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

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

The E-field is created by conducting a 90ºpulse from each of the four pads on the device. This E-field is illustrated in figure 10 belowbased on Chengjun Huang’s research, and also cells trapped in the E-field can be seen in figure113. This precise 90º pulse is what allows the trapping of cells to be possible. If rotation occursit can be observed under a microscope. This is called electrorotation.

method, taken from the Russian tool system, not onlyoffers education but attributes as a philosophical key to all industrial education [3]. BothWoodward and Runkle were preparing engineers to enter the occupational demands that needhands on experience combined with intense theory.Charles Richards claimed that America presumes “our place as a nation practically at the time ofthe industrial revolution” [18]. One lacking feature, during this time, is that America had noartistic traditions except for those of other countries and the United States (U.S.) needed todevelop their own artistic tradition. The arts and crafts movement entered the U.S. by Englandin the early 1880’s and demonstrated in the schools of Philadelphia [19]. The arts and
