half a century, the primary focus of student involvement in engineering andcomputer science research programs has been at the graduate level. The reasons for primarilytargeting graduate students for inclusion in research programs and activities include thefollowing: Programmatic emphasis on education and research at the graduate level as opposed to t the undergraduate level. A need for specific background, skills, and knowledge (e.g., successful completion of a certain set of courses or undergraduate degree). Perceptions or expectations regarding greater dedication, drive, and motivation among graduate students (when compared to those of undergraduates). Perceived levels of greater maturity and sense of

Research on Use of Cambridge Engineering Selector (CES4) Software in an Introductory Materials Science Course Chrysanthe Demetry Worcester Polytechnic InstituteI. IntroductionCambridge Engineering Selector (CES4) software1 is being used in both educational andprofessional settings as a tool for design and material selection. Using educational versions of thesoftware, students are able to browse a database of material attributes, learn about and comparedifferent materials in a graphical manner, and select materials using a variety of design criteria.Integration of the software into both elementary and advanced courses has been reported toengage
motivation to persist and complete their STEM degree. This paper presents preliminaryresults from two years of implementing both programs. The results show that students have ahigher appreciation and understanding of research and will seek other research opportunities inthe future as a result of their participation.IntroductionIn 2011, California State University Long Beach (CSULB) successfully received a HispanicServing Institution STEM grant from the US Department of Education. The grant serves Latinostudents from the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics and the College of Engineeringand its focus is to increase retention and graduation of underrepresented Latinos in the STEMfields.
