This last type of projects fit very much the interests of engineering majors.Students in biology and chemistry programs can sign-on to perform analytical chemistry andother lab work, especially assisting in research tasks 2 and 3, based on their analytical chemistrycourse work and general lab experience. Specific measurements that fit their expertise includeDifferential Scanning Calorimetry, Thermogravitmetric Analysis, Thermoporometry, andScanning Electron Microscopy.Table 1: Research tasks and projects offered to students Research/Design Activity

This certificateprogram was designed and approved as a direct response to industry need. I foresaw the changes inengagement expectations and developed a partnership with a company and human resource director thatoffers an excellent example on how tenure-track faculty can incorporate the engagement, discovery andlearning triad for a successful progression.I started working with this company and by partnering with the management there we offered an in-houseeducational program at their corporate headquarters..

Two factors require us tore-think our approach to operating spacecraft. First, the number of operational spacecraft isincreasing all the time. Second, breakthroughs in spacecraft design, especially in the area ofminiaturization and on-board processing, allow us automate many of the operational functions onthe spacecraft. Operators must now be able to monitor more spacecraft, know which operationsfunctions are performed on the spacecraft, and understand how the spacecraft should respond tocommands, both onboard and from the ground.
