“significanteducational benefits” of HIPS have been shown to extend to “those from demographic groupshistorically underserved by higher education” [18], and these are the groups institutions will behoping to recruit and retain as we hit the enrollment cliff.Information and research, like that shown in the previous paragraphs, are a small sampling of thedata that inspired CSU to start the SURE program in the spring of 2019. Since that time, theSURE program has yielded stellar results, demonstrating increased retentions rates of over 7% inthe WSCOE and increased retention rates of almost 5% at CSU when compared to a WSCOEreference group. In addition, students participating in the SURE program are better able to seethemselves as an engineer, more likely to reach

In 2019, a new semester-long course projectwas developed for our university’s first-year engineering program that aimed to introducestudents to the engineering design process (EDP) in an engaging and relevant way. Students inour small undergraduate-only engineering program earn Bachelors of Science degrees inEngineering, with a specialization in civil, computer, electrical, environmental, mechanical, or acustom area. Offshore wind energy was chosen as the project topic both for its relevance to theuniversity’s coastal location and because it touches upon many of the subareas of

and support tools, such as CATME and Tandem, is essential in monitoring andimproving student teamwork experience through insight obtained from various analyses [5], [6]. This study leverages data from an institutional database and Tandem. Tandem is a tooldesigned for assessing team dynamics and providing formative feedback. Since Tandem’s firstimplementation in 2019, it has collected responses from more than 13,000 students. For thisstudy, only data from the “beginning-of-term” survey (BoT) in Tandem and the responses to onequestion in the Midterm survey were studied. In this study, we explored patterns and types ofpre-semester concerns reported by first-year engineering students, investigating the followingfour research questions (RQs
