. This diversity results in a datasetthat currently comprises twenty-five years of data that includes 1,014,887 unique undergraduate,degree-seeking students. Of those students 210,725 were ever enrolled in engineering. While theoriginal database contains only eleven institutions, the plan for MIDFIELD has always been toexpand the database to include all public institutions in the United States that offer undergraduateprograms in engineering. An award by the National Science Foundation (#1545667,$4,010,978.00, 03/01/16 to 02/28/2021) will support increasing the number of partnerinstitutions to 103. Students in the expanded MIDFIELD will comprise over half of theundergraduate engineering degrees awarded at U. S. public institutions and

plan toconduct similar studies in which we investigate the role of class level (i.e., freshman andsophomore classes versus junior and senior), major, and historically underrepresented groups,such as women and minorities. This preliminary study resulted in the development of a resourcethat instructors can hand out or show their students on the first day. Ultimately, in a field oftendriven by numbers, there is great power in showing engineering students that, mathematically,their academic success depends on consistent class attendance, diligent note-taking, and keepingup with the instructor during class.References1.

They were also able to design and implement a useful application using modernengineering tools and a variety of computer languages such as C and MySQL database. Theproject implementation met both its constraints; low-cost and low power consumption. Theproject design and implementation also satisfied many of student learning outcomes, asdefined by ABET, for capstone design projects.VII.
