Table 1 represents the enrollment data based on students’ profilesfrom fiscal year 2008 to 2013. Therefore, the students need to depend on the teachers andmentors for their success in their college career specially in Science, Technology, Engineering,and Mathematics (STEM) fields.Due to lack of proper education in the high school level, the incoming freshmen at TAMIU havefaced difficulty to deal with college level mathematics. Therefore, a significant class drop rate isfound in such lower division courses. Table 2 represents the student enrollment, successfulcompletion, and

Interdisciplinary Design Skills1 INTRODUCTIONAt the Sunapee State University engineering majors are similar to those at other schools around thenation. Most students choose a specific major in an area of interest to them and their future career plans.Within the engineering major, these students follow a specific track of courses with little variation in theform of electives taken during the third and fourth years. With the only common courses between majorsbeing rooted in math, physics, chemistry, writing and some social sciences, it is unsurprising to find thatgraduates from different programs develop and exhibit a completely different set of technical skills. Theissue in this model surfaces when those graduates leave the university to begin their

. IntroductionEquipping graduate students with the skills they need to succeed in an academic career is aparamount issue in engineering education. There has been much concern that while graduatestudents receive extensive support in developing themselves as research scholars, there are fewopportunities for them to receive training on how to teach.5,10,24 Further, the recommendation inthe Educating the Engineer of 2020 (p. 92) calls for creating learning environments “in whichstudents (1) were more actively engaged than taking notes, (2) focused on problems, designchallenges and artifacts in addition to concepts, and (3) often worked with other students tounderstand and complete assigned tasks.14” Since active learning teaching methods, like theones mentioned in

The latter is thekind generally called “hybrid,” and was a better fit to the actual situation studied.Faculty PerspectiveAt most colleges and universities promotions and tenure are a function of research, publications,teaching and service. In a study of tenure and merit pay, Kasten reports that "teaching is secondin importance to research" and that "adequate teaching is a necessary but not sufficient conditionfor tenure."1 Teaching is a key job requirement and indeed many faculty report that thisinteraction with students is one of the reasons they chose an academic career. However, as juniorfaculty often lament - the realities of supporting the many aspects of research and the strongrelationship between success in these areas and success

But it is that during the undergraduateyears that students will transform their various interests into a mindset that will guidethem throughout their career. Teaching the T-shape also brings natural contact with themessiness of the real world, and therefore exercises the capacity for complex thinking.

As the student progresses through their collegiate career andengages in experiences, they transcend through positions 2, 3, and 4; ideally graduating inposition 5 (or higher) where they have acquired the ability to perceive knowledge and values asrelative, contingent and contextual.4 Because the university is an educational environment, theintellectual development of the student from positions 1 or 2 to position 5 is an important part ofthe transformation of the student and the goal of the institution.Experiences play an important role in this transformation and sadly, not all experiences arepositive; potentially having a

In the case of ICT studentswhere data form higher courses is gathered, it can be seen that mastery in English increases asthey progress in their careers.

that students who are self-regulated, who keep their goals inmind, and know what they are doing and why they are doing it feel competent and do their workat a level that would enable them to do well in the class. This finding aligns well with empiricalstudies in cognitive science29. The implications of these findings suggest the importance ofmotivation, self-regulation, and self-efficacy in student learning process. While contentknowledge is important, keeping students motivated, self-regulated, and efficacious wouldcertainly help students reach their academic and career goals.Acknowledgements This project was funded by the National Science Foundation TUES Program through the Division of Undergraduate Education (Proposal 0837647).
