that should be followedwhen dealing with an IoT environment. The process includes the following phases [15]: 1. Initialization: In this phase, preparatory steps are taken before ever interacting with any device at the incident scene. During this phase, investigators should: (a) Understand how the IoT ecosystem works. (b) Identify potential data sources: Data can be stored at various locations within an IoT environment such as on IoT devices themselves in the form of internal memory or SD Cards, smartphones, or even in the cloud. Identifying where data is stored would allow investigators to determine what devices to acquire, what forensic tools would be needed, as well as what legal

from the university’s Institutional Board Review (IRB) was obtained for the procedures to be followed in the experiment. An online and classroom section of each subject was created. Students were enrolled in these sections based on their preference and course schedule for the semester ensuring approximately the same number of students in each of the two learning environments for each of the two courses. A brief survey was conducted in the two Thermodynamics sections to gain some insight into why students enrolled in the online or onsite section. Onsite students enrolled in the classroom section due to two main reasons: (a) many believed they would learn better in a traditional classroom environment (b) many were

engineering and artistic design processes and connections between the two disciplines.These goals reflect modifications to the goals associated with a “traditional” core studio artscourse (SA 224 Two-Dimensional Design), with specific changes made to reflect (i) 3-D ratherthan 2-D design and (ii) the integration of CAD and engineering into the course. To support theachievement of these goals, a specific set of measurable learning outcomes was created, three ofwhich were adapted from the core studio arts course (a, b, and d): By the end of the course, students will have demonstrated the ability to a) create original works of art using a combination of physical and computer technology; b) engage in critical thinking in class discussions

this paper, we present findings from two instantiations of a newly designed graduate course incivil/environmental engineering that integrates the arts and humanities. The objective of ourcourse is to develop engineers who are more reflective than traditionally trained engineers andare thereby better able to: (a) understand and address the complexities of modern real-worldchallenges, (b) make better ethical decisions, and (c) serve the public not only with technicalengineering skills but with mindfulness of and sensitivity to the complex social, cultural, andenvironmental contexts their work. Thus far, results have been encouraging from both oursurveys (reported here) and our analyses of student interviews and writing samples (reportedelsewhere

similar courses at Michigan Tech. Given the breadthof possible applications, this will be an iterative optimization with the Graduate School to identifywhich students to admit into the program. Per graduate school policy, students will be able to takegraduate courses at another university and apply to have credits transferred to the MSMechatronics program. Students will be able to transfer in up to 1/3 of the non-research creditsrequired. The Mechatronics program director will be in charge of approving any allowable credits.Students must earn a 'B' or better in the course they are requesting to transfer.The proposed MS degree will be very flexible, offering three options to complete graduationrequirements: a coursework with internship path; a

For engineersworking with ASGM communities, for example, in order to gain social trust they need to show a)competence, not only in an engineering domain but also in building and managing the socialrelations that make projects possible; b) caring, not only about the technologies but also aboutthe people impact them by them; c) predictability, showing that you are going accompany and beaccountable to ECD projects from start to finish and thereafter; and d) commitment to diversity ofperspectives and interpretations (e.g., various representations of the problem and possiblesolutions
