), aims to enhance the freshman experience forincoming students by developing key academic success skills. The program is developing self-transformation skills in freshman mechanical engineering students to help them overcomeacademic and professional challenges exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. FYIE participantsare taking two courses simultaneously: Introduction to Engineering (Course A) and LearningFrameworks (Course B). In Course A, students will complete a 6-week engineering design project,and in Course B, they are completing a 6-week academic career path project. During these parallelprojects, timed interventions demonstrate the analogies between the engineering design processand the academic career pathways project. The objective is for
