The investigative team has been involved in an ongoing curriculumimprovement project to seek ways to address this deficiency. On the other hand, there has alsobeen an assumption that fundamental vectors skills are imparted in upstream math courses suchas Pre-Calculus or somewhere in the Calculus sequence. Review of the curricula of theinstitution’s math courses and discussion with administration in the math department hasindicated that these courses do not cover vectors, and it is not until Calculus III

witheventual success in the field after graduation [4-6]. Some universities have implementedintervention strategies by gearing curriculum and department culture towards supportingstudents’ development of their individual engineering identities with this known promise ofstudent success [6]. Some major curricular changes surround the emphasis on design problemsused throughout engineering courses that inherently help students to feel more like an engineerafter completing the project [7]. Because the act of problem-solving correlates with the directdevelopment of all three of Godwin’s facets of engineering identity, providing more opportunityfor students to solve real-world problems correlates to retention [8] and success in the field [9].Studies have
