principles and skills to establish workforce competencies inmanufacturing. To date, PRIME has served the region in the following ways:· Closed the competency gaps cited by regional industry through new and upgraded curricula and facilities at all partner institutions. These gaps include Business Knowledge Skills, Communication Skills, Manufacturing Processes, International Perspective, Manufacturing Process Controls, Manufacturing Systems and Principles, Quality, Problem -solving, Project Management, Teamwork, Materials, and Engineering Fundamentals;· Impacted students seeking pre-employment education or a skills upgrade for career advancement through a combination of traditional (full-time), non-traditional (part-time), and
approaches in STEM education. Dr. ElZomor has been integrating innovative and novel educational paradigms in STEM education to support student engagement, retention, and diversity.Mr. Piyush Pradhananga, Florida International University Piyush Pradhananga is a Ph.D. student in Civil and Environmental Engineering at Florida International University (FIU).

activities as more than extraneous work, but also because it is an essential aspect of thelearning process under liberative pedagogies.The engineering education community has not deeply engaged questions of canon, with theresult that the curriculum is often disconnected from what students really care about. Forexample, on the first day of class, students expressed interest in topics such as alternative energy,global climate change, and technological investment for future energy concerns. However, corecourse concepts remain grounded in fossil-fuel-based steam power and internal combustionengines. Some texts have made an effort to connect with student concerns, but because the canonis unquestioned, these are usually presented as add-ons. For students
