Active participation in research is an important part of experientiallearning, which can help to prepare students for careers in a variety of settings includingindustrial R&D departments, academia, and government research labs. Undergraduate students’research experiences may be limited in their value, however, by the learning curve students faceas they begin to conduct research. The quality of their training may also be limited, with somereceiving excellent training and orientation from a strong research lab or faculty mentor, andothers receiving little guidance. In order to better prepare undergraduate students for research,faculty members in different departments at Kettering University

The Five-Axis ROBODRILL has high-speed tool changer thatcan carry 21 tools and offers the best reliability in its class. With a tool change time of 0.7seconds and a turret capable of handling tools weighing 4 kg, the new advanced version is boththe fastest and strongest vertical machining center on the market. Using intelligent cuttingstrategies, ROBODRILL achieves the same results as more powerful machines in less time,regardless of whether the application involves high-speed machining, mold making or 5-axismachining. This machine serves as the best

The students select their mentors from apool of industry professionals that we curated from the SMSE industry advisory board, theircolleagues, and select SMSE alumni.

In addition to standard laband project reports, during the senior year, students are required to take the mechanicalengineering seminar class and write a half-page summary discussing what they gained fromlistening to presenters from industry. Each week a presenter shares his or her professionalexperience with the seminar class and talks about career paths, ethics, continuing education, andthe “dos” and “don’ts” of a professional. The summaries are read for both content and proper useof grammar and sentence structure, and points are deducted for improper use of grammar andmisspelled words.

This involves giving the students ownership of their lab experience.The concept of student ownership has many facets, including letting students plan educationalobjectives and activities, select educational materials, teach other students, and reflect criticallyon their expectations and experiences (Fletcher 2008).

Significant evidence of this can be found in a longitudinal study that revealed thathigh school students identified as high spatial performers went on to attain higher educationalachievements and career proficiency [10], [11].
