More broadly, the program is designed to help redress the grave andcontinuing underrepresentation of minorities in those careers.II. Institutional BackgroundUnion College is a small liberal arts college in Schenectady, NY. Founded in 1795, it was the firstarts college to offer engineering as part of its curriculum. In the fall of 2000 the undergraduatestudent population was 2,064. Of these, 172 (8.3%) were students from underrepresentedminorities. Minority representation among more than 300 students advised by our HealthProfessions Program is 17.2%III. Recruitment of Program

Students from Penn StateUniversity, SUNY Geneseo and Lincoln University worked together on the project, withadditional support from engineers at NASA Wallops Flight Facility. An active publicitycampaign and K-12 outreach program also conducted by undergraduate education and publicitystudents complemented the technical work. A one-credit course supported project work. Bymost measures, the project was an unqualified success. This paper reviews our success criteria,the organization and pedagogical methods used in SPIRIT and an assessment of this researchproject approach to undergraduate education.SPIRIT was designed to be an educational program with a meaningful scientific component.The scientific mission for this

Automation is becoming a part and parcel of every industry, and industries need atrained workforce to manage this new developments and tools. As a result, engineering,technology, and science programs are under pressure to incorporate the use of new advances incomputing, simulation and visualization packages, or computer technologies into theircurriculum so their graduates can be well-trained in the use and the application of thesetechnologies and serve the needs of the industry.

Existing and new failure case studies are being included in a number ofundergraduate courses offered across a number of semesters in a number of participatinguniversities.Universities and Courses in the StudyThis manuscript reviews results from four of the universities, Cleveland State

That is, it is fairly easy to distinguish betweenconceptual errors, syntax errors, potential programming errors in the problem, etc. Usingstandard e-mail alone to provide virtual assistance to students affords none of these niceties andis generally unsatisfactory when used for this purpose.

Therefore, the laboratoryexercises conducted during the nuclear reactor design course at West Point revolved around measuringand calculating the flux at different positions in a given geometry. The neutron flux is the number ofneutrons per unit area per unit time. Because the neutron density is higher within proximity to a fissionsource, it follows that the flux will be the highest near the center of the source and decrease with distancefrom the source.Later in the course
