scratch, I don't think we were prepared for it. But it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be after design 1 and 2. • The idea of our own "grass roots" project and developing the entire design and cost analysis in a small team is an incredible idea as an exit course for seniors. • The design procedure seemed to be beneficial. I was able to get first hand experience in what it takes to design a process.

outreachprograms will be presented. The organizational structure and method of operation will also bediscussed, including impact on organization employees, organizational structure philosophiesutilized, and the 10, 20, 30 40 rule that have enabled the organization to provide balancedoutreach at all grade levels. Lessons learned will also be presented. The overall purpose of thispaper is to document what a large STEM outreach organization may look like, so that otherorganizations can gain insight for their growth or sustainability.Index Terms - Active Learning; Classroom; Education, Engineer; Invention; Innovation; Science;STEM; Outreach; Picatinny Arsenal; Volunteering; WorkshopsI.

. IntroductionThe goal of the College of Engineering, Technology and Computer Science at Tennessee StateUniversity is to offer educational programs that support the mission of the University and itsgoverning board, which is "an educated Tennessee." It is therefore our mission to offereducational programs that will prepare our graduates for high paying future careers that addressthe needs of our society. This paper describes systematic development of two unique graduateprograms leading to Master of Science and Ph.D. in Computer and Information SystemsEngineering (CISE) and successful implementation of the master's program.2.

Based on program-level feedback from our Air Force Program Review Committee, graduate and supervisor surveys,former faculty conferences, and internal feedback from our students it is clear that our efforts tobring construction experience into the curriculum have been successful. For example, oneformer senior faculty member stated, “I believe the increased emphasis on construction is good

my own journey through engineering education on the way togetting my first degree in civil engineering in the early 1960s, I may set the tone of this paper onan autobiographical course, but the intent and scope of the paper is much broader. It is to use myown example and my own experiences to explain what role does ‘practical training’ play in theoverall professional development of a student. The phrase ‘practical training’ has other names,such as internship, co-op, work experience, etc. Going through an academically rigorous 5-yeardegree program in civil engineering at the time when the space exploration and the race to get tothe moon were on the high priority list, our school required that all engineering studentscomplete one summer after
