STEP offered six mentoring sessions per year,internships for selected students, opportunities to attend conferences, and the possibility of asecond internship for students who began STEP as freshmen. The New Mexico StatisticalAnalysis Center assessed implementation and outcomes throughout the project. Short-termoutcome assessments focused on student knowledge of resources, engagement, attitudes,perceptions, and program satisfaction. The evaluation also measured the ultimate goal of STEP:to increase graduation rates among engineering students at UNM. This report highlights some ofthe key findings from the evaluation.

The data was analyzed to determine correlations betweenengineering identity, time spent in college, and academic success. This work is supported by NSFGrant# 1832041. IntroductionThe number of engineers in the US with an undergraduate degree in engineering is well below theneed, and this gap is projected to grow over the next five years. For example, it has been reportedthat by 2025 more than two million jobs requiring science, technology, engineering and mathematics(STEM) background will be unfulfilled1.The number of

The curriculum for these courses (engineering analysis, design, computerprogramming, technical communication, the engineering profession) is applicable to allengineering disciplines, however, the six credit hours that they occupy are in high demand inevery degree program.According to Christopher Rowe (Rowe, et al., 2005), “Approximately 40% of the first-yearengineering students at Vanderbilt University are unsure of their major upon entering theuniversity.” To help students make an informed decision before getting

Since the entire method can be performed exclusively in EXCEL, the instructor maydemonstrate the use of this tool following the step-by-step procedure described in the previoussection by projecting the laptop screenshots on to the large screen in the class room.

The literaturesuggests that through these methods students engage higher-order thinking tasks which in turnpromote stronger development of necessary problem solving skills5. Students who learn by thesemethods have been found to have better overall achievement as well as improved criticalthinking skills4. These skills thus better prepare the student for life-long learning when comparedagainst a traditional lecture-only approach. By asking students to complete an assignment wherethey had to identify a system or object in static equilibrium, it was intended for the student tobegin to look beyond their textbook and relate the course material with their surroundings.Similar work by others has demonstrated success in
