Broadening participation and promoting diversity in STEM education is key to createfuture inventions [4,5]. It has been observed in the last couple of decades that there is a gradualdecrease in the Bachelor of Science graduates from US institutions in the STEM fields [2-5].Many findings and studies confirm that our nation is in urgent need of improvement in STEMeducation and strategies to correct the current situation [1-6].This is a work in progress to help our nation create a diverse pipeline of STEM majors to befuture scientists and engineers.

Technology The University of the Basque Country Abstract Computer engineers increasingly depend on the use of software tools to evaluate and inves- tigate the design of computer systems. It is therefore very important that educators in this eld promote extensive tool-based experimentation by students. However, the integration of today's complex tools into curricula poses several challenges to instructors. To deploy a tool-based class experiment, they must 1 obtain access to hardware resources that meet the requirements of the tool, and obtain access to student accounts on these resources; 2 install and maintain the tool software and

With the ever frequent reengineering and restructuring of corporate America,engineers are often working in disciplines that transcend their formal education. For example,many engineering graduates follow diverse career paths in medicine, financial engineering,management, public policy, and other fields that require a systems-oriented analysis andsynthesis ability. In addition, the highly complex and multidisciplinary nature of modernengineering systems demand synergies between various engineering and science disciplines anda strong synthesizing approach.
