cohort of students don’t miss out on important concepts thatthey will need in later courses. In the previous curriculum, adjustment to fall courses would havebeen made for future students, but without the studio courses it was more difficult to addressweaknesses for the students that had already completed that semester.We expect that many challenges, both known and unknown, will need to be worked through. Weplan to collect data and document the implementation to produce a four-year longitudinal studyof this new curriculum. Our hope is that others contemplating similar curriculum revisions canbenefit from what is presented here in this paper and may have suggestions for implementationof this curriculum.References 1.

assigned post-studio work, due during the followingweek.The course concluded with a large design project that combined technical course content withcreative thinking. Students were asked to design and program their own interactive game whilefulfilling a set of technical criteria. Students were also free to work individually or with a partner,and no restriction was set on the theme or type of game. This course format was offered again inspring 2016 to a much smaller class size. The spring class is offered primarily for students whodid not successfully complete the fall session, or for some legitimate reason missed the previoussession(s).Following the conclusion of semester, students were asked to provide feedback via a quantitativeand qualitative
four students each were instructed to brainstorm several business opportunitiesrelevant to the biomechanics field. The proposed ideas could provide either a product or service.Teams were to identify potential customers for their ideas. Students then assessed the merits andpotential impact (to the customer(s) and society at large) of their initial ideas. Over the course ofseveral weeks, the teams continued to refine their concepts by performing market analysis toconsider resources needed (costs, personnel, facilities, manufacturing, distribution, etc.),intellectual property protections, and an understanding of their competition. This iterativeprocess continued for a couple weeks offline until the teams selected their preferred businessidea.At
throughout the academic cycle. “...students frequently question their identity, relationships, direction and worth during transition to school which produces turmoil and crisis. Stress of relocation, separation from family and friends, new people, academic challenges, discrepancy between expectations and reality, loneliness, and lack of support all significantly relate to attrition” (Lee, D., Olson, E. A., Locke, B. Michelson S. T. & Odes E, 2009, p. 5).Students past the initial transition face stressors related to making progress in research orprojects, successfully completing academic milestones, and job hunting. Even the most resilientstudents can be negatively impacted by these stressors. In the worst case

. Throughthis analysis we will be able to identify trends in how students are using resources so that we can makebetter recommendations to future students. In addition, the concerns about barriers to resources, orresources that students would like to become available can be turned into practical solutions in theclassroom. In addition to the things that can be learned from the qualitative data contained in this survey,we hope to construct both peer networks and resource networks based on the data using concepts fromsocial network analysis.References:[1] B.

knowledge inthe electromagnetic principles help students understand how the machines work. But in theworkforce, graduates will need to understand how to choose a given motor for a particularapplication. This means answering questions such as: Which type of motor is the most appropriate for the given application? At what speed(s) should be motor be operating? What torque is required for the application? What environmental issues need to be considered in selecting the motor?An initial foray into motor selection was briefly discussed as part of a larger discussion involvingworking with industrial partners [10].
