project.Many of the ideas presented by the students had strong potential for future development due tobeing effective solutions to challenges in many vital fields. By producing the first prototypes,students had an opportunity to understand the engineering challenges they may have to overcometo have fully functional prototypes if they decided to take their idea further.Building the prototype is a crucial first step to convince investors, customers and peers tointroduce, design and iterate products before being released to the markets. Having severaliterations is vital to get customers’ feedback and analyze strengths and weaknesses of the design.The collaboration between the writing course and EEP enabled the students to have a quickintroduction into

Fellow of the IEEE and the OSA and currently the Vice President for Publications for the IEEE Photonics Society. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 Intensive Mentoring and Micro-Electronics Research for Students in Engineering (IMMERSE)AbstractThis paper describes an undergraduate research program called IMMERSE that has beenimplemented in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Brigham YoungUniversity. Approximately 50 students per year participate along with 12 faculty members. Theobjectives of the IMMERSE program are to prepare student to continue on to graduate schooland to enable students to publish their research in peer-reviewed venues

whichraises student‟s motivational level to stimulate thinking and go beyond facts and details (Brody 2009). Withrespect to active learning, there are many interrelated vocabulary, e.g. collaborative learning, cooperativelearning, problem-based learning (PBL). Collaborative learning and peer tutoring in the university environmentcan positively influence students to maintain a constant motivation and affection towards their study (Concetta2018). Collaborative learning and cooperative learning are different, for they have distinct historicaldevelopments and different philosophical roots (Bruffee,1995). The most common model of cooperativelearning found in the engineering literature is that of the book: „Active Learning: Cooperation in the

Anengaging social climate that fosters positive interactions among peers and faculty can help [29].Students’ sense of belonging, in turn, influences their motivation and achievement in STEM[30]. Individuals who develop a strong sense of belonging in a particular group have awarenessof implicit and explicit expectations or cultural-historical “repertoires of practice” that influencesocial interactions, social roles and social norms within that group [31]. Making connectionswithin social networks and accruing different forms of “social capital” [32] valued by groupmembers is accomplished through positive social interactions with existing group
