feel they do not know enough yet to be avaluable contributor to a club or instructionally related project team.Some schools have attempted to give lower division engineering students hands-on project instruction byintroducing freshman design courses into the required curriculum​3-7​. These courses have proven verysuccessful, but may not be possible to implement at many colleges and universities due to resourceconstraints - practical hands-on courses require a low faculty to student ratio and schools may just nothave the funds to staff enough sections.This paper describes an approach to give lower division engineering students a structured introduction tohands-on engineering skills in a resource constrained environment. The approach is a 10

. The other is that courses have in general becomenarrower in their technical focus as the depth of knowledge has developed. In addition, thecross‐disciplinary content is often quite limited. To be a material engineer, one should notonly focus on the science research in materials but also in application of traditional andadvanced materials in a wide spectrum of areas. We all know that training Materialengineers for the next generation requires more than teaching them knowledge of materialscience. Learning to apply the design process as reported can be the key for students tounderstand the blending of Materials Science with humanity needs [1-3]. There are manyways to define “design” in different fields. Here we would like to use the

The terms “3Dprinting” and “additive manufacturing (AM)” are sometimes used interchangeably, as thisprocess enables economical and rapid prototyping of various product designs within a very shorttime period. 3D printing is a process of producing three dimensional (3D) objects from digitalmodels in which the solid objects are made by laying down successive layers of various types ofmaterials: such as polymers, metals, ceramics, and composites.1,2,3 In contrast, traditionalmachining techniques are considered to be a “subtractive process” technique, which the productsor parts are mostly machined out from stock materials.3 The recent technical advancement

Transfer credits (including AP and IB credits) are used to determine readiness forcourses above Calculus I.
