The program was an ideal learning experience for students as they wereintroduced to key aerospace and aerodynamics concepts such as lift, drag, thrust, engineeringdesign, 3-D printing, mechanical and electrical systems and computer programming. Anotherprogram, the Drone Exploration Academy project at Elizabeth City State University provided6th-12th grade students a series of Friday sessions and a weeklong summer session in which theywere introduced to UAV mission planning, field investigation and designing ground and aerialvehicles to meet specifications [2].

Since the state science curriculum introduces electricity andmagnetism in 4th grade, the girls are familiar with some of the theory introduced in this lab. Thisallows for deeper explanation and experimentation. When told that they will make a motor outof the materials in front of them, they never believe it is possible. This leads to a greater sense ofaccomplishment when they do get the motor to work on their own. Like many of theexperiments, the girls can take the motor home with them to further experiment with.

courses'competitive nature.Engagement is one of the main factors that can be used to predict academic success. An engagedstudent is more likely to have short-term goals such as an intention to participate in an internshipprogram or long-term goals such as intentions to pursue graduate studies or move into the technicalworkforce. Tutoring sessions, field trips, and research projects have been introduced to theundergraduate engineering student's curriculum ostensibly to increase engagement. Peerdiscussions in undergraduate courses have helped develop the personal and social skills to thrivein an engineering major. Peer discussions seem to enhance student learning compared with coursesthat do not allow peer discussions [2]. Capstone projects serve as a great
