intrinsicchallenges, such as the need to account for the differences in the technical background of thestudents. Student-faculty interaction outside the classroom may play a particularly important rolein effectively meeting these challenges in multidisciplinary courses.To this end, we build upon an applied communications framework developed by Fusani3 toinvestigate the impact of student-faculty interaction outside the classroom in a variety of coursesin a multidisciplinary engineering program. Our purpose is to identify qualities of successfulstudent-faculty interaction to help both students and faculty optimize their contact outside theclassroom.MethodsOur study focused on three courses within the ABET-accredited general engineering curriculumat a small

The field of nanoscience is growing exponentially over the past years and nanotechnology is impacting our daily lives in many ways 1. The National Science Foundation (NSF) estimates that the job projection for nanotechnology will cover around several million workers worldwide and about $3 trillion in sales for nanotechnology related products by 20202. With this demand, nanotechnology education is being offered by more and more universities around the world. This implies the importance of the education and training on a new generation of skilled individuals in nanotechnology. In other words, it is necessary to have an effective teaching and

Thus, dividing the coursematerial can improve class performance.IntroductionTo increase student learning and classroom participation, many different techniques are appliedin engineering schools. Some instructors use the traditional instructor-led method, some use ahybrid method or flipped classroom.

In this study,which was part of a project conducted for HVAC & Refrigeration class (MET 42100), the teamdecided to investigate ways to reduce energy or improve the coefficient of performance (COP)and efficiency of refrigeration cycles by looking into energy consumption in the condenser unit ofthe system. Sometimes overlooked and underappreciated, a power plant condenser can make orbreak the efficiency and power delivery goals. Understanding how important a role thecondenser plays is a good step toward greater energy conservation awareness. The teamconducted a parametric study to analytically investigate improvements

-based learning and active learning, also referred to as inductive learning have been extensivelyresearched. While the results of these various pedagogies vary, in general, their effect on studentlearning has been demonstrated to be positive in comparison to traditional lecturing.A hands-on approach to learning concepts of aerospace engineering is therefore not a newpedagogical approach and has found wide usage, and enhanced learning has been reported in theliterature. This aspect has been acknowledged by professional societies who have supported itsadoption. Thus, while engineering education over the years has emphasized capstone designactivities, more recently aerospace engineering curricula have incorporated elements of buildingand flying

According to U.S. Energy Information Administration'sInternational Energy Outlook 2017, world’s energy consumption is expected to increase by 48%between year 2015 and 2040.A fluid power system [1] transforms available form of energy to mechanical energy through theuse of a fluid media. It also deals with transmission and control of forces and motion using apressurized fluid. In general, a fluid power system, specifically hydraulics system is a cost-effective solution of problems requiring high power density and large reversible force or torque inan application.

The variable pitch propeller is used in small single engine general aviationaircraft and in large turbo prop heavy lift aircraft. To help students study and understand theseconcepts, the apparatus was designed where the propeller was mounted on a truck bed that rollsover a platform. The truck bed was attached with a stationary digital force measurement scale.As the thrust increases, the truck bed moves and the amount of thrust being produced by thepropellers is measured using the scale.
