is generally not regarded as a degree which can place students in anengineering profession. Therefore, the ability of engineering courses and programs to transfer isextremely important. To meet these challenges, a variety of courses in the engineering department at SLCC areforgoing traditional classroom structures for either flipped or hybrid classroom structures. Thesedifferent structures are defined as the following: • Traditional Classrooms are such that a professor delivers lecture material, such as theory and examples, and student work on homework assignments outside of class. • Flipped Classrooms implement technology to allow students to access lecture material out- side of the classroom so that in-class time can be

He proposed that STEM education initiatives promote innovation, creativity, andingenuity in efforts to improve educational success and economic development4. Severalinnovation metrics, such as STEM degree production, change in research and developmentinvestment, and access to venture capital indicate that the United States has lost its competitiveedge in innovation-based global rankings5.
