In Week 3, groups make a presentation about their project’sresearch question and goals to the rest of the groups, citing major milestones and an anticipatedschedule. The project culminates in a five-page research paper, a poster presentation, and atechnology demo. Students present their posters and demos at a campus-wide REU ResearchSymposium.

Then, thethird and fourth years would include approximately one year of courses in a traditionalengineering discipline, and one year of core courses that focused more on the business andtechnology management. Such courses included marketing, management, and accounting. Thesecourses were taught by faculty with at least one engineering degree. This approach was used toensure EM students appreciated the link between engineering and business. Students were alsorequired to take six hours of upper-level Engineering Management electives. Graduates of theprogram received a B. S. in Engineering Management with a preference in a traditionalengineering field, (for example B.S. in Engineering

In order to communicate thisconcept we have decided to allow students tocontrollably “zoom in” on objects they are familiarwith, such as a compact disc or human hair. As thescale decreases, they will become aware of the detailsthey can feel and, for the sighted students, see in thetopology, while appreciating the fact that it is the sameobject.For the actual implementation of the haptic feedback onthe Novint Falcon, both the macro- and nanosurfacetopologies are simulated using an analog of an AFM – a Figure 7.
