A study abroad course is one way to accomplish this goal. International experiencesgive our students an edge over other students and allow them to apply their knowledge to solveproblems outside of their comfort zone.

In the senior capstone course for electromechanical engineering technology (EMET)students at Penn State Altoona, a FDM system is used to create part concepts and test them for fitand function. The FDM ABS components are also often incorporated in completed designprojects, as functional and aesthetic elements. But the FDM has much broader
