The only way HIPs can significantly impact a courseis if the faculty are equipped with the proper pedagogical tools to adopt them in theirclassrooms. Towards this goal, the New York Institute of Technology Center for Teaching andLearning conducted a 5-day summer Course Design Institute (CDI). During the CDI, facultyparticipants read the book [3], designed or redesigned courses built on learner-centered designprinciples, developed a revised final or near-final syllabus, and learned how to apply research-based teaching and learning principles to course design.

GREscores have been proven to be a poor indicator of graduate school success time and time again[27-34]. Additionally, research shows that many factors affect GPA beside academic potential,including race, gender, first generation status, high school size, and family income [28,35].Evidence-based best practices have identified other more holistic factors as

Each summer, students from local high schools were selected to participate in laboratoryresearch as scholars under the supervision of a mentoring graduate student and faculty member.Each team composed of two YSs and their graduate mentor tackled problems innanomanufacturing and made significant contributions to ongoing research projects.
