Science, Technology,Engineering, and Math (STEM) courses. Researchers have noted that some course instructorssimply lecture but rarely help students make the connection between teaching and learning.4-5The SI program is based on group sessions led twice a week for one hour by a peer leader whohas already completed the course with a grade of an A or B. These group sessions includecollaborative learning techniques. SI leaders were assigned to target courses based on priorsemester DFW rates and professor willingness to have an SI leader. Whenever possible, the SIleader sits in class and gains firsthand knowledge of the areas in which students are struggling.In order to examine the effectiveness of the SI sessions, we examined the number of SI

promoted the assistance of veterans for attainingcareers in engineering so they can participate to the Science, Technology, Engineering, andMathematics (STEM) workforce for the benefit of society [5]. Most student veterans aresupported by the Post-9/11 GI Bill for collegiate education as they work to help them transitioninto civilian careers. This is a large college student demographic in the United States receivingsubstantial educational assistance benefits from the federal government. In 2015, 790,507veterans received almost $12 billion for their education [6]. We focus on veterans enrolled inonline master’s degree engineering programs. Traditional “brick and mortar” engineeringschools are more likely to offer online master’s engineering

Additionally, university programadministrators must maintain regional accreditation standards and often professionalaccreditation standards such as those promulgated by the Accreditation Board for Engineeringand Technology (ABET) for engineering and technology.This paper examines the potential to create a waiver of liberal studies requirements for militarystudents and veterans with particular emphasis on credit earned at the senior noncommissionedofficer (NCO) rank levels.
