The university is just over 50% women but the Computer Scienceand Engineering (CSE) Department has held steady with roughly 17% women for the pastseveral years. High achieving women are going into fields such as bioengineering, chemistry,math, business, and biological science, but not computer science.

We might also work at sharing with them more on how to learn and how tostudy. They often enter higher education with unrealistic expectations about what it takes to be asuccessful college student and while there are efforts underway at many universities, individualinstructors, may need to spend more time on teaching thinking skills.

beneficial assignment of the year.” •“The solar collector project was great. It was a culmination of everything we have been learning thus far. Not only was it fun, but I feel that it really caused me to think on my own and apply basic engineering skills.”Conclusions:The three projects described provide practical experience in applying basic theory in thedesign of thermal systems. By giving students experience in building and testing theirdesigns, these projects give students the satisfaction of seeing how theory does, and doesnot, give them the ability to predict the performance of actual thermal systems.References:1: Accrediting Board for Engineering and Technology, Criteria for Accrediting Engineering Programs, Baltimore

Indicators of regulativeinstitutionalization processes (as discussed by ECSEL participants) include:a) Accreditation: By 2001, all engineering schools must be reviewed under new Accrediting Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) criteria which require that colleges demonstrate that their students have achieved skill competencies in areas such as design, communication, and teamwork. Many ABET-required competencies are introduced in ECSEL first-year courses. ECSEL participants believed that ABET’s new requirements legitimized their

The results from annual internal reviews were documented inpreparation for a program review by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology(ABET) in addition to the results from alumni surveys. These results indicated that AEgraduates required more intensive and timely preparation in two primary areas: application andcommunication.The impetus for a more application-based curriculum came from a change in faculty at the DetailDesign level.

This curriculum may be considered ideal for a design and manufacturing-orientedprogram. It was developed with comprehensive resource support through grants from the NationalScience Foundation (NSF), Sandia National Laboratories, and the federal Technology ReinvestmentProgram. The Learning Factory model was considered well-conceived and successful, as evidencedby its implementation in the engineering curricula of a number of
