-a faculty advisor and a graduate studentmentor-who oversee and guide the student during their nine-week internship in an independentresearch project. In addition to their research projects, TTE participants are trained in laboratorysafety, research protocol, and professional ethics; they partake in academic and professionaldevelopment seminars to prepare for a baccalaureate degrees and careers in science andengineering. Approximately 94% of the past TTE students eligible to transfer to a 4-yearinstitution were admitted to and are now enrolled various universities across the nation andmajoring in science or engineering in comparison to a 39% statewide average1. This paper willfocus on the impact of the program on the interest in pursuing an
project on the environment, the economy,society and human well-being in both the short term and long term. To achieve the objective, theSSE program should provide students with a fundamental knowledge of civil, electrical,mechanical, environmental engineering and social science, such as economics and politicalscience. The leadership of engineers requires students to establish the competence ofresponsibility, integrity, ethics, proactivity and communication skills.Systems engineering is a shifted paradigm from traditional engineering approaches. This methodfocuses on engineering solutions from a broader perspective that includes optimizationparameters, long term lifecycle analysis and advanced methods to characterize and solvecomplex problems

These courses address importanttopics for young researchers, such as a re-introduction of the scientific method, scientific writing © American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 2018 ASEE Southeastern Section Conferenceof proposals and papers, and ethical considerations. For departments with such structuredcourses, new graduate students develop their research skills together, which saves the students’advisors time in teaching them basics individually. Such a system also avoids frustration due tolost productivity in the early stages of their studies.Many of these ideas are independent of the field of study, hence they can be taught by anythoughtful instructor who has
community members. Even as students have good intentions, there is atendency to focus on what seems solvable over what community members indicate are priorities.This is a result of years of outcomes-focused, over relational, educational practices. In theabsence of meaningful relationships, it is easy to lose sight of the purpose of communityengagement. Technologies that students create do not serve the needs of community partners,and community partners suffer as a result.At the same time, engineers’ desire to help and strong work ethic lend themselves well toworking on issues of social justice [3]. In recent years, critical pedagogy has influenced service-learning programs as educators have attempted to engage the action-reflection

How do we model for the students everything that is worthy inprofessional education as well as general education? One way is for faculty to see theirmission as one that converges. Application of this convergence needs to be modeled forthe students throughout their program of study in order for them to be able to makeconnections among professional education outcomes, general education outcomes andlife experience.Body of the PaperProfessional education (for example: engineering, architecture, nursing) is seeing ademand to increase the content and depth of knowledge as technology and the variousfields evolves.

Theevaluation form covers such aspects as project objectives, quality of the literature review,application of appropriate methodologies, findings and analysis of data, achievement ofeducational goals, and quality of the writing and presentation.To address ABET EC 2000, the following outcomes are included in the assessment: 15, 16 • an ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams; • a recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning; • a knowledge of contemporary issues; • an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility; • the broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global and societal context.Figure 1 presents example rubrics for
pervasive science, a broader education for engineeringstudents is needed. Arguably, all engineering students must be exposed to the basic tenants ofbiology if they are to function as responsible and informed citizens in a society threatened bybioterrorism and struggling with the ethical issue of human cloning. Although these examplesdemonstrate the critical need for engineers to understand biology, they only represent the “tip ofthe iceberg” in terms of the need for engineers to receive formal training in biology.Nationally, the growth of biology-related job opportunities and biology-related ethical issues hascaught engineering curricula flat footed. Today’s engineering undergraduate is essentially thesame as the undergraduate engineering students
project-basedlearning incorporates a “big-picture” approach to enhancing science, math and technologyknowledge, critical thinking, and problem solving skills. Project-based learning requires studentsto understand a problem, with all of the fundamental science, societal, ethical and otherconstraints, prior to assessing and implementing a solution.The goal of Clarkson’s Project-Based Learning Partnership program is to provide training to K-12 Fellows who can then enhance the teaching of science and technology classes in area schooldistricts. Because of this primary goal, the K-12 student will have an increased interest andappreciation for these subjects and improved critical thinking skills. The following objectiveswere defined to achieve its goals
