With theexercises as a starting point, we will rapidly be able to exercise more sophisticated applicationsfor a wide range of algorithms, such as OSPF and BGP. More importantly, we will be able toenhance the undergraduate curriculum to include programming assignments for the students todevelop their skills further in modifying and creating new applications and algorithms that wouldhave been nearly unattainable in the traditional networking environment.It should be noted that more research needs to be done on the overall effectiveness of hands-onlearning.

Students were introduced to topics with application to engineering problems, such as Taylor Series, finite difference, root determination, complex number, and numerical integration. Both MATLAB and C++ were presented to students as a computing tool to generate results and investigate behavior in an engineering system. Through both computational and programming (MATLAB and C++) sessions, students were introduced to the following computational processes

There areexceptions, perhaps even increasingly so; these “exceptional” courses may be seen as part of alarger movement in engineering education to integrate ethics, human-centered design, leadershipdevelopment and community-based project work—considerations of people, in other words—into more traditional technical coursework [2] - [5].At the center of this paper is one such course newly offered at Stanford in the winter term of2017. The name of the course was ENGR 311C/FEMGEN311C Expanding Engineering Limits(EEL): Culture, Diversity, and Gender. The course was developed to address a curricular gap inthe school of engineering: the absence of an engineering-based formal learning
