An important goal was to have students transfer withenough credits to graduate from NAU without needing more than 30 semester hours at NAU.Included in these considerations were ABET accreditation requirements as well as graduationrequirements from both schools. For example, students from CQUPT did not have the prescribedamount of mathematics and science required by ABET accreditation, so they must take anadditional science course. NAU has particular strength in Astronomy, Biology, and Geology andthose classes were added as alternatives to Chemistry

attempt to increase student motivation in engineering courses. The genesis ofthis pedagogical innovation was in the fall of 2013. At that time, faculty from the Department ofEngineering Education and Leadership (E-Lead) taught a required Introduction to EngineeringLeadership seminar course. However, retention in that course was low and the students thatremained heavily critiqued the course. Because E-Lead seeks to emphasize student leadershipdevelopment by encouraging students pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Leadership(BSEL) to take ownership of not only their education but also the education of their peers, thefaculty offered the students critiquing the course an opportunity to perfect the curriculum andinstructional methods

An initial environmental scan will help the program to set a curriculum whichaddresses the need of prospective students and employers. The program needs to distinguishitself from an engineering graduate program by having courses on managerial/leadership skills aswell as courses on decision making skills, in addition to technical courses, as part of thecurriculum. A step-by-step approach in growth, by slowly expanding the program, will help theprogram flourish as the offering becomes broader and therefore addresses the needs of a broaderconstituency.

Academic self-efficacy, curriculum content motivation and an ability to share academic struggles with otherswere important contributors to academic belonging. Social similarity, successful teamexperiences and a general sense of caring were also considered helpful to building socialbelonging in the classroom. Implications and ideas to build engineering classroom belongingfrom this research are discussed.Key Concepts: social belonging, engineering identity

It is also widely acknowledged that calculus in particular is a significant barrierfor many undergraduate engineers, because many students who do not perform well in their firstsemester of mathematics do not stay in an engineering major [4, 5]. This is a significant challengefor all engineering schools, since calculus is the basis for higher level engineering concepts, andis therefore generally taught at the beginning of engineering programs. It is important to study first year student retention in engineering programs because of thelarge number of reasons that students may leave in their first year. However, it is also important tolook

The effort that students put forth in solving these problems is a prerequisite for the studentsunderstanding and problem solving ability. Learners can mislead themselves in thinking they havemastered a topic, if they look at the solution to a problem before they expend sufficient effort in solvingthat problem. This self-deception can have a negative impact on student learning4. The temptation tolook at the
