degrees, and the Bachelor degree inMultidisciplinary Technology. In order to advise a student graduating with an InterdisciplinaryDegree, the faculty must have a full, joint, or courtesy appointment with the Department ofMultidisciplinary Engineering.Step Three: Involve the appropriate voices to get a preliminary understanding of what the PhD, MS,and DEng degree plans would look like. If degrees are going to be grantable in the topic of engineering education, it is important toestablish what an acceptable degree plan would look like. There were numerous questions raisedabout the efficacy of the plan: ● What types of applicants would be admitted to the program? ● Would graduate students be required to have an undergraduate degree in

to interpret NASA satellite data, conduct missiondesign, and explore planetary research while working with scientists and engineers in their chosen area of work.This project addresses the national need to increase the number of high school students, particularly under-represented minorities, and those from under-served areas that will pursue STEM college degrees and the value ofconducting authentic research for high school students. However, during these unprecedented times, NASA TexasSpace Grant Consortium and The University of Texas Center for Space Research had to reimagine our summerinternships and youth collaborative programs to develop virtual and socially distant educational plans due to theCOVID-19 effects to “reimagine quality

; how to methodically break down a problem they have never seen before; and othersuch activities. The goal of these activities was to increase students’ study skills to help thembecome more effective not only for this course but their subsequent courses. We were not able toindividually assess the effectiveness of these activities versus the problem solving activities. Theassessment plan to be able to delineate these activities is planned to be the focus of a future work.Problem Solving ActivitiesThe faculty for the course develops a weekly packet of problems that the PLTL leader facilitates intheir sessions and guides the leaders through the material. The focus is on the process of solving theproblem and the conceptual understanding acquired

On top of this,they must also learn to live on their own -- doing laundry, making their own meals, managingtheir finances, possibly finding a job and working, etc. For many students, college is the first timethey’re expected to be so independent.In this category, we teach students how to identify near-term goals that are mastery based ratherthan performance based, as stated earlier, and devise a plan to manage their time by trackingvarious aspects of their daily lives.Category 3: Learning Strategies, Test Preparation, Post Exam AnalysisMaking the transition from high school to college-level coursework is more often than not verydifficult. As a result, even very high-achieving students struggle in their first
