This is an important feature in the department coursestructure, as the Engineering curriculum was designed to be as inclusive as possible.Subsequently, the pre-requisite structure versus what could be covered in the core curricula wascarefully considered. In the context of the authors’ course, this meant the course had toaccommodate students with no programming background or basic electrical

By providing an opportunity for students increase their placementscore high enough to move more than one course through the curriculum, they are incentivized towork through and persist through any difficult topics.
