A university is uniquely qualified to address such Apps given the close proximity of experts innon-overlapping and distinct fields. However, the close proximity is offset by silos built

Food Engineering CoursesAbstractThe How People Learn (HPL) framework1, 2 was used to redesign two food engineering courses,Introduction to Engineering Design (EI-100) and Food Chemistry (IA-332), to further promotean interactive classroom while integrating multiple formative assessments by means of Tablet PCtechnologies3, 4. The HPL framework highlights a set of four overlapping lenses that can be usedto analyze any learning situation. In particular, it suggests that we ask about the degree to whichlearning environments are knowledge, learner, community, and assessment centered1, 2.

To achieve this goal activities encompass thethree areas that include recruitment, retention, and enrichment. Recruitment initiatives focus onstrategic partnerships, discipline-based events, student collaborations, summer research programsand visitation programs. Retention objectives are directed at scholars, tutoring, summer transitionprograms, and a faculty mentoring network.

In the fall semester of the2010 school year at Robert Morris University, SEMS began laying the groundwork for whatis now an alternative energy minor. This is an interdisciplinary minor that was developedthrough the combined efforts of engineering and science faculty. The curriculum was basedon the currently available expertise in environmental science and engineering. Theinitiative began as a collaborative effort and after multiple meetings and the consent of theuniversity registrar; the minor was offered to the students and has achieved a verypromising enrollment in the first semester of its offering.

By adding a sustainable energy emphasis to the EET degree, thedepartment prepares its students for the next generation of energy technology. By modifying itscourses to be delivered in a hybrid format (lectures online, labs in person), the program offers acompatible option for students who have jobs and families that require more flexible coursescheduling.
