SI.Recruitment and Retention ResultsThe goal was to grow engineering to provide additional engineering graduates for theLowcountry, the state, and the nation. The first step was to improve our retention of the youngpeople arriving to begin the journey to become engineers. This step was critical to demonstrateto the administration that engineering was worthy of additional resources being used to growengineering at The Citadel. Table 2 and 3 presents the undergraduate student enrollment foreach of the engineering programs over a number of years. The initial growth in the eveningprograms in 2010 was a direct result of the growth of the aerospace industry in the area.

Thebenefits of a lab component in an introductory materials course have been observed directly atUSC, as the aerospace engineering version of the class (AME 231L: Mechanical Behavior ofMaterials) incorporates a materials testing lab. AME 231L is a smaller course, capped at 30students, and taught once per year. The small class size, and the availability of lab space andequipment, enable a hands-on learning experience for students.

The exam questions were adapted from Cengel and Boles’ Thermodynamics: An Engineer-ing Approach, 7th edition, textbook, widely used in the undergraduate aerospace and mechanicalengineering curricula. Problems were chosen by different levels of difficulty, based on the textbookclassification of basic, average, and advanced questions. A one-sample t-test was conducted on the students’ problem score to evaluate whether theirscore was significantly different from 5, the median of possible scores for a problem performance.For example, the sample mean of 8.4 on a question related to Laws of Thermodynamics (SD =2.00) was significantly different from 5, t(22) = 8.20, p = .000.

Forexample, a pilot study, to evaluate the usefulness of VR in education, was performed using fifty-nine students, in a summer day camp.
