extends back to the 1930’s when the school was a junior college. The University wasknown as The University of Tennessee Junior College, and the engineering program consisted ofthe first two years towards a baccalaureate degree in the student’s chosen field of engineering.The University became a four-year college in 1951. Most degree programs were transformed intofull four-year baccalaureate programs at that time. The engineering program remained a two-year transfer program with most students transferring to the University of Tennessee atKnoxville.In the fall of 1967, a formal proposal was developed by the UT Martin Department ofEngineering and submitted to the College of Engineering at Knoxville for an engineering degreewith majors from one of

Wright STEPP targets all 7th through10th grade students in the city public schools. Forty students from the 7th grade are selected eachyear with a minor replacement at the higher grades. Every year, 160 students (40 from eachgrade 7th - 10th) attend this four-week program that operates at our university campus. Thisprogram is in accord with the American Competitiveness and Workforce

Many ofthe responses were Neutral and one survey had a written response of N/A with respect to the oneof the third party questions. It is believed that many of the “Neutral” answers may have been “Idon’t know what the other two did when they were working in a two-way interaction.”Therefore, it is recommended that a sixth response category be added to the survey to allowstudents to answer “no observation” or “don’t know”.

Topics that have been addressed include troubleshooting teaching, working with student project teams, dealing with fund ing agencies, and the most popular one, writing effective NSF CAREER grant proposals. The average attendance is between ten and twenty. One of the principal reasons for initiating the workshop was new faculty dissatisfactionwith the orientation they received following their arrival at N.C. State.
