name is Berrak Seren Tekalp, I am from Turkey, and I am a junior in Industrial Engineering at Quin- nipiac University. I have a mathematics and a general business minor. Beginning in my sophomore year, I’ve done many academic types of research with my professors. In these projects, I have used advanced features within the IBM SPSS Statistics and Excel programs. I am a hard and reliable worker. I have been able to expand my communication skills, and through my time as an active member of multiple student organizations and engineering groups at Quinnipiac. I’ve led numerous meetings and club projects. I am comfortable with working in teams. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020

One major concern must be related to themath knowledge that future engineers can and most likely will use15.The review and integration of math and engineering are to be conducted not only for freshmancourses but for the whole range of electrical engineering courses within a unitary structure.There is a considerable mismatch between traditional mathematics content for engineering andthe actual mathematics education needs of engineers within the development of a newengineering program, a point that is well expressed in the following quote6:“Clearly the engineering curriculum needs a major overhaul. To some degree, this will requiremodernizing the approaches to science and

Part of this problem related to the issue of students who took APCalculus believing they were well prepared for college calculus, whether or not that was trulythe case11. On the other hand, the 3-week course left little outside time for students to reviewand practice concepts and skills during the program or to have more time to processinformation that might be new to them. The limited results currently available indicate thatstudents in the 3-week course raise MPE scores more than the students in the 6-week course.However, grades in engineering calculus I were statistically significantly higher for studentsin the 6-week course. It is possible that student

Table 1 lists the course outlines andcomparisons for all three courses.

A major cause, we believe, is the inadequately developedmathematical intuition and skills that students possess when they begin college.

Some institutions haveoffered calculus courses with significant engineering content highlighting the applicability ofcalculus topics to solving engineering problems [8] – [9]. The inability of incoming students tosuccessfully advance past the traditional freshman calculus sequence remains a primary cause ofattrition in engineering programs across the country [13] – [14].The Citadel is embarking on a project to improve the calculus experience of engineering studentsin order to enhance learning and promote retention.

programs matriculate with math placement below calculus.Many of these freshmen have difficulty with first year math courses due to inadequate mathpreparation, poor academic skills, lack of interest (particularly when introductory math isdivorced from engineering applications), and other factors. The students’ difficulty in mathoften results in a pattern of taking other courses out of sequence and related academic problems.At least two principal approaches are commonly used to address these issues. One approach is torearrange the curriculum to include more engineering content in the early years, and delay somemath courses until students have more maturity and buy-in with the program. Another approachis to provide summer instruction during which
