By the end of the four week period eachteam of students will have an idea for a service or product which they intend to work with.These ideas are worked on throughout the duration of the semester. The final project is a 10minute PowerPoint presentation where each group discusses their ideas and is asked anyquestions that the audience may have regarding their idea or work 3.Having interviewed with many local industrial leaders, the authors concluded that manyCEOs of larger firms are seeking new engineers that have entrepreneurship skills, because, intheir minds

It is true that most R1 PWIs value their research as means forfinancial gain and professional distinction. If research is highly revered at the graduate andinstitutional level, the strategic goals should also be implemented into the efforts made. Thisincludes engineering departments as well as centers and institutes that support departmentalresearch. Bearing this disconnect in mind, we classify Virginia Tech’s identity as communitymember-enhancing. We acknowledge that the university has developed an organizationalidentity that caters to and reflects the members of the local and state

Drawings are “smarter”,capable of changing data associated within them as they are changed. Drawings are now able togenerate schedules, soon they will be “writing” specifications. A CADD based structuralanalysis program can evaluate a selected area to be spanned, develop a material schedule, choosedetails and draw the framing diagram. If the changes that have occurred during this decade aredramatic, the next decade of architectural and engineering practice will be mind boggling.Those close to it will be better able to discuss it and prepare for its future.C.

played a significant rolein the quality assurance of engineering and technology education. Since 1946, ABET hasaccredited engineering technology programs at both two- and four-year institutions. Over thepast few years, ABET gained significant experience through implementation of outcomes-basedcriteria, Engineering Criteria 2000 (EC2000). 5 As EC2000 evolved, it became clear that the keyto a successful paradigm shift in engineering education rested with the faculty as providers of theeducational experience. With that in mind, ABET developed and delivered, with support fromNSF and industry, a series of highly successful regional faculty workshops for EC2000. Theseworkshops were designed to assist faculty in understanding the basics of continuous

In some instances, afairly comprehensive list containing a mixture of both customer needs and target specifications isprovided to the students as the starting point for their product design effort. Furthermore, in someoccasions, the information that is given the students at the beginning of the design project evenprescribes specific components that they must use by force in their product. Examples of thistype of situation can be found in “competition type” product development projects such as theSociety of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Mini Baja competition or the American Society ofMechanical Engineers (ASME) Human Powered Vehicle competition.

ability.In the second year of the program (2018), the project team introduced a second measure, theRevised Minnesota Paper Form Board Test (RMPFBT) [12]. First published in the 1930’s, thetest measures an individual's ability to manipulate two-dimensional objects in their mind and isoften used to assess spatial visualization skills in engineering students. Unlike the PSVT:R, theRMPFBT has two equivalent forms, which should reduce practice effects. In 2018 and 2021,form AA was given as the pre-test, and BB was given as the post-test. In 2019 and 2022, theforms were reversed (BB as the pre-test).

. The experience at the workshop made clear that differing backgrounds and vocabularies used by the various team members may lead to communication issues. For example, the engineering community has come to use terms like outcome and objective, as a result of ABET, in ways that are different from their use in the fields related to learning. Be sensitive to these differences and try to avoid wasting time arguing over semantics. The specific terms used are far less important than the meaning behind them.Guiding Questions for Evaluation PlansIn formulating an evaluation plan for an NSF-proposal on innovations in engineering education,it is important to keep in mind that there will be two major uses of evidence
