Typically, this course is taken during the third year, however some students put it offuntil senior year due to co-ops or course scheduling problems, and others may take it as early assophomore year if they entered with many AP credits. The course is presented in 7 modules:Measurement Systems, Design of Experiments, Signals and Sensor Response, Data Analysis andUncertainty, Thermal Measurements, Fluid Measurements, Mechanical Measurements, andPresenting Your Research.

theory of interpretation based on thecomparison of multiple cases has the characteristics of narrative and openness, which hasimplications for higher education research.As an important method in the field of social sciences, the Small-N case studies method doesnot focus on isolated cases. Instead, multiple cases are selected for in-depth analysis. Throughrepeated comparison of multiple cases, the causal mechanism of social phenomena isrevealed to construct an interpretive theory. The multi-case comparison method has greatimplications for higher education research in terms of theoretical construction, research topics,and research methods.

-represented minority students, recruited into engineeringpathways. To nurture a broader interest in engineering, there have been several efforts made tocreate K-12 programs directed toward all students, often with emphasis on females andminorities. In addition, programs have been designed to help teachers incorporate engineeringinto their classrooms12. School counselors, on the other hand, have been a neglected resourcethat needs attention and support to be able to encourage and advise all students about theengineering profession2,12. After all, when it is time to guide students toward a future career andeducation pathway, it is school counselors and parents who encourage (and discourage) studentsto attend (or not attend) college and take (or not

Technology (1998). The need to useinformation technologies to creatively improve undergraduate education has been highlighted bythe Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching (Fortenberry, 2000). How has the education establishment reacted to the need to better educate engineeringstudents for the information age? The National Science Board reports that the number of scienceand engineering students is dwindling and the shortage of technically skilled workers is rapidlybecoming critical (National Science Board, 2000). U.S. universities lose 40 percent of thefreshmen admitted to engineering programs by the end of their sophomore year and employerschide schools for not providing the skills needed (Prados and Proctor, 2000).

A tragedy such as that of Challenger was feltthroughout the nation due to its public nature, but similar instances of poor risk communicationare most likely present in many organizations, especially those outside the public spotlight. Thiscase study was developed and implemented with undergraduate engineering and managementstudents to understand whether such occurrences are in part a result from shortcomings incollege-level curricula in both management and engineering programs. The engineering studentswere seniors, while the management students were comprised of sophomores and juniors. It

While Hyperedge Coarsening can reduce asignificant amount of hyperedge weight to produce coarser graphs, especially compared to EdgeCoarsening, it ultimately leaves a lot of unclustered nodes. The Modified Hyperedge Coarseningis an improved version of the Hyperedge Coarsening, where it aims to address this issue withHyperedge Coarsening.

Therefore, students during COVID were deprived of the in-person makerspace experiencewhich has been shown to improve confidence in engineering design by demonstrating therealities of prototyping and manufacturing [14]. Remote students also reported feeling a lack of“relatedness”, a sense of belonging and value within a team.
