University.teamwork and communications skills that were experienced were other factors that werebrought to lecture classes, during laboratory classes and when the students began theirsenior projects.ServiceOf the three requirements for tenure, service may be the least emphasized by someuniversities and colleges. Even so, a desirable amount of service is required to promotethe university or college by word of mouth. This helps in many instances to attract highschool graduates who may otherwise end up terminating their education. The benefits ofthe internship are classified into two areas. These are benefits to the industry and benefitsto the college.i) Benefits to the Industry During the four-week work period with NCP, contributions were made in

I contacted Lori Burgett-Jackson of EP toask for her input on the overall concept and specific topics. I also asked her to pursue the idea ofhaving experienced construction engineers help us conduct a laboratory experience that wouldrequire the students to immediately implement and integrate the chosen discreet lecture topics tocomplete a heavy highway bid.

In addition, several staff members at the nearby Oak Ridge National Laboratory, local area physicians and representatives of biomedical product manufacturers have expressed interest in collaborative research. A broadly-based BME interest group has been identified and a series of meetings coordinated by the BME program has been initiated to explore joint research in several focus areas in which there is substantial regional strength. § Funding agencies with programs encompassing the BME field have been targeted for grant solicitation. In particular, grant applications have been directed to the Whitaker Foundation which
the teaching process.Key words: teaching, manufacturing, simulation, animation.1 IntroductionTeaching manufacturing processes requires students to acquire a good understanding of theoriesrelated to strength of materials, heat transfer, materials structure, etc. Manufacturing processesare often very complex and difficult to explain; therefore, the implementation of numerouslaboratory sessions is required. Laboratory sessions are expensive, long to prepare and theirefficiency is sometimes affected by parasitic phenomena that make the interpretation oflaboratory results difficult. The use of films is also long and costly. In addition, films make itimpossible to separate the different phenomena that come into play in a manufacturing

Inthe first NanoCORE project, we focused on introducing nanoscale science and engineering intothe undergraduate curriculum through short teaching units, which we refer to as “nanomodules,”within existing courses. Students also had opportunities for more in-depth nanotechnologytraining by enrolling in technical electives and participating in undergraduate research. Theprogram has made a noteworthy impact on our undergraduate educational content andexperience.2 With the NanoCORE II project, we have extended the program by expandingstudent-learning opportunities to include additional hands-on and laboratory activities.

Daniel and Woody (2013) recently investigated students’ use andperformance on a variety of print and electronic formats in both laboratory and at homeconditions. They randomly assigned students to use a chapter of an introductory psychologytextbook in one of five formats: print textbook, printed text pages, printed manuscript inMicrosoft Word, electronic pdf, or electronic textbook.

The aim of the present poster is toemphasize the importance of applying lean manufacturing principles in a program for supportingthe needs of underrepresented students and identifying potential beneficial outcomes. Thehypothesis being tested was that providing students with the opportunity to engage in hands-ondiscovery-based activities, offering experience in laboratory environments, allowing them toconduct undergraduate research, and offering mentorship as part of a community would helpstudents develop a strong self-identity in STEM and strengthening their self-efficacy, and hasadded value to students of different background. The results show improvements in recruitment,retention, and inclusion of students from underrepresented groups
