, where regressionsincluded SAT scores, those institutions used a different model that did not include the SATscores as a predictor.6 Having some schools on a quarter system and others on a semester systemas partners has been overcome using standard formulas to convert quarter hours into semesterhours. Some institutions could not provide an accurate flag indicating a student’s participation ina cooperative education program, so this has been managed by counting semesters-to-graduationrather than time-to-graduation. This is becoming a greater concern as the research team hasrecently been studying the characteristics of students in cooperative education programs.Fortunately, the institutions that do not have an accurate co-op flag have a course

Although thefocus on this work was on assessing the extent to which RET experiences influence the studentsof RET teachers to pursue engineering and other STEM majors and careers, the researchaddresses broader questions regarding what motivates students to study STEM and in what waysteachers can stimulate and sustain such interest.Literature Review RET programs have been evaluated extensively.1 Yet scant research exists related to theassumption that providing K-14 teachers summer internships in research labs and industrysettings translates into greater interest in STEM subjects and fields among their students.

During spring, summer and fallsemesters, students are guided to conduct interviews with potential users of their innovations andrefine their entrepreneurship skills. After seven years of successfully impacting students (blindfor review 1 and 2) a team of investigators is looking into aspects of the training that might havebeen unperceived during prior assessments. In this study, we analyze via quantitative andqualitative methods, the answer to the research question: What aspects of the I-Corps Siteprogram experience could be enhanced or modified based on performance and perceptions ofparticipants?

Design is outlined as one of theseven attributes that engineering students must demonstrate prior to their graduation as setout through the ABET guidelines. It is important to understand the factors that contribute todesign capability to achieve this learning goal. Design problems by their nature are cognitivetasks and as such require problem solvers to draw both on learned knowledge and pertinentcognitive abilities for their solution. In the context of engineering design problem solving
