Society for Engineering Education, 2012 Student Learning Outcomes from an Environmental Engineering Summer Research ProgramAbstractIntensive summer research programs have the opportunity to help students achieve a widevariety of learning outcomes, while also deepening their interest in graduate school andincreasing their overall confidence. This research explored the learning outcomes from an NSF-funded Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) site in environmental engineering at theUniversity of Colorado Boulder. The ten-week REU site included lab, field, and modelingprojects on the quality and treatment of water, soil, and air. The REU site successfully attractedan over-representation of female and minority

When industry and academiacollaborate, their purposes may be very different, e.g., academia focuses on education andtheoretical research, and industry in general focuses on products and process efficiency.Therefore, it is not easy for faculty members in engineering programs to find collaborationprojects that represent a win-win situation for both industry and academia.
