The assignments are designed to motivate students to engage in higher-level thinking.Vignettes, i.e. short videos, describing each challenge and emphasizing the important role thatengineers play in solving these challenges, were recorded. In addition, detailed writtendescriptions of the Units were developed. Students use the vignettes and reference materials todecide which Elective Unit(s) they wish to study. They then have the opportunity to devote fourweeks of the semester, roughly one Carnegie unit of effort, to the exploration of the topic bymaking use of the cyberinfrastructure.The goals of the project are to increase the commitment of engineering students to the

were ableto see the challenges facing engineers in conducting simulation studies.IntroductionModeling and simulation play a crucial role in almost all disciplines in science and technology.In essence, modeling is the practice of developing a simplified representation of a system1.Simulation, on the other hand, is an imitation of the operation of the system over a period oftime2. Although until the 80’s simulation was not popular due to the cost and long processingtime of computing resources, today, simulation is considered an attractive and cost-effectivemethod to perform systems analysis1.Simulation may or may not be an appropriate tool, depending on the situation. For example,simulation is a useful tool to verify analytical solution, study

correlations such as those listed above provide motivation for the development ofinnovative activities that begin to integrate STEM and music for undergraduates. With suchactivities, questions arise about the role(s) that music might play in the achievement andretention of undergraduate STEM students, particularly URM students. It is hypothesized that ifminorities pursuing degrees in STEM participate in music and/or music-related activities, theirsuccess in STEM might increase. This paper describes a pilot program within a College ofEngineering that combines music and engineering, presents future work related to this modelalong with plans for engaging diverse students, and offers suggestions for replicating this modelon other campuses.Literature

the students internalize valuablelessons about the difficulty of finding work/life balance in college. When asked about theschedule in the impact surveys several students indicated lessons learned about balancingacademics, social life, and self such as: .... it was difficult being expected to do homework assignments when the activities ended at about 10 in the evening. Hour breaks were nice but flew by so quickly. Schedule was very packed and busy, good practice.... Food inclusion was a nice habit to adjust to. The long day with math, [Library and IT], writing and another session of math (or physics) was tightly scheduled and tiring. I see it beneficial for students whose schedules could have a day(s
information without visual reinforcement.I would recommend using student projects to develop video content to eventually “flip” a course(or at least move some of the lecture to before the class period). The approach presented here isa work in progress, but the author hopes this information is useful and inspiring for other newengineering educators.References 1. Swartz, Brian.

Initially the course was designed in accordancewith the general profile of mechatronic engineers and their work environment as well as theparticularities of the region. On this basis, axes of knowledge were created and the necessaryskills defined, while taking into account the government‟s curricular guidelines.The formal disciplines provided the knowledge base and some practice, but were
