attitudes andbeliefs about mathematics.Introduction "Investments in math and science under President Eisenhower gave new opportunities toyoung scientists and engineers all across the country. It made possible somebody like a SergeiBrin to attend graduate school and found an upstart company called Google that would foreverchange our world," – President Barack Obama, March 10, 20091 Many have noted for years that mathematics and science can shape and change ourworld. The technological advances propelled by those knowledgeable in mathematics andscience during just the past century is remarkable. But, if we as a nation want to remaincompetitive in these fields we must make sure that students are prepared for advanced study inthese areas

Summer Camp focused on accelerating students to prepare them for college mathand to increase their interest in Information Engineering Technology and MechanicalEngineering and other STEM disciplines. The program has been very successful, as measuredby the progress made by the students in their math skills. The student body is 85% Hispanic. Thefirst two summer camps targeted high-school students, while the last summer focused on collegefreshmen students with low-level math skills. This paper describes the strategies used, therecruitment tools used, and the results obtained for three years of Summer Camps. One of themain results shows that an average participant student has improved their math skills theequivalent of one semester or even one year

Previously, engineering studentsonly had the option of taking General Chemistry (CHEM 151) for their chemistry course. Thefall 2015 was the first time CHEM 140 was offered for engineering majors. The ChemistryDFW rate went from 46.6 percent down to 25 percent between the semesters for engineeringmajors only.To circumvent the high DFW rate shown in Mathematics and Chemistry, the School ofEngineering turned toward the Supplemental Instruction (SI) program.

ABET student outcomes are not entirelytechnical and include that students must have an understanding of professional and ethicalresponsibility, the broad education necessary to understand engineering impacts in a global andsocietal context, and knowledge of contemporary issues. Nevertheless, discussing the societaland ethical implications of engineering and technology is often a daunting task for bothengineering students and instructors [5].At our university, as part of a National Science Foundation (NSF) Revolutionizing Engineeringand Computer Science Departments (RED

avoiding redundancies and in identifying other groups that have alreadyfound solutions to problems they might be facing. Doing so would speed up implementation ofprojects and reduce overall research-related expenses. Discovering the linkages among thesevarious frameworks and systems could aid in discovering unique pathways to complex problemsthat would go otherwise unnoticed. Reverse-engineering of the brain, for instance, could greatlyreduce the cost of computational power by greatly enhancing processing speeds of computersystems. This in turn enables developing countries access to cheaper and more efficientinformation and communication technology (ICT). Likewise, giving better access to the internetcould provide people in developing countries a

To address this concern, among others, ABET adopted theEngineering Criteria 2000 (EC2000), which introduced a new paradigm in engineeringeducation.1 The new paradigms in engineering education went beyond the need to keep studentson the cutting edge of technology, but required students to have interpersonal skills, beinquisitive and innovative, and most importantly, possess inter
