preparation for this accreditation review, the Bioengineeringgraduate program undertook to develop program objectives and outcomes to examine studentlearning at the graduate level. At the graduate level, thesis and dissertation research is asignificant component of the educational process. As such, this paper will focus on developingobjectives and outcomes related to research education and developing measures of studentlearning in research education, particularly at the doctoral level.While undergraduate programs in engineering are accredited via the Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology (ABET), ABET does not accredit doctoral degree programs.

presented by LDM can befound in the necessity to conduct post-processing of the obtained 3D objects and in the adequatecontrol of the ink viscosity [3], [5]. FDM can be used with minimal post-processing and offers theadded advantage of higher resolution, thus the use of FDM in this study [5]. Moreover, at IndianaUniversity – Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI), several undergraduate engineering capstoneprojects have involved the use of 3D printing for rapid prototyping and small-scale production ofcomplex objects. This study can provide a framework to improve student adoption of additivemanufacturing as an efficient design project technology.2.

simple enough for students to understand, while at the same time demonstrating the dispersion process’ “big picture.” Students in an introductory air pollution course not only effectively employed the application to visualize the impact of changing plume variables, but also applied it to an optimization scenario that required repeated calculations of the downwind effects of various plumes to meet given concentration guidelines. After using this plume modeling application in the course, students had a better understanding of plume behavior, a better understanding of the value of information technology in solving engineering problems, and a greater interest in applications of atmospheric

previous workwhich counterintuitively found that crudely-built demonstrations devices tend to confer greaterlearning retention than similar professionally built devices [12]. Specifically, we sought todetermine how preference for crudely vs. professionally-built demonstrations changed withacademic maturity. The current study employed a larger population of students pursuing anundergraduate degree in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) in their freshmanor sophomore years. The results of the investigation revealed that both year groups experiencedgreater learning retention when the low-cost, homemade demonstrator was employed whencompared to the professionally manufactured demonstrator (p = 0.04).

Technology has helped the education in a number of ways, but also has decreased the “appetite” for motivation in some areas including the “feel for urgency”. For example, when I started my teaching career students frequently visited my office to express their concerns about not performing well and
