringschools. Most entrepreneurship “courses are targeted at business students”8.Compared to the few entrepreneurship education and training programs within engineeringschools for engineering students and others, fewer of these courses can be found in computingschools or specifically targeted to computing students, thereby

It isan automatic procedure in that it does not require any user control parameters for its applicationto an image.Because of the importance of histogram matching and its wide application potential, thissubtopic is included in almost all image-processing courses and textbooks1-9. It is however oneof the most difficult image processing techniques to fully understand and implement especiallyfor those encountering it for the first time (except, may be, when using a “canned function” toperform its operation). The reason for this difficulty is because, though an image in this regardhas nothing to do with probabilities and probability distributions as such in general, theformulation and

Our 2015 study in engineering literacy revealed that student perceptions of their ownknowledge, skills, and perceptions of the impact of engineers and ways of thinking and acting,were relatively stable across dimensions of gender, ethnicity, degree progress, and curricularfocus.4 The survey used for the study resulted in several conclusions, which acknowledged littleto no meaningful differences across these dimensions. The most significant conclusion drawn,though, was this absence of meaningful difference between students in engineering courses ofstudy and students in non-engineering programs.

Hands-on: The new lab should promote control-systems education with experimentation, requiring identification and control of physical device(s). The laboratory course should be designed to complement and synchronize with the lecture course in order to best reinforce concepts learned in class with hands-on experience. 2.
