2recent research argues that since the effects of some pollutants from the industrial era haveeffects that can last hundreds if not thousands of years, the number should be significantly larger(Boyle & Coates, 2005; Tonn, 2004). If this approach is taken, engineers must go beyond theproduct life cycle towards the “project” life cycle which also includes the process (e.g. thefactory and distribution techniques). The paradigm of the design process then must shift toexamine not only the original system, but also change of that and other systems over time (Boyle& Coates, 2005).While many categories could exist, sustainability is generally examined within the context ofenvironmental, economic and social realms.

A secondary goal is to create a faculty exchangeprogram involving both teaching and collaborative research opportunities. In order toaccomplish these goals several objectives have been completed and still others are in the works.These include the development of faculty-led student exchanges, semester / yearlong studentexchanges, collaborative research projects for both students and faculty and faculty exchanges.The final goal is to

engineering classroom. These exercises can rangefrom a simple poll or discussion in class to the extreme of completely flipping a classroom in whichstudents learn content outside the class and use class time to work on problem sets, active learningexercises, projects, or similar activities. The latter extreme hopes to allow students to work onproblems in a more controlled and collaborative environment than doing problem sets at home ontheir own. Flipped classrooms have shown positive results in some engineering courses, but thisis not universal for all implementations in engineering courses with some studies showing mixedresults in learning outcomes [4].At Villanova University, all mechanical engineering students are required to take a

His research expertise and interests lie in the controlled synthesis of CNTs for thermal and biological applications. While at Purdue, he was actively involved in research sponsored by DARPA (Defense Ad- vanced Research Projects Agency) in the development of carbon nanotube (CNT) enhanced wicks for vapor chambers (Thermal Ground Plane Program), and in enhancement of thermal interfaces using CNTs (Nano Thermal Interface Program).

research that may result in faculty not achieving promotion & tenure (PnT). Regardless of the rules laid out in policy documents, if there is a negative institutional stereotype about engineering education research, it will come through in the peer- reviewed approval committees. This is of special concern for pre-tenure faculty that may see EER as an impediment to achieving tenure. • Lack of Graduate Students. For an institution that does not have a Ph.D. program in engineering education, there are not engineering graduate students that are in a position to work on research projects. This has two impacts. The first is that this puts additional onus on the faculty to do the day-to-day research

Faculty see students useexcessive decimal digits, react with frustration to rough order-of-magnitude estimation or whenpresented with imperfect models. Faculty state that novice students seem to expect problemsolving to not involve any kind of uncertainty, experimentation, or failure.These results shed more light on the alignment of the current standard mathematics curriculumwith the needs of the engineering students and faculty.

One engagement protocol that mixesbest practices from Adams’ work and is similar to the liberative ones employed by Riley is usedby one faculty member who requires all students to stand while discussing an element of designfrom the project, and the next speaker must amplify the previous student’s statement in terms ofhis own.
