ASEE鈥檚 126th Annual Conference Hosted by USF in Tampa

For the first time in the history of the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE), the organization held its annual conference in Tampa, with the University of South Florida serving as the event鈥檚 host university. The conference, attended by 3,500 engineers, featured more than 400 technical sessions and research presentations as well as more than 110 exhibitors stationed at the Tampa Convention Center.

鈥淭he conference was a great opportunity to showcase the academic strengths of the USF College of Engineering,鈥� said Engineering Dean Robert Bishop. 鈥淢any of our faculty and students presented engineering education research or conducted workshops and community service activities.鈥� 

Each of ASEE鈥檚 conferences focuses on contributing to the advancement of engineering education curriculum and pedagogies across all engineering disciplines, as well as providing educators, industry partners and stakeholders with networking opportunities. Exhibitors at this year鈥檚 conference included Google, NASA Exploration Systems, Boeing, Texas Instruments and a variety of national engineering societies and associations to name a few.

ASEE has more than 12,000 members, that include engineering deans, faculty, students, and government and industry reps. Its partners include 400 engineering colleges and affiliates, more than 50 corporations and a number of government agencies and professional associations.

Tampa Mayor Jane Castor spoke during the opening plenary and welcomed the educators to Tampa, saying she hopes it won鈥檛 take another 126 years for the conference to come back to the city.

The plenary included an award ceremony for students who were winners of ASEE鈥檚 first-ever video contest as part of its 125th anniversary last year. The competition challenged engineering students of all degree levels to create a 90-second video summarizing how the state of engineering education will have advanced in the next 25 years. USF engineering Ph.D. students Zachariah Beasley and Sadhu Moka won first prize, and you can watch their video below.

Between panels and presentations, guests could participate in a community service activity at the Florida Aquarium co-led by USF Civil and Environmental Engineering Professor Maya Trotz, take morning yoga on the Riverwalk or write on ASEE鈥檚 Living Wall 鈥� a physical comment wall featuring insights and reflections from attendees at each of ASEE鈥檚 annual conferences.

The college robotics model design competition featured teams of first-year and second-year engineering students who competed to see which of their robots they designed and built could best surpass a gauntlet of challenges.

ASEE Mechanics Division members could listen to a talk from awards banquet speaker and USF Mechanical Engineering Professor Autar Kaw, who shared how educators could gather top teaching techniques under a universal education framework for all students. Environmental Engineering Division members celebrated with an awards dinner, where USF Civil and Environmental Engineering postdocs Pablo Cornejo and Kevin Orner received the division鈥檚 2019 Best Paper Award.

The conference also featured more than 20 哔咔漫画 engineering faculty members who presented their education research. Below is the full list of their presentations at ASEE 2019:
