The authors suspected that these transfer students might just be the tip of a large icebergof students who sought and could benefit strongly from a “supportive hand.” 1 There were noprograms at that time specifically for new transfer students in ENGR; the only option availableto learn about life at a large school for these students was to join freshmen students in an ASU101 introductory class. Transfer students averaging age 25 are not particularly enthralled to be inclass with 18 year olds who are very interested in what happened in the dorm last night. The firstauthor and director of the NSF STEM for upper division students then wrote a second successfulproposal (#0324212) to NSF to support upper division transfer students in an S

layers and separate them from the platform. Figure 1 shows an example ofcatastrophic failure where parts of the extruder were engulfed in plastic. In this case, the 3Dprinter was left unattended overnight since the time predicted by the 3D-printing program tocreate a part was about 9 hours. As the first few layers were deposited, they separated from theprinting platform and adhered to the printing nozzle of the extruder. Then, the nozzle and someportions of the extruder were encapsulated as more plastic was extruded. To remove the plasticbuild-up, a student used a heat gun to re-melt the plastic and release the extruder. However, inthe process, a plastic extruder holder was partially melted as well and had to be replaced. Figure1a shows the

The first goalis to graduate the student. The second goal is that they will graduate in good stead with anexcellent set of experiences in addition to the classroom, including internships and researchpositions. A third goal is that the student will go right on to graduate school full-time aftergraduation and earn an engineering or computer science Master’s or Ph.D. degree.

As the prime directive of ethics, all professionals should refrain from actions thatresult in harm of any type: physical, psychological, financial, legal. Initially associated withmedicine and erroneously ascribed to the Hippocratic Oath, primum non nocere came intowidespread usage in the early 20th century18 and has served as a guide for professional practicein any area related to the public good. Engineering codes capture this concept in FundamentalCanon #1, and public safety is at the forefront of a designer’s mind, especially those workingwith structures and consumer products.It is important to note

And solvingthe riddle of human origins appears to be the key to answering many of our biggest questions.Near the middle of the twentieth century, British scientist and novelist C. P.

He wrote that the intellectual life of all of western society is split intothese two cultures (science and the humanities) that have a terrible time trying to communicatewith each other, and that this is a major hindrance in solving the world’s problems.1 The tragedyhere is that humanity needs

The in-the-moment response to the perfectly rehearsed narrative articulated by engineering and business students, such as John, can serve to help them identify moments when they lack empathy.
