Most of the mechanical engineering students have very little research experienceby the time they graduate and even less so in engines, fuels and engine exhaust emissions.To address some of these problems an undergraduate research program was developed andimplemented in the mechanical engineering department. Initially, the program catered to a verysmall number of students seeking to work on research projects in the subject area. However, inthe last two years, the National Science Foundation has been funding the project under itsResearch Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program. The funding allows up to eightstudents from different institutions to work with the faculty and graduate students onexperimental and analytical projects in

Cooperative and Experiential Education

. IntroductionThis evidence-based paper assesses strategies for Research Experience for Undergraduates(REU) social program success. REU programs typically bring together students from across thecountry – or even around the world – to a university campus for the summer. While at thisuniversity, the students learn how to conduct real research in their discipline by actually doing it,under the supervision of a faculty mentor. Giving students exposure to conducting bona fideresearch allows them to determine whether they may be interested in pursuing a research career(and, to support this, continuing on to graduate-level education).Many students who participate in REU programs remember these programs long after theprogram is complete. The initial experience

Initiative (WPSI). The acronym was changed from“WPSE” to WPSI. We dropped the “E” as our intent was never to be exclusive to non-engineering students or faculty members. At ASEE 2014, we presented preliminary results fromthe first WPSI iteration. Following the 2014 conference, we identified the need for a valid,reliable, and easily replicable assessment measure that could be used both within and outside ofWPSI to measure the attainment of a series of sustainability-related learning objectivesthroughout the engineering education research community.1 In this paper, we present the ongoingdevelopment and refinement of this measure, the Sustainability Skills and Dispositions Scale(SSDS).

Second, it can properly be classified as one of theworld’s first design competitions.
