IntroductionThe program described in this paper seeks to increase retention rates for engineering andcomputer science students and to evaluate the effectiveness of best practices for retention ofacademically at-risk students. The main hypothesis is that students who fall behind their cohortearly in their college career are less likely to be retained in engineering and computer science.As such, we focus this project on the academically “at-risk” student group defined as first-yearcollege students who are not

These concepts serve as a stepping stone fordelving into the complexities of AI hardware and edge computing.
