Of course, emphasizing to the students that this is aprofessional development opportunity for them should be done in order to prime the students tobe ready to critically consider the contents of what they are to about to hear.A few days prior to a technical conference where students are presenting their work, it isbeneficial to have the students practice their presentation in front of the research group.

Accordingto the American Foundrymen’s Society (AFS), close to 90% of the annual castings produced (1)nationwide are sand castings . Such popularity, due in part to the high level of applicability thatsand casting offers, has resulted in many technical developments towards a more efficientprocess.

Each group managed a website wherethey documented their progress and used post-its to track action items.The biomusic project, however, was wicked in another way.

Industry saw benefits from theseparate curriculums and areas of specialization as engineers studied theory and conceptualizeddesign, while engineering technologists held the technical skills to apply theory to practice [3].Four-year baccalaureate engineering technology programs developed from two-year programs inthe 1960s, as
