CMMI Division. Like many faculty at strictly undergraduate institutions, weroutinely provide opportunities for students to work on research projects and fund this researchin some situations through external grants. An innovation in this particular grant was the creationof a research collaboration between faculty and students at Lafayette and an NSF-fundedEngineering Research Center (ERC). As stated on the NSF website, “The goal of the ERCProgram is to integrate engineering research and education with technological innovation totransform national prosperity, health, and security.” To accomplish this goal, collaborationsbetween ERCs and other institutions are inherent in the work of an ERC; however, researchcollaborations between ERCs and small

We look forward to formally collect data and contribute to further evidence through scholarshipof teaching and learning. Generation Z students, the most diverse and inclusive group, seek real-world skillsthat prepare them for a career. The ongoing course redesign, although challenging preliminarily providesan equitable foundation for the students to gain real world skills that will help them see their fit in andobtain an engineering degree.

Simulink provides a comprehensive block library of sinks, sources, linear andnonlinear components, and connectors.Models are hierarchical, so users can build models using both top-down and bottom-upapproaches. They can view the system at a high level, and then double-click on blocks togo down through the levels to see increasing levels of model detail. This approachprovides insight into how a model is organized and how its parts interact. After theydefine a model, they can simulate it, using a choice of integration methods, either fromthe Simulink menus or by entering commands in MATLAB’s command window

Indeed, ASEE has already begun to try andimpact K-12 through a number of initiatives including the all day seminar initiated at the pastthree national conferences. The YOD on the other hand was an attempt to get a handle on thevarious aspects of engineering education through research and to build on the momentum startedby such schools as Purdue and Virginia Tech, which have started engineering educationprograms.

Schlieren imaging is a popular flow visualization technique because despite itsstraightforward setup and reliance on very simple geometrical optics principles, it is a powerfulmethod for capturing high-quality images of what would otherwise be invisible flow phenomena[5, 6, 7]. There are many different optical setups used in schlieren imaging, but each is based onthe bending of light through a transparent material with refractive index variations, such as thoseassociated with the density fields of compressible and thermal convection flows. These densityvariations are invisible to the naked human eye, but can be effectively detected and imaged withschlieren optics. The ability to see the invisible nature of

In higher carburizing temperatures, the thermal energy suppliedto the diffusing carbon atoms permits the atoms to overcome the activation energy barrier andeasily move to neighboring lattice sites [2,3]. In conclusion, the rate at which carbon can beadded to the steel specimen, is controlled by the diffusivity of carbon.2) EXAMPLE IN FICK'S SECOND LAW A gear made of AISI 1020 steel is to be strengthened by the carburizing treatmentprocess.

Additionally, some of these projects’ scopes intersect with other fields of expertiseand require students to learn content beyond their training. Another challenge with sponsoredprojects is balancing the student’s learning outcomes with the expectation of a deliverable.Often, sponsors conclude their collaborations if they perceive that little or no progress has beenmade on their project.
