Information on the development and distribution of these posters will be presented.IntroductionAs with any new and emerging technology, societal and ethical issues play an important part intheir development and incorporation into society and industry. Nanoscale science andengineering (NSE) will be one of those technologies which will have a significant impact onscience, engineering, industry, and society. To address the issues brought forth with NSE, theNational Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network (NNIN) seeks to integrate and develop a socialand ethical consciousness throughout the breadth of network activities while becoming thenation’s leading open-access research facility for the study of science
healthengineering (dual-level graduate and undergraduate, elective); and 3) biologicalprinciples of environmental engineering (graduate only, required course). These courseswere offered at the Missouri University of Science and Technology and through MissouriOnline distance education. The primary audience included students of environmentalengineering as well as students of civil engineering and architectural engineering andstudents of nursing. The module included an overview of community engagement,gathering community information, co-identification of a problem and a solution, andtesting the solution.While many forms of community engagement often aim to unearth problems and co-design solutions in a partnership between the researcher/scholar and

regarding Green Technology in the energy industry. Thestudents will use the given information along with the phase diagram to develop a method tomeasure the thermal conductivity of nanofluid. This method must be applicable for nanofluidsand pure materials like water without any modification or adjustments to the apparatus.The students don’t need to CAD design for the assignment. Instead, they are required to onlydevelop the experiment process simply with hand sketches for both the material housing andexperiment process flowcharts. The assignment is only a preliminary attempt to push students’minds beyond basic Thermodynamic equations and understand one of the many applications ofthermodynamics.The submissions will receive feedback from the founder

Accordingto James Canton, as the innovations fostered by convergent technologies emerge faster,disruptions are expected to increase.5 Additionally, in order to support rapid technologicalchange, many other things must change—such as educational curricula, workforce skill setsand business models. This situation is rapidly becoming the norm in today’s electronicindustry. Solutions exist in the form of new, sophisticated and savvy thinking about the realpotential of the emerging technologies of the next decade, so that higher-educationinstitutions can prepare graduates to

Also, the findings holdthe potential to serve as a benchmark for other MSIs nationwide seeking support and tracking ofBlack transfer students in engineering to promote their educational attainment.IntroductionUpward transfer pathways, which facilitate students' movement from community colleges (CCs)to four-year colleges and universities, are of significant national importance [1]. In science,technology, engineering, and math (STEM) programs, the upward transfer pathways increaseSTEM graduates and the capacity of the workforce [2]. In particular, these pathways are pivotalfor 1) Broadening participation in engineering, 2) Increasing the number of future engineers, and3) Promoting educational equity and workforce development in the
individuals or entities that are connected by sets of ties, where theties represent different types of relationships [41]. Within a network, individuals gain access to resourcesthrough those ties, some of which provide more access to resources than others [41]. In collaborativestudent teams, peer-relations and informal social structures that emerge from these relations, or networkties, is a source of student learning [18, 20]. The structured peer-relations support student learning byenabling exchange of knowledge and expertise between students, and by allowing for interactionsbetween peers of different intellectual development. Within this context, individuals can freely seekadvice, information, and assistance to help them in their work, where advice
