. Page 14.1017.4The overall objective of the processing laboratory is to draw a close relationship betweenprocessing, structure and properties of materials. This relationship is fundamental to materialsscience and engineering and the lab is critical to planting this concept firmly in the minds andexperience of the undergraduate students. The brief introductory lectures, activities andassessment tools are designed to reinforce the theoretical knowledge, hands-on skills andcommunications skills necessary to practice materials science and engineering.The concept of the processing-structure-property relationship is fundamental to the study ofmaterials science and engineering. This relationship is the core of a larger “manufacturingstream” that

Challenges The course is intended to be taken immediately after the circuit theory course, so that thebasic concepts of DC circuit analysis in general and op amp circuits in particular are reasonablyfresh in the students’ minds. Because CPE 240 is not a pre-requisite for any mechanical orindustrial engineering courses besides ME lab, students who are behind will often chose CPE240 as the course to postpone. It has been observed that students who have not studied circuitsin the past year find the course very difficult.

While we bear these limitations in mind, somereflections on the assessment performed are given below.As a group, female students gained more from the concrete experience than their malecounterparts. Here, 64% of them solved the problem correctly compared with only 31% ofmales. This might suggest the physical model is helping these students improve their spatialvisualization skills, which in turn help them become better engineering problem-solvers.

Additionally, the needto provide accreditation evidence for such educational outcomes as communication skills and theability to learn independently further motivates the development of assignments that causestudents to demonstrate these abilities.The course design was, therefore, reconsidered with the following objectives in mind: • To provide "more space" in the course curriculum by reducing the amount of material explicitly discussed in class; • To challenge students to learn both computer tools and advanced applications independently; • To challenge students to express their ideas in writing, both for the

Given a resource of twelve full-time faculty, it is challenging to incorporateother civil engineering specialties such as materials or construction, especially in a manner thatdemonstrates practical application of the subjects.The objective of any engineering capstone design course should be to mesh the technicalknowledge of the discipline with an encompassing engineering problem that incorporates “realworld” issues and challenges. The primary role of a civil engineer is to serve the community; thus,it is essential that students understand the impact of engineering projects on, and the context ofengineering projects within, society.
