Session 0575 Suggestions for Teaching the Engineering Research Process David J. Lilja University of MinnesotaAbstract: In the process of becoming engineering educators, most professors have successfullydeveloped some fundamental skills that are necessary (although not sufficient) to become asuccessful researcher. However, they often have no clear idea of how to pass this knowledgealong to their students beyond the general approach of carefully guiding their students’individual research efforts. A sense of not knowing where to begin this type of mentoringprocess can

educational methods, students are forced to process infor-mation and learn predominantly with the brain’s left hemisphere. Most of what engineering students mustlearn, however, requires them to develop right-brain processing skills. This leads to a fundamental incompati-bility in the general learning process, an incompatibility which is particularly acute in engineering education:right-brain processing funneled through left-brain "sequential I/O" (i.e., printed text). In contrast, visual mediaprovide a direct, "parallel I/O" path to the brain’s right hemisphere. Clearly, in an increasingly vigorous visualculture, use of visual media as an integral part of instructional delivery — for presentation of lecture material aswell as for interactive, self

However, each university maintains the same foundational selection criteria.Students who have expressed an interest in engineering or computer science are selected for theprogram based on their Pell Grant-eligibility, graduation from a Washington high school where30 percent or more of the students receive free or reduced-price lunch, and the review of theirprogram application. The application involves an interest form, three essays, and an interview.At WSU (which is on a semester system), owing to the limited information provided onapplications, a list of students who are potentially eligible was not generated until May when PellGrant eligibility becomes available.

New educatorscoming directly from industry must quickly make the transition to a type of work that is verydifferent and employs different methods of achieving the desired objectives. Students react bestto a friendly setting with controls employed only as required to maintain class discipline.Without sacrificing quality and quantity of material covered, new instructors may need to slowthe pace and demands on students, for they are not graduate engineers working full-time on anassigned project.

The first is thatATA is not part of the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam (see reference7 page 551) and thesecond is that CEA and MAA are generally not taught in undergraduate engineering economicscourses.A trend in engineering economics education is to teach undergraduates Fundamentals.

Theseteams are known to decrease time-to-market, reduce costs, and improve quality. Terms such as concurrentengineering, simultaneous engineering, and integrated product development have been used to describe thework performed by these product design teams. Engineering education has been slow to follow this trend. For the most part, students take courses andperform laboratory exercises in their chosen major, with little exposure to other disciplines. They rarely, ifever, work together with students from other disciplines. There are numerous reasons for this phenomenon.On one hand, the scope of required topics has
