The injection molding tutor is beneficial to any user thathas little or no previous knowledge of injection molding and design for injection molding. I. IntroductionThere has been a growing drive to incorporate more manufacturing into the engineeringcurriculums across the United States. With this drive there has been a need for developing betterteaching tools to aid in teaching the vast spectrum of manufacturing processes in as efficient amanner as possible. Due to the fact that many engineering concepts are difficult to understand,tools that go beyond simple classroom lecture and textbook work are starting to be developed.Incorporating design

 Abstract: Undergraduate (UG) research is an important component of today’s engineeringeducation. Research experiences allow students to explore beyond the classroom by applyingconcepts towards scientific discovery and the development of products and technologies thatimpact society. The number of UG engineering students interested in participating in research isincreasing. However, UG research opportunities are often limited to students finding a project,laboratory, and mentor on their own. Therefore, only a handful of students typically benefit froma mentored UG research experience. In addition, students seeking UG research opportunities andprojects have little, if any, knowledge on how to conduct research. A well-structured, guided

practicedamong groups of engineers, Solidarity Engineering is still an emerging concept. Rather thanconstrain it through the artificial construct of a limited definition, we provide some guidelines onwhat constitutes Solidarity Engineering.Primarily, Solidarity Engineering is focused on relationships and collaborative processes, ratherthan theoretical models, designs, or products. Relationships are not transactional, but long term,and extend beyond any single project. It is an approach to engineering that prioritizes long termrelationships with the communities being served, connection on a personal level, and a deeperunderstanding of sources of knowledge and wisdom that may be considered unconventional byWestern standards. Solidarity Engineering is

It was noted thatmany jobs are being filled by people with “Certification” training beyond the high school level.While these certified practitioners fill a valuable role the representatives expressed the feelingthat a full four-year BS, with graduate work options is highly desirable as a basis for a leadershiprole in this field. Certification is essentially a fairly narrow training, as witnessed for example, bythe fact that certifications expire. A life-long career requires a broader and deeper education. Themathematical and scientific content of a technical BS degree provides a good foundation for thisdiscipline.There are also other external and objective indicators of the need for programs of this type.

Introduction and Background In 2005, the Journal for Engineering Education (JEE) fielded a special issue focused on The art and science of engineering education research which was drawn largely from a report by the National Academies (The Engineer of 2020). The bottom line of the NAE report [1], and the JEE special edition [2] was that change is hard, but that undergraduate engineering programs must have the ability to change to meet societal needs. It is now 2021, sixteen years after The Engineer of 2020 concept introduction.
