Essentially, there may be little to no incentives for academic departments to engage intransdisciplinary programming within the existing structures of higher education. However, some insightsand practices have emerged from this research project that can be useful in moving towardtransdisciplinary learning around topics of convergence. Accordingly, the paper will highlight features ofan educational model that spans disciplines along with the workarounds to current institutional barriers.This paper will also provide lessons learned related to 1) the potential pitfalls with educationalprogramming becoming “un

Furthermore, strong cybersecurity is essential for ensuringuninterrupted work of the critical infrastructure and the national security. However, there is ahuge unmet need for cybersecurity experts in the U.S. According to cyberseek.org, nationwidethere are over 755,700 open positions for different cybersecurity career pathways, which is asignificant increase from 597,700 open positions one year ago [1].

This is a void that artificial intelligence can fill. More specifically, a properlytrained neural network can perform a continuous analysis on high-resolution core images fromtop to bottom. It is also important to note that geologic interpretation tied to core analysis canintroduce human error and subjectivity. Here too, a properly trained neural network can generateresults with extreme levels of accuracy and precision. One core analysis expert believes that coreanalysis done manually is flawed about 70% of the time [1]. This flawed analysis can result fromlack of experience and or a lack of

Introduction The Australian energy sector is expected to make substantial changes to the way itincorporates renewable energy into existing power systems as part of global efforts to reducecarbon emissions outlined by the Paris Agreement [1]. To meet these commitments, Australiahas pledged to reduce emissions by 43% below 2005 levels by 2030. Achieving these targetsrequires a new set of skills to build, test, and maintain upgraded electrical infrastructure andtechnology that revolves around renewables.

Adoption Among FacultyDuring the current 4th industrial revolution, technology is changing at an ever increasing pace[1]. Thus, it is essential that engineering educators continually adopt and teach new engineeringtechnologies to both keep the technologies used in engineering coursework relevant for graduatesentering industry, as well as to model lifelong learning for their students. In fact, ABET requiresfaculty to teach relevant tools for modern engineering, as well as equip students with life-longlearning skills [2]. However, the time restrictions on faculty are well documented [3 - 4] and canmake learning new technologies challenging.This poster summarizes the preliminary results of an NSF project funded through the Directoratefor Engineering
