Thisinformation may inform both long-term and immediate changes that universities and instructorsmay be able to take to improve student learning outcomes and experiences within engineeringprograms.Methods An initial online survey was sent to 383 students among eight different sections of a first-year engineering course that was being conducted in a 100% remote learning environment duringthe Fall 2020 semester. The online questionnaire included a total of 10 COVID-related questions,each on a 5-point Likert scale. The questionnaire asks questions related to student

Semester 1:Manufacturing Planning and Control:Students were introduced fundamental concepts related to manufacturing processes and control.In context of this course, the term manufacturing, and related terms of production, refers to‘making of many’. The topics covered were: introduction to manufacturing systems, MasterProduction Schedule, Material Requirement Planning, Inventory Management and Control, andIntroduction to Lean Production. The scaffolded aspects of electronics and digital fabricationwere covered through the examples (e.g., mass manufacturing of LED lights for decorationpurpose) given when discussing the manufacturing concepts.

One of the reasons for a low number of local students entering STEM majorsat the university was found to be the lack of access to these courses among students in high schools.This study presents a partnership between a college of engineering and the local school districtfaced with low numbers of students enrolling in STEM majors, who sought to change the trend.Our partnership began planning in 2019 and started our first cohort the summer of 2020.

Yet this cannot be done unless all logistics andtransportation professionals, irrespective of their functional orientation and current jobresponsibilities, fundamentally understand the dynamics of how products move from one placeto another. This is one of the disciplines that is growing at a faster pace. The issue is that thenumber of graduates in this field is not meeting the current industry demand.
