There are also many programs that adopt integrated curriculum,therefore the lab components are integrated into regular courses. For example, when engineeringdynamics course is offered, a 1 credit lab course is offered in conjunction with the lecture. Thisarrangement ties the experiments to course content very well, helps to reinforce the knowledgethat students learned from lectures. It brings the real world into theoretical education.While it is the general agreement that laboratories, hands on experience are necessary, little hasbeen said about what they are expected to accomplish [2].

Slow progress towards getting involved in meaningful basic and applied researchprojects may easily lead to a rapid declining interest in STEM and an eventual drop-out from theprogram4.In particular, numerous first-generation in college, economically disadvantaged and minoritystudents have difficulties navigating the college or graduate school system. Some of the proposedinitiatives that can aid in reducing the drop-outs from STEM careers are: (1) establishing a fellowshipprogram to reduce the student’s financial burden; (2) enhancing the faculty mentorship of minoritystudents and creating research oriented cohorts; (3

A team ofstudents works together, combining the topics learned during their undergraduate coursework tocomplete a substantial design project. Design courses can be uncomfortable for many studentsbecause of the open-ended nature of the requirement, leading to many questions such as “Are weon the right track? Do I have the right answer? Are we approaching this the right way?” Due totheir unique experiences, student veterans in engineering are well positioned to enable theircohorts to overcome these challenges.
