literature on quality in engineering education, accreditationis the predominant theme [4]–[8]. Engineering has been a pioneer in a discipline-specificaccreditation process, which serves as a model for other professional disciplines [6].The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) implemented in 1997 anew set of accreditation standards (Engineering Criteria 2000, EC2000), after which alearning outcomes assessment protocol became central for quality assurance models inundergraduate engineering programs [9] [10] [11]. Different international accreditationagencies for engineering programs have since agreed to define comparable learning outcomesthat shape the current quality standards in the discipline [12][13]. The latter has impacted

Basedupon this, we conclude that the communicative and technological skills required in the internshipaligned with our micro-credential goals.CONCLUSION AND LIMITATIONSThis program is in its infancy: we’ve only just now begun the second cohort, and the pandemicgreatly impacted our ability to secure students. Nonetheless, we think reporting out on thisproject is worthwhile for a number of reasons. First, data science is an increasingly importantpart of STEM education, but its locale within academic programs is inconsistent and notnecessarily within engineering programs’ footprints. We hope this program offers a blueprint forhow interdisciplinary and engineering programs might

The list of different toolsavailable in Ghidra are extensive and all serve different purposes that are beyond the need in thispaper. However, there are some really interesting aspects of Ghidra that might help illuminatewhy Ghidra is at the forefront of reverse engineering technology. This includes the graphicflowchart, function call graph, and the wide range of instruction info.Ghidra in itself has almost all of the aspects of the other reverse engineering tools stored intoone.

Prior research has demonstrated that a wide range of students with varying abilities and skill levelscan benefit from the flipped classroom format, but the benefits are not uniformly distributed among thegeneral STEM student population. For example, studies [2, 3] have suggested that medical studentsrespond most favorably—reporting heightened enjoyment, decreased boredom and a large gain inknowledge and skills—because the students naturally enjoy collaborative and project-based learning inhands-on environments. In maritime engineering, these same qualities are shared by students who seekU.S. Coast Guard Licensure (“license students”), qualities which

Marketing materials emphasized the promise of computing in the real world,steady job growth expected for next ten years, and a comparison of lifetime earnings of workerswith STEM and other majors.1. IntroductionThe world needs high-quality, trained majors in Science, Technology, Engineering andMathematics (STEM) with the ability to learn in a short period and stay current with advances intheir respective fields without accumulating massive debts to complete a degree. According tothe Bureau of Labor Statistics’ in the US [1], job opportunities due to growth and replacementsare high in the computing

(13) One practical reason is that ABET general engineeringcriteria target the social aspects of engineering education at several levels. In addition to criterion3(c), “an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs,” criterion 3(d)addresses the need to function on multidisciplinary teams, criterion 3(f) social and ethicalresponsibilities, criterion 3(g) communication skills, and criterion 3(h) addresses global andsocial impact. Constructivist theories of learning, irrespective of the subject matter, recognizethat learning is a social activity, and design-based courses, including project-based courses, areregarded by most as opportunities to improve students

Wemanaged to recruit around 60% of the overall graduating cohort from the faculty including civil,electrical, electronic, environmental, information technology, materials, mechanical,mechatronics, oil and gas, petroleum, resources and mining systems engineers. From the pilotstudy we found that at least two class appearances are needed in person to recruit a significantpercentage of graduating students. One group, software engineering, had no formal classes inthe last few months of their course so we resorted to e-mail, but without success. Theparticipation rate for electrical and electronic engineers is also less than the other disciplines forsimilar reasons. We also appeared at
