This course has CS1 as a prerequisite so weexpect students to have some programming experience. We chose to use python in this course, asit is easy-to-use across many topics. It is a bonus that this allows us to introduce a language that isotherwise not a standard part of our lower-division curriculum.Our experience working with undergraduate research students helped inform our decisions abouttechnologies and approaches for this course. Mentoring undergraduate research students as theylearned python, git, and SQL helped reinforce the need for these topics in our curriculum andprovided an opportunity to try various tutorials, IDEs, and

When asked why they were struggling, students expressed that they did not expect thevariety or complexity of the problems they were facing as engineers [10]. They felt unprepared[10] and that previous work experience was the only way to build the skills necessary to solvethese problems [13]. This struggle to transition into full-time work could be related to thedifferences in what knowledge, skills, or abilities are valued in an engineering curriculum overindustry [10], [12], [13]. To combat this struggle, academia can provide students opportunitiesfor work or work-like experiences throughout the curriculum.One such way to provide work experiences to
