Why isn’t there a common set of objectives for the first year engineering courses? What would we consider to be the best practices for first year engineering program? For example, should we teach Matlab/Excel rather that introducing students to the disciplines? If students were so successful in High School, why is there so much emphasis on success? What do we mean by success? Are there any of these objectives that are hard to assess? How might we assess them? Is there anything that we think should be a best practice that isn’t
