For example, first-generation and rural college studentsoften enter college with less financial capital than their peers and are therefore more likely towork while in school [8]; [38].

Third, student enrollment is composed of bothtechnical and non-technical students historically drawing students majoring in engineering,political science, business, general science, and education. Fourth, the course is team-taught byan engineering professor and a political scientist.

These are fundamental concepts at the core of many engineering systems includingmechanical, aerospace, electrical, thermal, and fluid systems. Many engineers are increasinglyturning to simulation and virtual prototyping, rather than physical prototyping, to explore newdesign concepts. As the use of simulation increases across all of engineering, the demand forstudents with hands-on experience in configuring, executing, and understanding simulation-based experimentation will also increase.

frequencies range from several hundred MHz to several GHz4.Ionization is a process by which electrons are stripped from atoms and molecules2. This processcan produce molecular changes that can lead to damage in biological tissue, including effects onDNA, the genetic material. This process requires interaction with high levels of electromagneticenergy. Those types of electromagnetic radiation with enough energy to ionize biologicalmaterial include X-radiation and gamma radiation4. Therefore, X-rays and gamma rays areexamples of ionizing radiation.The energy levels associated with RF and microwave radiation, on the other hand, are not greatenough to cause the ionization of atoms and molecules and RF energy is, therefore, is a type ofnon-ionizing

The National Science Foundation has reported that among other factors, half of allU.S. students who start out in engineering disciplines switch to other majors in search of betterteaching, more challenge and opportunities to work in teams on real-world problems. Inresponse to this, there has been a quite revolution in education characterized by the tremendousgrowth in project or process oriented classes with an increased emphasis in hands-on education.One of the most important challenges with this approach to education has to do with
