Besides teaching both undergraduate and graduate design and education related classes at Stanford University, she conducts research on engineering education and work-practices, and applied finite element analysis. From 1999-2008 she served as a Senior Scholar at the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, leading the Foundation’s engineering study (as reported in Educating Engineers: Designing for the Future of the Field). In addition, in 2011 Dr. Sheppard was named as co-PI of a national NSF innovation center (Epicenter), and
the Industrial Consortium to Foster Applied Research for Economic Growth at Tecnol´ogico de Monterrey; also he holds The Roberto Rocca Endowed Energy Research Chair and is the Director of the Master in Energy Engineering Program. In 1979 he got a design engineer position in an Argentinean-French Consortium of private Industrial companies. He worked for them twelve years. In 1991 he left this consortium and with a group of colleagues founded an Engineering Services Company for developing special equipment in the electronics area for industrial applications. Simultaneously to its industrial activities, in 1984 he began teaching at Instituto Tecnol´ogico de Buenos Aires, ITBA. Later, in 1997, he became full-time
. With over 20 years of industrial work experience, and supportive of her academic roles, Mary actively leads academic outreach to industrial firms to develop in-classroom, project-based, active learning through identification of ”real life”, in-context problem scenarios. Pilotte’s research interests involve understanding engineering culture, identity, and communication in the context of professional engineering practice. Expanded interests include understanding student benefits associated with in-context active learning, innovative distance learning, and global learning experiences.

multiple initiatives found that some of their requestswould seemingly end up in a black hole. This may have happened for a variety of reasons. Thecorporate partner may have reached out to someone who was simply unaware of the servicesoffered by another department. They may have also been transferred to so many differentindividuals on a quest to find the right contact that they lost momentum and decided to stoppursuing the idea. In other cases, they may have been a victim of timing, where faculty werefocused on teaching and/or research and unable to respond to their requests in a timely manner.Whatever the reason, there was no central point of contact managing the relationship that was beable to navigate the internal organization in order to
