Students and professors are both an integral part ofthis modular structure, with students involved at various levels, including management. Eachcomponent is treated as an individual hierarchy with its own set of goals, yet responsible to theoverall management structure and research objectives. The challenges that are naturally inherentto using only undergraduate students for research are addressed in this paper via a description ofboth the team structure and multi-level student participation. Dissemination of results is a criticalportion of the research process, with requirements for external publication an integral part of theobjectives set for the team

main reasons for this is to helpyoung minds develop an interest and desire to learn math and science early in their education. Inthis way, they are better positioned to consider and pursue STEM related careers after highschool. To this end, agencies such as the National Science Foundation and others havedeveloped funding programs focused on the development of methodologies and curricula thatcan support the introduction of STEM in the current K-12 educational system. As a result,public educational systems and institutions of higher learning are responding. As an example,the State of Texas has developed a set of STEM academies (T-STEM) devoted to introducingSTEM as part of the secondary curriculum and increase students’ college readiness for

of problem solving in the workplace. Forinstance the SCANS Report “What Work Requires of Schools” [1], states that problem solving isan essential thinking skill for workers. Engineers, physicians, managers, etc. are hired, retained,and rewarded for their abilities to solve workplace problems. For engineering education, thismeans a challenge to integrate workplace real-world problems into the curriculum and stayingabreast with new challenges and changing roles of engineers in the workplace.If education programs are to fulfill these challenges, a better understanding of the nature ofworkplace problem solving is necessary. This holds especially true for instructional andeducational strategies that heavily utilize problems, like ‘problem-based

As the method and computer technology matured, FEM was introduced at theundergraduate level in engineering and engineering technology programs, even in some two-yearengineering technology programs. Today, FEM is primarily offered as an elective undergraduatecourse in mechanical, civil, and aeronautical engineering programs. Fatigue analysis that in the past was carried out by hand and/or in-house computer programsis now done using commercial FEM software.

Doing CM well canhave a significant influence on reducing costs and improving productivity.Although professional development programs are available to provide corporate managers withan understanding of CM, there is little coverage of CM in typical engineering and managementcourses in universities. This may partially be the result of limited CM educational resources forfaculty use. For that reason, we have prepared a CM Overview Module and Instructor’s Guideto be used in a one-to-two week segment of engineering or management courses. The
