In 2012, only 23% oforganizations had an enterprise-wide Big Data strategy [5, 12], whereas today 97.2% oforganizations are investing in Big Data [4]. A recent Harvard Business Review [13] survey ofsenior Fortune 500 and federal agency business and technology leaders report that 70% of therespondents plan to hire data scientists. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), OccupationalOutlook Handbook 2018 [11] projects that there will be a 34% increase in data analytics jobsfrom 2016 to 2026.

One interesting point to note that was initially when the club was formed, the facultyadvisor did most of the work inclusive of planning and reaching out to professionals for technicaltalks and site visits. However, as students’ self-confidence increased, it was noticed that studentsbecame more proactive in bringing technology-related discussions for brainstorming to themeetings. Anecdotally, the advisor saw how the combination of those advancements, began toshape the overall direction of the club in that students began receiving more support, help, andattention from industry professionals and it is working to empower the female students throughinternship

In order to imagine visionary alternative societies, studentsemployed ethical principles, invoked themes and ideas from literature, and utilized new and evenspeculative technologies.

As we begin to look at student performance, we are utilizing McGill and Volet’sconceptual framework for analyzing student programs and diagnosing deficiencies [20]. Thisframework links three types of programming knowledge (syntactic, conceptual, and strategic)with the view of knowledge from cognitive psychology (declarative, procedural, andconditional). We believe using this framework to link our qualitative codebook withprogramming knowledge will allow us to further evaluate students’ thinking processes and thechanges in programming knowledge over time.

Assessments need to continually redefine desired outcomes and goals ofsuch programs.Another shortcoming was that the program gave students and faculty a stipend, but it did notprovide any research related expenses. This is potentially limiting for some projects if faculty donot plan for student researchers far enough in advance.Changes that will be made for the upcoming summer program will include faculty sessions toprovide structure and methods for appropriate mentoring.

Similar to that of a circus performer spinning three plates on sticks, it takes a tightlycoordinated planning effort and execution to ensure success – timing is everything. A similar case canbe made for the need for an inexpensive technology to accomplish the UAS/sensor integration. If anyof these requirements (time, money, personnel) in any category cannot be met, the project will likelynever commence and a valuable opportunity may be lost. Rapid
