Inthe fall of 2007, a major curriculum change was initiated that introduced three new courses intothe first year. These courses are Engineering Graphics, Introduction to Engineering, andComputer Applications in Engineering. Each of these courses contains projects or assignmentsthat directly assess the achievement of

In the newcourse, seven faculty members teach the course, one from each engineering department.Assessment The research questions to be assessed is: does the new format of the course lead to a)improved retention; b) better understanding of various engineering disciplines by the students;and c) better-informed decisions by the students if they choose to change their major? To date, assessment data is available for the Spring 2009 semester (last offering of the oldcourse) and the Fall 2009 semester (first offering of the new course
