Early exposure to STEM is one of theprimary predictors of interest in STEM for undergraduate minorities [1].

-efficacy [32]. The study reported that there is a significant positive relationshipbetween engineering student’s spatial ability and self-efficacy [16]. Bandura [1] theorized that self-efficacy influence students’ choice of activities, effort, and persistence. Thus, improving students’spatial visualization skills through training may lead to improving students’ spatial abilities as wellas their self-efficacy. The effect on whether an improvement in spatial visualization skills wouldlead to an increase in students’ retention rates in engineering fields has been disputed [32]. Sorbyhas showed that students’ spatial ability can be improved through training over the course of asemester which led to an improvement in students’ retention rate

This paper addresses persons interested in education, engineering,architecture, and liberal arts.Attitudes Towards Integrating the Two CulturesPhysicist and novelist Snow [1] provided a stark and controversial portrayal of a polarityoccurring in the mid-20th century British higher education system. The polarity was theseparation and imbalance between the two cultures of the humanities and the sciences. Heclaimed that the educational system was favoring the humanities over the sciences through anantiquated notion of romanticism. He professed that this disparity would inhibit solvingproblems on a global scale in the modern technological world. Snow recognized the U.S.education system as a successful

As reported by McKinsey Global Institute [3], [4], although companieshave placed a strong emphasis on data and analytics to adapt to this era of data-driven decisionmaking, they are struggling to develop the necessary talent. Similarly, analyses conducted by theUS Bureau of Labor Statistics suggest that by 2024, only 450,000 college graduates will beavailable to fill nearly 1.1 million job openings in computing and information technology [5],[6]. To address this need, we developed a technology pathway program in data technology andapplications at a large, minority-serving public institution.

Women in Engineering
IntroductionIt is no secret that computing fields have a diversity challenge. In 2016, 57% of bachelor’sdegree recipients were female; however, only 19% of computer and information sciencebachelor’s degrees were earned by females. This gender gap in computer science education alsotranslates into the professional world where women hold 57% of professional occupations, andless than 25% of computing professions [1]. With numerous reasons cited, including stereotypesof the field, a lack of role models [7], and a desire to help others, attracting and retaining womenin the field is challenging; yet, it is crucial to push the discipline forward.The Duke Technology Scholars program, which began in 2016, aims to address the femaledisparity in computing fields

Thorsteinsson and Page [1]discussed the evolution of 3D printing and Industry 4.0 and remarked that “Industry 4.0 is touted,by many, to change the lives of millions over the next several decades. Industry 4.0 is a term thatseems to be synonymous with 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing”.The literature suggests that students and graduates who possess direct metal additivemanufacturing techniques knowledge and skills have a career advantage compared to studentswhose knowledge and skill base is limited to plastic printing [2]. Therefore, there has been arecent interest among institutions in direct metal additive manufacturing. Many institutions

To facilitate understanding of the PID controller, we use the Amatrol T5552process control learning system that has a built-in Honeywell PID controller. In order to see theeffects of different control types, we experiment in three different control modes: (1)Proportional (P) mode, (2) Proportional-Integral (PI) mode, and (3) Proportional-Derivative (PD)mode.

A good engineer is one who can look at a real-world problem, translate it to anengineering problem, apply the principles of physics & mathematics to formulate & seek anengineering solution and perceive it in the real world. The following stages are fundamental toany engineering discipline and should be the focus of any engineering program:1. Perceive a real-world problem as an engineering problem2. Apply the laws of physics to formulate the engineering problem as a mathematics expression3. Seek a mathematics solution by applying engineering mathematics (a) Solution

Ineither case, the large volume of anatomical structures and physiological principles covered inthese courses can make them quite challenging for students, especially considering how differentthis type of content is from other engineering courses (e.g., instrumentation, materials science,etc.) [2,3].
