capstone design project, but will help build their identity as engineers and better preparethem for professional practice 41, 42. Research points to several contributing factors which play arole in improving student learning during engineering design experiences, including the impactof active, project-based, and hands-on learning methodologies, and the development of a sense ofcommunity and a peer support network23, 43-45. Cooperative learning approaches that are hands-on and interactive are particularly appealing to underrepresented students 46-49. First-yearengineering design was highlighted as one of six key areas in engineering education innovationat the 2011 ASEE Annual Conference 50. Pioneered in the 1990’s and implemented in severalNSF

Therefore, future studies regarding student motivationsystems or other psychological factors are in need to explore factors that facilitate or impedestudents to transfer to a four-year engineering institution and factors that facilitate or impedetheir subsequent success at the four-year institutions. Third, time to graduation was consideredonly at the final degree granting institution. Therefore, further exploration about the amount oftime that transfer students have spent at their initial institution(s) is necessary in order to accountfor total time to graduation. Fourth, some factors that could be investigated here are the slope ofhow fast they graduate from the degree granting institution which is an indicator oftransferability of courses that

is more value in gaining such information by exploring these researchvenues. Research which is conducted by visiting the site is known as field research2. It consist ofparticipant observation, interviews and document analysis as seen in figure 17. Field research canbe very exciting and rewarding and at the same time extremely overwhelming. It is important toknow what kind of information needs to be collected at the time of such research. Since the fieldis full of stories and actions, one can easily become lost in the scenario, hence having a biggerpicture and focusing on the specific research question(s) is a very important component of thefield study2.

The survey asked that faculty members answer the questions byplacing an X on the line for all options that may apply. The first two questions asked the facultyabout their teaching rank and work status. Faculty responded included eight full professors, fourassociate professors and three assistant professors. Eleven faculty members identified their workstatus as full-time, tenured. The other four faculty members are full-time, tenure-track.Question three asked the faculty to state the reason(s) for pursuing a teaching career in theUnited States.
