Required topics include fundamentals in modeling and analysis of system responses,time and frequency domain representation of systems, and underlying control theory andcontroller design. Due to the time required to conduct laboratories, a laboratory component insuch a course are often left as separate, or follow on courses as in [1]. The introductory coursethen focuses on modeling and controller design at a theoretical level and reinforces the conceptswith simulation of the system and controllers. When a laboratory component is included, it canrequire

become competitive graduates. Schools need to prepare engineering students forfuture world through education practices that emphasize problem solving skills [1-2]. In order toreach this goal, students need to be exposed to projects that are related to real-world problemsthat include the typical complexity and uncertainty associated with these problems [3]. Studentsneed to learn how to frame a problem, analyze, design, manufacture and test it [4]. To meet theseneeds, educators need to revise and fit new contents to their courses, to shift the learningobjectives to focus on including design thinking and professional practice elements in courses.This has also been set as goal by the US Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology(ABET

Additionally, the engineering program’s focus on hands-on design-and-buildexperiences naturally engaged students to discover how they could serve using the engineeringskills they were learning.In the beginning, the initial instructors collaborated with the EPICS program started at PurdueUniversity [2], [3] and patterned much of the GFU program from theirs. The EPICS program atPurdue was an elective for students. However, the faculty of GFU felt that the service-learningopportunity was important enough to create a sequence of courses that would be required of allengineering students. The SE

First-year courses are easy for some students, butrepresent a big challenge for others, being the latter those who frequently do not succeed [2].

A parallel curriculum addressing these non-scientific/technical skills isusually a strong contributor towards these goals. Another tool generally more directly controlledby science/engineering faculty is using courses in the discipline, especially laboratory courses, toemphasize writing components and/or presentation skills. Lab reports can serve as a very goodtool to sharpen writing skills or, more extensively, the skills needed to produce a coherent, wellthought, well-written scientific paper or technical report.A more comprehensive approach to different paths and philosophies for the teaching of writingskills and its balance can be found in the

stubborn trend is not changing much [1, 2]. Theoutcome is worse for black and Hispanic students, who usually comprise less than 10% ofengineering graduates [3, 4]. The lack of enrollment and graduation of female and minoritystudents in STEM programs has traditionally led to a STEM workforce that lacks diversity [5–9].To address this lack of diversity, the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) has instituted the Girls’Engineering Exploration (GEE) day.
