freshman year of their engineering curriculum. At the end of the freshman yearthe reported values of self-efficacy, the intrinsic value of learning engineering, and the utility valueof engineering all decreased from the initial values reported when students entered their freshmanyear. This research also showed that intrinsic interest in engineering and the utility value ofengineering were better predictors of career path than self-efficacy.1.2 Brief Description of AcES ProgramThe Academy of Engineering Success (AcES) program was established in 2012 to increaseretention of students who are traditionally underrepresented in engineering with the goal ofultimately diversifying the engineering workforce. The program has been funded through an NSFS-STEM

The Cornerstone Project for current courseiteration(s) involves the construction, optimization, and mechanical design of a windmill system;which includes the integration of a windmill, student-built AC motors, DC motors, circuitry, anddata acquisition systems. Cornerstone demonstration assessment is divided into two separatecomponents, one dedicated to author-developed design challenges integrated within the windmillsystem, and the other dedicated to student-programmed windmill parameter
