retentionrates. Then we will include descriptions of the newly designed first year engineering course, withdetailed information about our team-based projects. We will discuss both benefits and potentialpitfalls of this restructuring. Finally, retention data and trends will be discussed with someconclusions.IntroductionEngineering programs at universities and colleges across the country are faced with increasingdemands for high quality engineering graduates to meet the government’s goal of producing onemillion new STEM graduates by 2022 1. In support of this goal, the National ScienceFoundation has budgeted $135 million for 2016 to support the retention of STEM students 2 withadditional support coming at the state and university level.

five additional creative features.Outcome #4: A final outcome of the course, as claimed in the introduction, is that students aremore motivated and learn more effectively by flipping the traditional bottom-up order of coursesin the curriculum. Evaluation of this outcome is still a work in progress, but initial indicationsare positive. Such evaluation is harder because it entails evaluating different cohorts of studentsstudying under different curricular models. Unfortunately, data was not available for the periodprior to the introduction of the new course for EE students, but it is hoped to perform a morerigorous comparative assessment for CPE students who will take the new course for the first timein 2022. The outcome has two components, one
