case studies are presented fromthe student perspective, focusing on the educational and professional benefits to students whohave worked on these projects. Keywords: Industrial Projects, Undergraduate Research, Pharmaceutical Industry1. Introduction Undergraduate engineering and technology students benefit from “real-world” experienceswhich are usually obtained through internship and co-op experiences. Through these workexperiences, students have the opportunity to apply their technical skills to industrially-relevantproblems, gain exposure to company culture, and build a foundation which helps providemotivation for future learning in an academic environment. While these “real-world”experiences are highly valuable to students, they are

We are interested in the construct of smartness, which is a powerful,yet implicit, driver of students’ experience in engineering education. Smartness in engineeringculture can be linked to both the broad narratives and norms that overarch engineering at asocietal level (e.g., engineers are smart) as well as the more specific, individual beliefs thatindividual

Educating students tothrive in their careers with the technological, societal, cultural and environmental complexitiesthey will face requires new approaches. Modern discussions in engineering education consideradding required time to graduation to add time into the packed curriculum to address theseissues. Extended time to graduation is fraught with problems in today’s reality of the high costof education and political pressures especially with state supported institutions.
