nation arecontinuously striving to update their curricula to prepare their graduates for success in both theindustrial and the research worlds.Machine learning (ML) is an emerging field that started as a topic in computing sciences butevolved to gain an increasing popularity in the industries related to Mechanical Engineering, ECE,as well as other fields in the humanities and social sciences. As a result, it is becoming a staple onthe list of “highly-demanded skills” for many of the ECE employers. In order to fulfill thisworkforce need and help increase the employability of our graduates, an undergraduate machinelearning course has been developed and is currently being taught for the first time in Spring 2022.Several challenges were encountered

Thefreshman-level core undergraduate course provides a broad overview of the field of BME and isintended to be taken first in the BME curriculum. Active learning is commonly defined as amethod that engages students in the learning process through meaningful activities thatrequire the student to think about what they are doing 1. This is in contrast to passive learningwhere students passively receive information from the instructor usually through lectures.1Active learning was pursued for the following studies as it is enjoyable,2 motivating to students(particularly underachieving

Second, a collaboration would connect our undergraduate students to CBBGresources and to the CBBG’s graduate students, researchers, and industry partners, and therebyexpose our students to research experiences well beyond our college. And third, a collaborationwould potentially help us to identify new questions that we might then be able to pursue in thefuture.

For example, many students who perform poorly are students thatreceived transfer credit for calculus. This is somewhat surprising, since the majority of themathematics used in EG 220 doesn’t require calculus-related concepts. Apparently somestudents have problems making a transition between calculus and circuits, going from abstractmathematical drills to practical application of mathematical principles.
