set aside after one section of ENGR2100 (in the same classroom) during which a tutor will be available to help students with theirquestions about MATH 1110 and ENGR 1002. Kuh [9] has made an extensive study of high-impact practices in education, including collaborative assignments and projects. A primary goalof the current project is to increase student usage of tutoring resources while also encouragingearlier formation of effective study groups within the ENGR 2100 cohort.MethodFor the Fall 2019 semester, 83 incoming students were placed in the PREP cohort by virtue oftheir math placement scores or math transfer credits. Seven of these were transfer students, threewere classified as continuing students, and the balance were first-time in any

students perceived significantly more career barriers thanmen [46]. Women serving as role models might provide a more balanced view of the field andhelp in forming a realistic perception for students about engineering and careers in the field.Impact of Role Models and Perception of Female Students Studies were conducted to determine the impact of female role models’ visits to highschools and integrated science classes where female students were enrolled. The visits by femalerole models raised awareness about career options and possibilities for female students. At thatage, projecting themselves into a long-term career path may be very difficult for students. It maybe that female students need long term mentoring by female role models [47
