Thus, our outcomes for students attending graduate school aresimilar to single-campus REUs in the same discipline.Challenges and opportunitiesOperating an REU Site across multiple campuses presents a number of logistical challenges, asothers have described

Week 8 is the lastconstruction and testing week. Some teams report their design starts functioning properly whileothers still struggle to get it to work. Week 9 is the presentation and demo day. Many reflect theyenjoy growing together as a team, have fun building the project and learn a lot.

analytical thinking pervades engineering design activities,the integration of the performance of components and sub-systems is vital to the success of allbut the simplest design problems. Consequently, the role of systems thinking is vital in solvingcomplex engineering design challenges while simultaneously considering environmental issues,safety, ethical implications, and economic factors [11]. Systems thinking permits students “tobreak out of the narrow definition of a problem and reflect on the relevant systems and how theyaffect, and in turn are affected by, new and improved technologies” [12]. By integrating systemsthinking experiences into early engineering design challenges, students may become moreexcited about engineering, while learning

under-represented minorities in the sample is too small to draw strongconclusions.When survey results were filtered according to students’ academic year of study, third yearstudents reported the most interest in the certificate program. 48% of third year students wereinterested in the certificate program. Fourth year students, on the other hand, reported the leastinterest across academic year. This is a likely a reflection of the fact that fourth-year studentswho have not already begun to complete the certificate will not have an opportunity to do sowithout delaying graduation. Although there was no difference regarding interest in the programfor males, females on average were less likely to be interested (23%). Additionally, first-generation

To make the process more dynamic, use of studentgenerated audio and videos are suggested as a way of engagement and reflection about the coursematerials [5]. This setup can be useful in some settings. However, perhaps less so for moreanalytical courses such as Business Analysis [6]. It may also be more in use for small classroomsettings [7]. Beyond the setting, some other issues with this approach entail students feelingburdened with the additional time spent on producing content for the discussion board andsustaining student interest to encourage participation.

. However, the shortcoming of themodel [1] is that uniform inflow is introduced at the inlet. If the uniform flow is considered, a largeregion needs to be modeled on the upstream side of the building to develop the logarithmic velocityprofile before the flow approaches the building. This would increase the computational time andsubsequently the computational cost. Hence, to optimize, a logarithmic velocity profile can beselected for the inlet, which saves both computational time and cost and at the same time resemblesa closer reflection to real-world atmospheric flows.1.6.

largeengineering class may involve students with these learning styles, and more, which requiresinnovative methods to teach them. Learning styles of engineering students and teaching styles ofengineering professors are often incompatible [36]. Most engineering classes encourage studentsto be passive. Students do not experiment actively or reflect which disables them to learneffectively. Active learning serves as an alternate to lectures [37]. The proof of what is beingtaught in class is in the fabrication and implementation of hands on experiences. BenjaminFranklin said, “Tell me, and I forget. Teach me, and I may remember. Involve me, and I learn.”Hands-on engineering learning happens naturally in industry settings. Internships and co-opscomplement the
