problemswhile facilitating communication with different specialists in a team. As one of the leading collegesof engineering, our mission is to link theory and practice via our learning-by-doing philosophy.To be in alignment with this mission, students in both areas of engineering technology can take atechnical elective course in robotics and applications during their senior year. In this course, theylearn the basic principles of the science of manipulation along with basic control of roboticmanipulators. In the laboratory portion of the course, they work in interdisciplinary teams andbuild a robotic manipulator with the interface to teleoperate it by using a haptic device. They applythe system for specific tasks of activities of daily living (such as

Past studies have shown that whileengineering instructors value creativity, they believe it to be lacking in their students, while atthe same time current engineering students do not think that creativity is valued by theirprofessors1. Similarly, while there is a greater industry emphasis on recruiting creative engineersand a greater interest in creativity from new engineering students, related literature questionswhether or not postsecondary institutions are teaching creative thinking to their engineeringstudents1.

However, very little has focused on the issues faced byunderrepresented minorities who pursue a graduate degree or the need for effective mentoring ofpost-docs and faculty in engineering to attract and retain them to pursue academic careers.Women and ethnic minorities usually do not persist in academia because they frequently receivelower salaries, heavier teaching loads, less research support, and serve on more committees thantheir male counterparts. Although these disparities are more pronounced at the faculty level, thisleads to higher attrition rates at every level of career their development, starting at theundergraduate level.This paper will present our approach and preliminary results of a National

Recent hires (8 in total) have shifted the faculty mix to one that is now predominantly Ph.D. qualified. However, most have some industrial experience, and all have backgrounds that will help in promoting these core values and mission of the department. The old technology programs were effective in their hands-on approach in large part because of a collegial and collaborative environment that existed between faculty and the department’s highly trained technical staff. This was to be maintained in the new programs. The concerns of staff and their role in supporting the new programs was thus a
