requirements set forth by the Accreditation Board forEngineering Education and Technology (ABET). This paper presented a senior design projectrecently conducted in the area of autonomous robot. Our senior design course is structured as acollection of independent student projects. As our students are required to design, build, andtroubleshoot a fully functional, they find this course both challenging and rewarding. Thestudents’ feedback and their final project presentation indicate that they have pride in theirproject accomplishments and have gained confidence in their engineering abilities.References 1.

introduce core computer design concepts primarily to college students studying applied science and technology programs, such as computer science and information technology. With a particular focus on single-board computers and associated hardware modules, students are introduced to core computer compo- nents early in their coursework, and encouraged to study advanced engineering concepts as higher elective courses to help them better understand the underlying design of hardware modules. Hands-on ac- tivities and problem-based modules are re-designed with the flexibility to be applied in settings that involve all in-classroom cohorts, as well as courses offered in synchronous and/or asynchronous online learning methodologies, which is

ofthe most lucrative fields. University education in computer science, computer engineering, andinformation technology is providing students with abundant future job opportunities. Althoughthe lack of a formal computing degree cannot stop young people from securing a lucrative job intechnology, an academic computing degree can be a big advantage for a candidate. Industrystatistics suggest companies and startups are more likely to recruit someone skilled with abachelor’s degree [1], [2]. In spite of the increasing demand for computing jobs, computerscience dropouts are still the highest among STEM disciplines [3]. In addition, despite theemphasis on diversity [3] in technology, the gender gap in computing education and jobs hasworsened over the
