client, the transition to the client, post transition status, and any lessonslearned. A survey of client experiences with Capstone projects is summarized in Table 1.BackgroundThe development of mobile apps in Capstone projects using student teams has been studied byseveral researchers. Pinchot (2018) had focused on the incorporation of user-centered design,communications skills and teamwork for mobile development as a project model. It was foundthat focusing on these areas helped the teams complete the project with a working mobile app.User-centered design was included as a requirement. Using a pair programming model helped indevelopment with the emphasis of having each team member contribute as equally as possible tothe work. The split in work

freshmanclasses [17] all the way through senior design (capstone) projects [18, 19]. The autonomousvehicles have a variety of different scales and designs, including solar-powered vehicles [20],wireless vehicles, and a vehicle with a focus on infrared sensing [21]. Because of spaceconsiderations, we do not provide a summary or review of the technologies underlyingautonomous vehicles, as they are available in a number of publications on the subject [22–25].II AutoDrive at Kettering UniversityParticipation in SAE programs is a large part of the education of many students at KetteringUniversity. The institution has traditionally supported four SAE Collegiate Teams (“Teams”),including SAE Aero Design, Baja SAE, Clean Snowmobile Challenge and Formula SAE

the STEM workforce.Next, we will briefly outline the future success stories of the high school, undergraduate, andgraduate scholars who participated in this program. These success stories show the potential forthese programs to generate new streams of students and researchers for universities, which caneventually grow and diversify the STEM workforce.• Two patent applications. Two journal publications• One Barry Goldwater Recipient, Two Barry Goldwater Honorable Mentions• One DoD SMART Scholarship Recipient• One National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow• Eighteen students continued these projects in Senior Capstone.• Seven Honors Theses at the University of Mississippi.• Two successful grants with NASA and C Spire

Students’ Interest in Their CoursesIn addition to the potential benefits in terms of student engagement, there is also a correspondingbenefit for the department’s industry partners. The department’s current industry engagementefforts focus on design project sponsorship, large-scale events, and opportunities for one-on-onementorship. Those efforts provide a broad range of opportunities for industry to engage with thedepartment, while also providing some insight into the kinds of opportunities that could bevaluable and that are not included in the current model. The push to increase the use ofindustry-based examples across the curriculum is unique in that it focuses specifically on classesthat haven’t traditionally been highly industry-based, and in

ready for the workshop, but only a staggering 11% of business leaders feel that graduateshave the competencies and skills necessary to succeed in the workplace [1]. This challenge does notescape engineering programs, and many are developing strategic programs to take on this industryreadiness gap. Some engineering programs have launched industry-sponsored senior capstone programswhile others bring industry influence into the classroom as guests, adjunct faculty or through industry-influenced curriculum or professional socialization [2-5]. Other engineering programs have sought toclose this industry readiness gap with mentorship programs [6-7].Mentorship is a vital component to career advancement.
