The elective courses are classified into four concentrations: (1) communication, (2)ethics, (3) creativity and innovation, and (4) global and societal impact. The four concentrationareas were created following research about other engineering leadership programs and thecourses available to engineering students across the university.

These efforts include first-year seminars, internships, learning communities, and capstone projects.2, 5 Study abroad,however, has not been seriously considered as a high impact retention activity. The researchshows that UUMs struggle in mathematics and science intensive programs such as engineering,not simply because of academic under-preparation per se, but more importantly, due to feelingsof not belonging and lack of confidence in their ability to learn coupled with low self-efficacyand self-direction.6-8 In fact, the common theme among successful high impact retentionstrategies is

Seniors were spending a significant portion of class time in the capstone designcourse learning to use the software, thus compromising coverage of other importantcourse topics. Students were spending extra time out of class playing catch-up withASPEN proficiency. Therefore, ASPEN was implemented as a problem-solving tool incourses at all levels of the curriculum, most recently including our freshman course aswell. As a result, ASPEN use has become comfortable and second-nature to all chemicalengineering students allowing faculty and students to focus more on important coursecontent.

engineering problem-solving is for the most partpostponed until Term VI, where it is the primary focus of the Modeling and Simulation (ME345)course. The reasoning behind such placement within the curriculum is that students first musthave a thorough grounding in (mechanical) engineering fundamentals before such software canbe adequately presented to the students. In addition, coverage during Term VI prepares thestudents to use such tools on subsequent internship/co-op assignments and the capstone SeniorDesign project, as well as provide the relevant modeling skills desired by industry upongraduation.As envisioned, the proposed library of CAE learning modules will change our current coverageof CAE software by enabling such tools to be incorporated

Forexample, the popular high school engineering program Project Lead the Way14 begins with acourse in which students learn and engage in the engineering design process.Recently engineering education has gradually shifted away from treating the science ofengineering and engineering design as different domains and, instead, to integrate them15.
