industrial suppliers like Grainger or McMasterCarr. Institutions which rely on more traditional purchase order systems like requisitions will find it much more difficult to obtain parts in a timely manner, and may have to create “kits” of more of the class materials to compensate. The MIT Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) office was instrumental to securing locations on campus for the event to occur. A safety plan for both the scooters and bicycles based class, as well as the gokart class, was made in consultation with them. Close collaboration with MIT EHS kept everyone informed about requirements and challenges, and early communication in the semester helped the process flow smoothly
they learn in a classroom environment and its reflection in professional applications. In addition, this collaboration bridges the gap between academia and industry. This semester was spent towards building a positive working relationship with industry. As the course is offered only once a calendar year, we will implement the plans generated by these ideas in Fall 2005.

Mikhail, Purdue University Northest, and Peter Zafiro, LinMot USA, Inc.AbstractThe benefits of university-industry partnerships and collaborations (UIPC) are many. Thestrength of university programs depends on staying relevant to innovative technology and currentmarket trends, not only regionally but globally.

will need to be working on too far in advance. Perhaps the most major challengeis the lack of time for both partners.It is helpful, therefore, to maximize all opportunities to interact with regional and local industry.This paper outlines the numerous types of contact our program has with local industry and howwe have attempted to use every morsel of input we can gain to inform our curriculum.

It is a very dynamic experience Proceedings of the 2018 Conference for Industry and Education Collaboration Copyright ©2018 American Society for Engineering Education Session ETD 526that provides students a clear view of what it is to be an engineer and what their possibilities forthe future are.The final goal of this project is to
features, better ability tochange or edit already existing CAD data, and the application of the technology across functional(i.e. job-related) boundaries. One industry leader has labeled these important issues as “ease-of-use”, “ease-of-modification”, and “ease-of-collaboration”2, and it is apparent that CAD vendorsmust continue to be conscious of these areas as they develop new releases of software if theydesire to remain successful.As CAD systems technology has improved and accelerated, and as acceptance has grown andalso accelerated, CAD gradually has moved from being a fringe element in the design process toa much more mainstream function in product design. Continued developments in hardwarecapability and affordability, as well as software

(Criterion 5 – Curriculum – “An advisory committee with representationfrom organizations being served by the program graduates...”), thus may have the greatest impactto a school’s accreditation for the particular program being considered. Even with non-accredited programs, the Advisory Board can provide great benefits for any particular programstudent’s success. While the remaining four items may not have direct impact to accreditation, Proceedings of the 2018 Conference for Industry and Education Collaboration Copyright ©2018, American Society for Engineering Education Session ETD 506each provides an opportunity for a school
cultivated by academic cooperation.Long term collaboration in education builds trust in relationships, since education is the areaof interaction when parties cannot rely only on their formal agreements. In this respect, thepersonal attitudes and a degree of belief between the partners play an important role as well.The research described in this paper focuses on a model of international cooperation betweena Russian engineering university and its Vietnamese colleagues, and the ability of thatconsortium to attract industrial partners in Vietnam and Russia. It demonstrates thatinternational academic collaboration could become a target-oriented mechanism of enhancingindustrial growth and its internationalization.Regional Innovative Clusters in Russia

Relationships are developed and nurtured through learner to self, learnerto others, and learner to the world at large.Some forms of experiential learning include (Indiana University, 2006; Moore, 2010):Internships, Service Learning, Cooperative Education, Clinical Education, Student Teaching,Workshop, Undergraduate Research Experience, Community-Based Research, Field Work, andStudy Abroad. Our focus in this paper is on internship through industry-based experientiallearning. In these opportunities, students, mentored by faculty and supported by the collegeadministration, work with an individual, group, organization, network or other entity, oftenunderstood as “industry partners” or collaborators.

The benchmarkingof other comparable programs, our proposed curriculum, and the sources and qualificationsof prospective students are discussed.II.

portion ofresearch dollars to purchase and upgrade equipment, software, computers, and pay studentemployees, this puts Western at somewhat of a competitive disadvantage. To deal with thisissue, industrial partnerships were identified to help provide valuable resources to thecurriculum. Knowing that no partnership will work without there being advantages to bothsides, the partnership also involved providing the industrial partner with much needed technicalsupport wherever possible to create a collaborative relationship. To that end, WKU, inpartnership with Scottys Contracting, created the Construction and Engineering TechnicalAssistance Center.2.

consortium of smaller companies may sign a formal agreement for a body ofongoing research activities with a particular university. The Ford-MIT alliance is an example ofthis sort of partnership. (1) At the other extreme, a single company may choose to sponsor asingle student or small group to develop a design. Many schools operate such a sponsorshipsystem for their capstone design courses. (2) In between, there are many different levels ofcooperation.This paper discusses collaboration between an industry consortium and a mechanical engineeringdepartment that involved several different types of work over a six-year period. Initially, theconsortium provided a project for inclusion in a single-quarter senior design course. Later, theyfunded a number of
programs. The core objective of this research is to develop anddisseminate an engineering curriculum implementing learning activities to teach the skill oftroubleshooting. To achieve this, the study employs interviews with experienced engineers toexplore their approaches to troubleshooting and problem solving in industry. The insights gainedfrom these interviews are channeled towards the creation of a framework that incorporates asystematic approach to troubleshooting. We incorporate also widely used practices in sub-stagesof troubleshooting, as informed by our pilot study. The study's findings hold implications foreducators, industry professionals, and curriculum designers seeking to enhance the problem-solving skills of college students as
commitment from the faculty involved, have your industrialpartner select the areas of applied research, have faculty from more than one departmentinvolved to show collaboration, select the best faculty members for each area of appliedresearch, present a flawless proposal and submit it in a timely manner.Almost all of the work on the grant is completed and the required report to NSF will beprepared in a few months. It has been an interesting and worthwhile experience and, Ibelieve that any energetic faculty member, with industrial contacts can obtain a similargrant with sufficient preparation and effort.

regular Industrial Advisory Board meetings, JBU arranges an OpenForum Panel where students are encouraged to ask board members any questions they may have.These questions cover a very broad range of student interests including, for example, how to getan internship, what industry is looking for when hiring new graduates, the utility of getting aprofessional engineering license, and how to prepare for admission to graduate school. After arecent forum, a survey was given to the students with 61 responding. The overwhelmingresponse was very positive and included suggestions for improving future forums.IntroductionIndustry-University CollaborationThere are many ways that industry and academia can collaborate to educate engineering students.Industry
