Education, 2024 Work in Progress: Education, Experience, and Certification Through Micro-Credential Program in Radio Frequency Engineering for Engineering Technology StudentsIntroductionRadio Frequency (RF) Engineering is a field in electrical engineering that studies the propertiesand applications of signals in various frequency ranges from tens of hertz (Hz) to a few hundredgigahertz (1 GHz is 109 Hz). The main subjects in RF engineering include topics such asantennas, transmission lines, signal propagation, and components used in RF systems.The demand for RF engineers has been increasing recently due to the proliferation of wirelessdevices and applications in both commercial and defense settings. There is

This isbecause the only difference is the material that is being used for these two different pavementtypes. The layer thickness is obtained from the ESAL calculator from the NYSDOT website(Table 3 and Table 4).Table 3: Layer Specifications for No RAP and 30% RAP Length

tools into the curriculum.Computational methods and simulation-based problem-solving have been widely used byengineers to develop optimal designs. Most undergraduate engineering and technology coursesdo not use computational problem-solving methods. Use of this software requires knowledge ofthe physical phenomenon learned in courses such as fluid mechanics and mechanics ofmaterials. Due to a lack of understanding of the concepts, and unavailability of an introductorycourse in CFD or FEA, they are unable to develop the knowledge or skills with these analyticaltools. The engineering and technology program comprises a set of mandatory courses andoptional electives, leaving no space for extra courses. Therefore, these simulation-based

unique challenges engineering students face in hands-on courses. To address this gap,this study used a questionnaire to gather engineering students’ perspectives on course design anddelivery. The findings highlight the challenges faced by students in online engineering courseswith hands-on components, such as difficulty in collaborating with peers. To address thesechallenges, recommendations are proposed, such as incorporating virtual and augmented reality(VR/AR) technologies and simulations to enhance the online hands-on component, providingopportunities for students to apply their knowledge in a hands-on setting, and supplementinghands-on components with video lectures and demonstrations. By addressing these challenges,faculty can improve

Most notably, chatbots like ChatGPT have made it possible to produce answers tocomplex questions and perform a limited set of professional tasks. While these tools are far fromperfect, they can act as semi-competent assistants for engineers. We should expect these resultsto improve over time and allow engineers to produce more advanced work in a shorter time.However, this calls for an effective approach to work with AI while cultivating the

engineering technology students, however, do nottypically get exposed to more in-depth courses of vibration and modal analysis. To assistmechanical engineering technology students into concepts of vibration and modal analysis in amanufacturing environment, FE modeling serves as an excellent learning tool. An FE model ofan extended long milling cutter enables students to visualize the properties of a vibrating systemand relate the natural frequencies back to spindle speed. Forced vibration models help themunderstand the resulting cutter displacements from the input force excitation. Modal analysis andforced vibration exposure help students understand the characteristics of vibration and how tomitigate this undesirable effect from traditional machining
