A unanimousrecommendation was to include more “hands-on” activities that the teachers can take back totheir students. This transfer of information will allow their students to do more “hands-on”,problem-based learning such as drawing the flow diagrams with the computer and to performmore experiments related to the chemical processes. During the course, the teachers understoodthe basic concepts taught in a simplified manner as indicated by the questions asked during theirinteraction with the faculty.

Thelaboratories also demonstrate important aerodynamic concepts and the operation of aeronauticalsystems while validating the theory presented in the classroom. Most importantly, the labs excitestudents about engineering and inspire in them the desire to continue learning both in and out ofthe classroom.

Social capital plays animportant role in education because a student's social relationships and networks cansignificantly impact their educational achievement. For example, having friends to study withcan lead to success in school, resulting in improved grades, test scores, and overall academicperformance [18]. Social capital is crucial for engineering students because it not only enhancestheir educational experience but also provides a foundation for personal and professional growthin the engineering field [19].

cultural meanings associated with the profession. Understanding thesecultural nuances is key to understanding who enters the field and the perceptions of students asthey enter our classrooms.IntroductionWhen you think of an engineer, what is the first image that comes to mind? Is it a man in a hardhat standing over a set of engineering drawings, a computer programmer, or a solitary personworking on math problems? Whatever the image may be, it has likely been shaped by theportrayals of engineers within popular media. From Dilbert to Howard Wolowitz to Tony Stark,depictions of engineers cultivated in popular media reinforce cultural narratives about whatengineers do and who engineers are. These narratives impact not only public perceptions

engineer’s career builds off oftheir experiences, skills learned, and relationships made. It is common for an engineer to movepositions almost yearly so that s/he can gain valuable skill sets in his/her early years at acompany. From each new team, the engineer learns what they enjoy and whom they enjoyworking with. Each of these experiences plays an important role in where the engineer movesnext. Companies want to invest time and money in employees that are hard workers and get jobsdone efficiently and effectively. By succeeding in a certain position, a person can set themselvesup well for their next project.Figure. 3.

For the students that have already selected anAEC major, it accomplishes the proven effect of “early contact.” Since the core curriculumclasses are open to all majors at a university, it also provides a venue to recruit new majors byproviding a different perspective.
