heavily towards topicstraditionally taught in fluid mechanics. Indeed, the course syllabus lists the F-22 as the casestudy for 23 of the course’s 40 lessons. However, this block also contains severalthermodynamic based topics, including gas turbine engines and aircraft propulsion systems.Additionally, dimensional analysis and modeling are addressed within this case study, which isthe logical place to put them based on their relevance to the wind tunnel testing of models. In contrast to the F-22’s command of 23 lessons in ME312, the Corvette case study isused for only 13 lessons. However, many of these topics are discussed in depth during thecourse of 2-3 lessons, and rely heavily upon the Conservation of Energy principles taught inME311
algebra-based physics of mechanics course is followed by a calculus-based staticsand dynamics course(s), then the topics of concern clearly are covered on a calculus basis. Asimilar argument can be made for electromagnetics. In fact, the conceptual basis ofelectromagnetics topics that is typically covered in the context of capacitor and inductoroperation in electric circuits courses has been the prerequisite for three calculus-basedelectromagnetics/transmission lines courses in the Electrical Engineering Technology program atMSOE for several years. The authors contend that the sciences must be eventually covered on acalculus basis, whether in calculus-based physics courses or subsequently in advanced courses,for the adequate preparation of
experience with an interdisciplinary focus or takecourse(s) relating to a grand challenge theme (sustainability, security, health, or joy of living)[17].c. EntrepreneurshipGrand challenges scholars are capable of translating inventions and innovations into marketventures and future global solutions to benefit the public interest and private citizens. Thescholars must take advantage of approved entrepreneurial experiences or internships withsignificant entrepreneurial focus to complete this competency. Undergraduate researchexperiences with an entrepreneurial focus or course(s) focusing on entrepreneurship also satisfythis requirement. Scholars may choose to focus their research on this competency and presenttheir entrepreneurship research findings

(also known as Short-circuiting or Early-exit), where a portion of a time-consuming calculation can beobviated under some conditions. Briefly, the strategy is to use a metric(s) that is fast to compute to processsamples to determine if they are very similar or very dissimilar and only calculate the more expensivemetric(s) when more careful arbitration is required. Figure 8 plots the distribution of sim structural andsim ocr metrics for all samples with the real positive and negative labels. For the majority of samples witha real-negative label, the sim structural values are higher than 0.9. Therefore, for a unlabeled sample, if ithas a sim structural that is higher than a threshold, then the early dropping model prediction is that it isnot a

Students practiced and exercised engineering design processduring the second (spring) semester with an engineering entrepreneurial mindset through variousclass activities and design projects with selected topics. This also exposed the students to anengineer’s role in a society and the related responsibilities along with creation of new innovativeideas.Erdil et al. [10,11] studied a curricular model to develop an entrepreneurial mindset inengineering students which emanated from the Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network(KEEN)’s 3C’s, of curiosity, connections and creating value.

They normally try “guess”values by on-line tuning, but they are also requested to derive parameters from the previouslydeveloped model (adapted from the previous group) once incorporated in the closed loop,including the Simulink modules for the final element (control valve, variable speed pump) andthe controller (Figure 5)Figure 5. The open-loop model residing in the s-function module is integrated in Simulink withthe final element module (including saturation blocks for physical limits) and the PID controller module for the closed-loop.Students are also invited to use the previously developed transfer function
