interactingwith a relative “expert” in the unfamiliar field. We feel that this enhanced learning significantly,and hope to measure this outcome in future course assessment.As emphasized in the student evaluation comments, exposure to computational tools (e.g.MATLAB) or wet-lab techniques (e.g. intracellular recording) represented experiences outsidethe traditional curriculum for one or the other group, and were very well received.Summary. By developing three new courses to serve as the backbone of the NeuralEngineering curriculum (Models of the Nervous System, Neural Engineering I, NeuralEngineering II), we have coalesced a large amount of material from traditionally separatecurricula. We believe that the undergraduate courses, when combined with

INTRODUCTIONEmbedded system design and implementation is a key component in the undergraduate computerengineering curriculum. In an era of mobile and ubiquitous computing, a competent embeddeddevice should have a real-time operating system (RTOS) to make full use of its potentials and toaccommodate task needs. Deploying an RTOS also makes the programming job of embeddedsystem engineers easier. Instead of embedded system engineers writing their own code

main topics of the curriculum.I. IntroductionThe engineering design graphics curriculum is at a crossroads. Computer technology is enablingengineers and technicians to design and manufacture parts without relying on two-dimensionaldrawings. The curricula at many universities and community colleges still spend a great deal oftime focusing on 2D documentation drawings. This is even truer at the high school level. There areseveral possible reasons why some programs have not changed to a curriculum that focuses onconstraint-based, three-dimensional solids modeling. One obstacle to this type of change has beenthe cost of hardware and software. Some constraint-based programs can cost tens of thousands ofdollars and cannot realistically be purchased

While thiscourse is received very well by the students and has led to fruitful presentations and publications,it has a low enrollment volume from undergraduate students due to its relatively highprogramming requirements. A more sophisticated strategy is required to equip mechanicalengineering students with data science skills without disturbing the existing curriculum. Inspiredby the success of computer-aided design education at the University of Arkansas and the DataScience InFusion into Undergraduate STEM Education (DIFUSE) program at DartmouthCollege, we have developed course-specific machine learning modules to be integrated intomechanical

The termproject in the current course had a similar theme. Students working in their lab groups wererequired to propose a measurement experiment, design the procedure, perform the experiment,and present the results in a written and an oral report.The project consisted of three milestones. The first milestone was a proposal in which studentshad to provide a clear statement of the problem they were interested

, student numbers for each class inthe first 3 years surpass 160. Given these large numbers and a tight curriculum focused ontechnical material, lecturers are usually not able (or willing) to allocate lecture, tutorial, or labtime for individual students or even groups of students to deliver oral presentations. In the finalyear, students are supposed to have more opportunities to improve their professional skills;however, with some class numbers surpassing 75 students, it is becoming impractical to allocatetime for oral presentations of individual or group projects. In Advanced Hydrology, forexample, group project reports and oral presentations have traditionally been a highlight of thecourse. However, with last years class size of 78 students, 4
