My first reaction was, “Why would I do that? The students will not see any point incoming to my class.” Furthermore, I was concerned that my students would not learn to be goodnote takers, instead relying on the

. 1. IntroductionFor an engineering degree to be generally accepted, it must come from an institution whose degreeprograms have been certified by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).One of the essential major components to achieve program accreditation by ABET is the approval ofits capstone design activities, which are commonly referred to as its senior design courses. We havefound that a student’s successful completion of his (her) engineering design project is muchdependent of his (her) engineering mathematics background. The Electrical Engineering Departmentat Southern University and A& M College, Baton Rouge, in the past twenty year experiences hasshown that students with engineering major can’t make a

an outreach program is to define what is meant by outreach. Forthe purposes of this paper, we contrast outreach with recruitment by distinguishing between thegoals and expected outcomes of a particular program. Some programs have elements thatcontain both outreach and recruitment goals. These definitions will naturally vary amonginstitutions somewhat. Outreach programs might have goals that include encouragingunderrepresented groups to consider science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) careers,informing students and teachers about the fields of engineering, helping enhance K-12 scienceeducation, etc. Recruitment programs typically have very focused goals of encouraging studentsto apply to a particular university and/or a particular

One such study is from Krupczakand Green who described what non-engineers were interested in learning about within atechnological literacy course15. Students frequently mentioned wanting to gain practicalinformation to help consumers and users of technology, such as understanding what to do whentechnology breaks down. Understanding the actual thinking processes of scientists or engineersdid not come up. However, some educators do emphasize the need to make engineeringeducation more flexible so that non-engineering majors who want more technical backgroundhave a means for getting
