The faculty administrators for these sites are often responsible for recruitingparticipants, providing a high-quality research experience, and facilitating workshops to helpparticipants develop professional and research skills. When administering a REU program site, itmay also be suggested, or even required, that a plan be developed to evaluate the effectiveness ofthe site’s programming. Past and present REU administrators have used variety of routes fordeveloping their evaluation plans, including: using published engineering education articles todevelop an evaluation plan or integrating a social-science researcher who can advise onevaluation.

The recent Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) andMechanical Engineering (ME) curricula lacked inclusion of these elements within theirprograms. Close scrutiny to the need of local industry from engineering graduates hasemphasized the motivation to develop these materials into the engineering curricula.Within the ECE curriculum, a new senior course was developed to cover MEMS/NEMSdevices as well as wearable and IoT devices with Bluetooth and wireless features. TheMEMS/NEMS module of the new course integrates software CAD tools and hardwareimplementations. It is a project-based course where

In fact, we need a change of paradigm from a teacher-centered to a student-centered pedagogy (4).StructureThe road to success for this project requires everyone’s contribution and involvement.
