Thedata collection and related results will be presented in a series of publications. This paper is thefirst in the series. Below first we summarize plans for data collection and related instruments forthe comprehensive study. Then, we provide details on the completed pilot study.Overall, students will be asked, through surveys and focus groups, what type of technologicalcommunication, if any, they currently use to complete group work, if they have had anyexperience with remote group work, and their perceptions on incorporating group work throughtechnology into the engineering curriculum.

Afteranalyzing industry trends, student performance, incoming student experience, and discussingtheir findings with industrial partners, several key opportunities for improvement were identified.Designed to reflect the aforementioned changes, materials were deleted, moved, or added to thecurriculum as needed.This paper provides a discussion on the identified issues, the curricular changes made to addressthem, and the rationale behind those changes.

As students become part of the community ofcyberinfrastructure researchers, they learn the traditions, methodologies, and broad thinkingwithin this field early in their careers. This leads to students who are better prepared to enter theworkforce and who are intrinsically well-trained in thinking about problem solving within thefield. Also, our goal is to affect the pipeline significantly enough to increase the number ofstudents entering engineering, science, and technology programs at Purdue University andClemson University significantly.5.0 Related WorkPurdue is one of the first universities to establish an integrated research and education programin high performance computing and

Similarly,courses from a variety of departments fall under the “Cultural Analysis” group that can be used tohelp satisfy liberal studies requirements for Cornell Engineering students. Such groupings are notunique to Cornell. Many universities have started interdisciplinary programs, such as informationscience or symbolic systems programs, which relate courses in a variety of areas.Official and unofficial course groupings are often used when writing requirements for academicprograms. To account for this observation, CPAS allows the creation of an arbitrary number ofsuch groups, called categories.
