The ultimate goal is to provideadditional technical expertise, but also to add the breadth that could make engineering a moreattractive educational experience, leading to expanded career opportunities. with a greateremphasis on leadership of technical activities to support lifetime career development.Engineering EnrollmentsThe number of freshmen entering engineering schools, in the United States, has not substantiallyincreased in over twenty years.

The hallmark of this approach is focusing onmaterial balances in detail before moving on to energy balances. In some cases, this occurs in asingle semester; in others, the material is covered in two quarters. In either case, the generalorganization of material is similar to that shown in the left column of Table 2. The first halfconsists essentially of mass balances; the second, energy balances.

interconnectedness is central to holistic learning (Miller, 1993).Cooperative Learning. Cooperative learning is a structured learning strategy in which smallgroups of students work toward a common goal (Cooper, et al., 1994). Cooperative learning isan old concept [Ercolano, 1994]. Extensive research, initiated in the late 1800s, hasdemonstrated significant advantages of cooperative learning over competitive and individualisticlearning in various learning characteristics; these include [Johnson et al., 1991]: high-levelreasoning; generation of new ideas and solutions; motivation for learning; personalresponsibility; and student retention.Cooperative learning provides structures [Kagan, 1990] to engage students in meaningfulactivities that can be shared with

problems are compounded by the traditionalapproach to engineering education, which delays the introduction of “real” engineering workuntil at least two years into the curriculum. Students quickly lose focus amongst the largenumber of seemingly unrelated prerequisites. The end results are low retention rates and toomany unmotivated and underachieving students, as demonstrated in electrical and computerengineering (ECE) programs across the country.One means to address these problems is the use of an introductory freshman-engineering coursethat immediately exposes students to the essentials of their chosen profession.
