a number of students take an elective statistics course, students’ main exposure to data analysis in our program comes from a three course in-major laboratory sequence. These courses each target different technical content while emphasizing common skills, including writing (technical memos, lab reports, design reports), formal presentations (oral and poster), and statistical analysis techniques to quantify uncertainty in measured data. The first laboratory (sophomore year) targets instrumentation and measurement techniques and introduces the concept of bias and precision uncertainty. The second laboratory (junior year) focuses on experiments related to the mechanics of materials and structures and

Engineering problems are inherently composed of multi-physicsinteractions that must be considered in each step of the design, but we are going to break thisdown in a more linear fashion and highlight the connections instead of completing a full design.Step 1 - Heat Transfer:Consider a simplified cooling fin array as shown in Figure 1.Figure 1: General cooling flow channel.The bottom surface is exposed to the surface of the rat, and the top is exposed to the ambientenvironment.

Among three sections of the flipped classroom, the average final grade ofstudents in the flipped classroom was 4.66, 8.82, and 9.93 percentage points higher than studentsin the traditional classroom.IntroductionSuccessful educators relentlessly seek the best method to teach students. Often the “best” methoddepends on the course material, the students, the learning outcomes, and the instructor.

Problem solving skills are critical to becoming an effective engineer. With minimalapplication opportunities for upper-level course material in the typical engineering curriculum,students are often not sufficiently prepared to accomplish rigorous design projects in industryimmediately following graduation. Having the requisite knowledge is only one part of the task;being able to effectively utilize and apply prior knowledge requires more advanced learningoutcomes.
