Such undergraduate research experiences have been lauded as to their benefit toenriching undergraduate student experience in research and to further greatly impact theirinterest in graduate school.

A common desireof undergraduates in EE (and we suspect across engineering in general) is for more “hands-on”experiences. What little they get tends to be later in their college career; however, as the Do-It-Yourself (DIY)/Make culture continues to grow, more of our students are walking in the doorready and willing to “get their hands dirty” on

. Theevolution of learning technologies empowers the attainment of this goal more so today than inthe recent past. A further motivation is developing a model that can potentially impact the lack ofdiversity in the engineering profession. The demographic of community college students showsconsiderably more diversity than the engineering profession [11] and the new program makes anengineering education more accessible to community college students.The engineering development phase (EDP) takes place during the first semester for a cohort inthe Bell Program.

Industry advisorshave clearly identified the need for students to be exposed to a real-world laboratoryenvironment where modern instrumentation and computers interface in performing dataacquisition and data reduction [7, 8, 9].Experiments play a very critical role in validating analytical models and hypotheses. Studentsmust feel comfortable in a laboratory environment and must not feel foreign to lab equipment,instrumentation, etc. Students must also feel comfortable formulating solutions to realengineering problems using all of the STEM tools available to them.

This is not to suggest that every course the College offers should be set up in adistance learning mode. In fact, there are probably only a few courses that can, or should, beoffered in that format at this time.

Wireless networks courses become increasingly popular incolleges (including community colleges) and universities. However, there is a real concern withthe lack of hands-on labs based active learning in computer science, engineering and technologycurriculums. Hands-on project based learning is found to be the best way of learning andteaching wireless networking technologies. These hands-on projects also provide the problembased learning (PBL).In this paper, an undergraduate computer information
