and community partnerships developed.Program Development ContextThe ANGELS Program faculty-led curriculum development cohort met monthly during the Fall2022 and Spring 2023 semesters to develop the nutrition and food science curricula for the targetpopulation. The cohort completed activities needed to develop necessary aspects of the ANGELSProgram prior to the summer pilot in 2023. During the meetings, a weekly curricular program wasdeveloped, which included 23 summer activities lasting six weeks in June and July and included: a. Diverse agricultural activities in different sites include a University Teaching & Learning Garden and weekly visits to different nearby farms, and b. Nutrition lessons and health cooking
engineering students received no or little education on EDCM standardsand guidelines during their undergraduate and graduate courses. Participants stated that theyreceived basic departmental training or campuswide drills such as fire extinguisher drill(FG#04-D), fire evacuation and hurricane evacuation drill (FG#02-A), and active shootertraining (FG#01-C, FG#04-C). Graduate students (FG#01-B, FG#01-D), indicated that theyreceived basic lab safety training as a requirement for their research activities. Besides drills andtraining sessions, participants viewed safety seminar series in campus and TechAlert, acampuswide safety alert system as additional sources of EDCM information.No student, except one, took courses relevant to EDCM standards and

This confusion arises because load paths are not always intuitive and require asolid grasp of how structural elements work together.To address this, teaching methods could include physical models that allow students to see howforces travel through different components. Digital tools, such as 3D structural analysissoftware, can also provide an interactive way to visualize load flow, helping students makeconnections between theory and real-world systems.Structural Behaviour and DeformationStructural behaviour focuses on how a structure responds to loads, including how it deformsand distributes forces across its components. This understanding is vital for designingstructures that remain stable and safe under various conditions. One common

Vertically sliding plate H. Compressed air cylinderTesting MethodThe thermal interface material was inserted in between the two meter bars and then the top meterbar was pressed against the bottom meter bar. Any excess material was removed from thesurface. Pressure was applied and then insulation was wrapped around the meter bars. Power wassupplied to the heater which heats the top meter bar. Heat travels one-dimensionally to thebottom meter bar and in the meantime, the cooling plate keeps the bottom meter bar'stemperature constant. Data

a normal distribution. The concern was prompted again by anecdotal evidencethat, during the current 2024-2025 academic year, academic performance in many engineeringcourses has been bimodally distributed. It seems as if there is a group of students doing verywell, performing at the “A” and high “B” range, and a group of students performing poorly, inthe “D” and “F” range. Plotting the grades for some current courses confirms this. However, themath placement and SAT scores observed do not support this, but instead appear normallydistributed. To confirm this, both the skewness and kurtosis were determined for each year forthe cadets that graduated in CEE. The results are shown in Figure 6. MP means Math Placementin the figure
