Furthermore, in order to train the engineers of tomorrow, it is imperative foreducators to introduce new teaching methodologies and demonstrate collaboration whereverpossible; at the respective

weconceived of the studio courses, the intended aims were: • For faculty to help students connect the dots between the various content courses that students take during the semester and help them see how their learning fits into a broader perspective. The hope was that these connections between courses and their relation to the students’ career fields would result in a transformative learning experience [9]. • For computer students to form a cohort of peer learners early in their academic career. Many studies have shown that students who belong to a community of learners tend to be more engaged and are more likely to be successful in the program [10], [11]. Because military veteran students

It is also designed to serveindividuals who perhaps have graduated from a computer science, information technology orsimilar degree program some time ago and who want to gain new skills

Mentors have a positive impact on women's self-esteem, jobsatisfaction and work-life balance [31].
