,graduate students, and faculty. This paper analyzes the student learning outcomes, forEngineering and Engineering Technology (E&ET) programs, where the curriculum has beentailored to include undergraduate research, as compared to lecture & lab-based curriculum.Previous research, on which the present work is based, shows that research projects allowstudents to explore, discover and innovate in a limited period of time and space. Theliterature reveals that undergraduate research helps to integrate students with the faculty andresults in publications which appear in peer-reviewed journals. Thus the student is able tocreate portfolios that shed light on their learning and skills development in the professions.Through this work, the following

Standard Course of Study for Science and Mathematics. The Drone ExplorationAcademy served eighty-three (83) high school students, with 59.04% Male and 40.96% Femaleparticipants. The participants received approximately forty (40) hours of hands-on STEMlearning. Approximately, 60% of student participants were from underrepresented groups inSTEM. Project evaluation data was gathered through Student Feedback Surveys, Dimensions ofSuccess (DoS) Observation tool, and pre/post topic self-efficacy questionnaire.IntroductionBy 2030, over 60% of all jobs will require postsecondary education [1]. While adopting theCommon Core State Standards should lead to more college-ready students over time, studentswill still need programmatic support from secondary and
Bridge and Internship ProgramsAbstractUndergraduate students need exposure, initiation, motivation, and guidance to develop anorientation toward research that will benefit them not only in their capstone projects but also intheir future careers. Elizabeth City State University (ECSU) made such an opportunity availableto the rising junior and senior students of the Engineering Technology program.Fifteen rising junior students were selected to participate in the summer bridge program, and fourrising junior and senior students were selected to participate in a summer internship program atthe Coast Guard's aircraft facility. The project's scope was to engage students in designing,prototyping, and fabricating Unmanned Aircraft Vehicles (UAVs) and

development ofengineering students’ sociotechnical thinking, particularly in the context of complex designproblem solving [1, 4, 5].Existing research points to several pedagogical strategies for fostering sociotechnical ways ofthinking in engineering students. For example, one approach to catalyzing students’sociotechnical thinking in engineering design education entails employing community-baseddesign projects that position students to think about social issues as they respond to designchallenges [4, 6]. Such approaches rely on the authenticity of the design challenge andpresuppose that the authenticity, as manifested in interactions with community members and theconstruction of personally relevant artifacts, will foster students’ sociotechnical
