The service-learningoption involved tutoring middle school and high school students in math, responding to fourwriting prompts or reflections, and a project. The project entailed the undergraduates creatingtheir own lesson and activity about probability which was offered to the entire tutoringcommunity. Each tutor first presented a brief lesson about a statistics topic such ascombinations, dice, cards, and other topics typical early on in a probability course.

components.Mechatronics is a newer branch of mechanical engineering that is a synergistic combination ofmechanical, electrical, electronics, computer science, control techniques, and informationsystems. Integrating mechatronics content in mechanical engineering curriculum has been achallenge since it has been viewed as a significant deviation from traditional courses. In the past,pedagogical approaches like semester-long, project-based classes, or linking mechatronics toother engineering disciplines, have been used to integrate mechatronics into the mechanicalengineering curriculum, with varying results. Furthermore, teaching an interdisciplinary class ofthis nature within a semester is a difficult pedagogical endeavor. To overcome these issues, thetopics and

He is particularly interested in examining strategies in which these employees can engage, such as disclosing or acknowledging their identities, to effectively remediate the workplace obstacles that they face. He has conducted various interrelated projects that examine how the effectiveness of expressing one’s identity is impacted by the extent to which stigmas are previously known, visible, or discovered by others over time. This is a novel area, given that disclosures have previously been conceptualized as a dichotomous, all-or-nothing phenomenon. This work has been

However, as projects become more complex and theuncertainty associated with technical aspects of them increases, the risks related to not only thoseprojects but also the environment have to be considered from a holistic or systemic perspective. Inthis dynamic environment, it is important for engineers and engineering managers to understandvarious aspects of risk management such as risk identification, risk tracking, risk impactassessment, risk prioritization and risk mitigation planning, implementation and progressmonitoring.In this paper, the authors review all the existing courses in their Engineering Management (EM)program and analyze the current offerings of
