introduction of the FYE has provided us the opportunity to re-envision our curriculumand be more intentional with course design during the sophomore through senior years. Forexample, we can introduce more scaffolding within the curriculum to prepare students forcoursework and topics they will encounter later in the program. Skills learned in the first yearwill be incorporated into second year courses and so on, so students can continue to grow theirengineering toolkit. However, reorganization of our existing curriculum has also presentedchallenges. We have critically examined all of our course offerings and made changes wherenecessary to continue preparing our students well for an engineering career after graduation.Several other disadvantages have
