Engineering, including three introducedabove, are presented in Table 1. As a young engineering program, the school has not had manyseniors from semester to semester. Many projects were completed by one senior although he orshe worked in a group setting with many technical professionals at the companies and theengineering faculty as shown in the table. There were two academic years without any projectsince the program had no seniors. Two projects were sponsored by the School of Engineering tobuild a material testing load frame and a consolidometer loading frame to be used forinstructional purposes in classes for the school. There were a few projects that involved non-seniors. Their participation and contribution to the projects were meant for a

Page 26.876.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2015 Identifying Roles in University-Industry Research PartnershipsAbstractThe term “university-industry partnership” is quickly becoming an over-generalized term used todescribe the countless ways that academia and industry engage with one another. Additionally,within these partnerships there are further over-generalizations of the participants as either“academic” or “industrial.” As the national interest in the U.S. for improving researchcollaboration between universities

Sponsors Involved with MDCThe company representatives were contacted thru an email inviting them to participate in theanonymous online survey using Qualtrics. The survey included general demographical questionsrelated to the number of years and company personnel involved with capstone as well as theircompany’s vested interests in participating in the program. This was followed by evaluating theMDC’s program learning outcomes as it relates to an engineer’s early professional career (< 5years of experience) and the MDC program. Table 1 includes the program’s learning outcomecategories as related to ABET Criteria 3. Using a Likert scale, respondents were first asked torate the importance of each category to an engineer’s early professional career

The arrangement of thetiers in this shape is not meant to be hierarchical, or to imply that competencies at thetop are at a higher level of skill. Instead, the model’s tapered shape represents theincreasing specialization and specificity of proficiencies covered. Its tiers are furtherdivided into blocks that represent competency areas (i.e., groups of knowledge, skills,and abilities), which are defined using critical work functions and technical contentareas.Foundational Competencies Competency – A cluster ofTiers 1 through 3 represent the “soft skills” and work related knowledge
