| Abstract Scope |
Engineering is inherently a creative and hands-on profession. Thus, the incorporation of kinesthetic and innovative programming in engineering education can and should be used to enable student understanding of core principles. In this regard, the introduction of a co-curricular blacksmithing program into the Metallurgical Engineering program in 2010 transformed the program in terms of overall student engagement and program enrollment. A new program that expands these co-curricular activities and integrates artistic aspects into welding, casting, glass blowing, and ceramics into the Metallurgical Engineering program will be discussed, and initial assessment results presented. |
