: Undergraduate Academic Policy Trends across Institutions over the Last Thirty Years INTRODUCTIONMIDFIELD (Multiple Institution Database for Investigating Engineering LongitudinalDevelopment) is a database, made up of multiple higher education institutions across the U.S.,which is intended to allow for the easy comparison of the institutions. The MIDFIELD databaseincludes data from the late 1980’s until present, which encompasses the SAT/ACT scores,students’ GPA and major for each semester, students’ attained degrees, year graduated, and otherpieces of data. However, in order to better understand the differences across institutions, anunderstanding of academic policies should be conducted
State University Dr. Deborah Grzybowski is a Professor of Practice in the Department of Engineering Education at The Ohio State University. She received her Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering and her B.S. and M.S. in Chem- ical Engineering from The Ohio State University. Her research focuses on making engineering accessible to all students, including students with visual impairments, through the use of multiple pedagogy models including VR, art-infused curriculum, and 3D printed models.Dr. Christopher Douglas Porter, The Ohio State University Department of Physics Dr. Porter obtained undergraduate physics degrees from Universitaet Leipzig, and from The Ohio State University. He completed his M. S. and Ph. D. in physics

industry. Dominant first year engineering programs create team-based fundamental engineering courses to develop students’ ability to work in a team. Thenumber of foreign students studying at American higher educational institutions is consistentlyincreasing and they possess unique cultures influencing the study and experience of domesticstudents. In this study, we focus on teamwork and peer assessment behaviors of multi-culturalteams as compared to domestic [U.S.] teams in a large Midwestern first year engineeringprogram. Our research question is: do teams containing one or more international student(s)have, on average, different peer rating behaviors from teams containing only domestic students?We find significant peer evaluation differences in

Students work in 4-6 member heterogeneous groupsproviding a comfortable environment to ask questions and learn. SCLC further strengthens thelearning community built in the SSBP.Monthly Socials: To strengthen the learning community, 3 to 4 monthly socials throughout eachsemester will allow students to interact with invited professionals and upperclassmen in aninformal setting. Each monthly social will revolve around a theme and speaker(s), for example,reducing stress during midterms and finals, time management, setting high expectations,undergraduate research
