. Finally, the experimental results were comparedto results from the Seider-Tate equation.Similarly, turbulent flow heat transfer coefficients were measured for the flow of airthrough an 18 in x ¼ in i.d. copper tube as the air was heated by immersing the tube intoan agitated water bath at about 140°F. As in the laminar flow experiments, thetemperature of the exiting air was recorded as a function of flow rate and was used todetemine the duty and the experimental heat transfer coefficient. Finally, theexperimental results were compared to results from the Dittus-Boelter equation. Proceedings of the 2005 ASEE Gulf-Southwest Annual Conference Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi

Minorities in Engineering

AbstractNumerous national policy papers and studies have reported that the continued lack of recruitmentand retention in STEM fields among historically under-represented populations has a serious impacton the economic well being of the United States and its citizenry. Much attention has been paid tothe attitudes and interests of minority students regarding their desire to pursue postsecondaryeducation in STEM as well as their persistence in these efforts. In addition, various efforts havebeen made to increase the recruitment and retention of these populations through outreachprograms, mentoring, and summer activities. Less attention has been paid to the pervasive attitudesand actions of their peers within the STEM fields and throughout the STEM pipeline

Education innovations are required to empower students with the skills and technologies for large dataset analysis. Over the last few years, there is a high demand for new programs in data science and analytics (DSA). We has performed a systematic study of the existing DSA programs in the US by checking the detailed information about the degree programs, the program competencies, the curriculum designs, the expected learning outcomes, program sizes, professional careers, and other related information.
