There are severalfundamental issues, and we provide some solutions to these fundamental issues by reforming theIntroduction to Engineering course.The first fundamental issue is the open admission to the general population of students withdifferent mathematical skills. The curriculum of the engineering programs is much morerigorous than the other majors at VSU. Specifically, all of the engineering programs at VSU areaccredited by the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET). To maintain theaccreditation, the engineering programs are required to follow a very vigorous curriculum.Therefore, the students with weak mathematical background have difficulty to satisfy therequirements and change their major
