However, those skills once considered “soft” areincreasingly necessary not just to climb the corporate ladder, but even to access the first rung.Chief among those newly necessary soft skills is the ability to work as a member of a team. Thebig question is how to impart soft-skill lessons, especially in the academic environment whereoutcomes assessment is increasingly more important.In one form or another, though, team projects are an integral part of the manufacturing educationexperience.

assessed through pre- and post-program surveys. Overall, theprogram was deemed successful through increased comprehension of trigonometric propertiesand a general escalation of interest in engineering.IntroductionRecent studies have shown that minorities are continually less likely to obtain undergraduatedegrees for all engineering majors2. In particular, while recently demonstrating a slight increasein overall diversity, civil engineering continues to attract fewer minority students than otherengineering disciplines3. With today’s aging civil infrastructure, this discipline of engineering isin dire need of increased diversity that will motivate non-traditional solutions to the currentchallenges faced by the field.

By using several methods of active cooperativelearning, as suggested in the literature,9, 10 even in large and/or lower division classes, studentscan be engaged at a higher level.

holistic perspective on faculty hiring, retention, andpromotion at George Mason University.Who Are ‘STEM’ Faculty?In order to assess equity in STEM startup packages, an initial effort was conducted to identify who,specifically, would be designated as STEM faculty at Mason. This effort was perhaps less intuitivethan one might expect. The National Science Foundation (NSF), for example, does not have adefined list of disciplines it considers to be STEM, though one can intuit such a list based uponeligibility for the Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP), which is included in AppendixA for ease of reference [12]. We cross-referenced the NSF GRFP list to the Department ofHomeland Security (DHS) list of disciplines for which F-1 visa students can

Our program emphasizes breadth not onlyacross engineering disciplines, but also uses a solid foundation in the liberal arts that provides thebroad worldview on which effective leadership arises. Our outcome-based assessment of recentyears appears to reflect an industry need for more breadth and thus less depth. While depthprovides good preparation for entry level positions and the first five years or so of a career,contextualization better supports the full career span, which requires continual self-learning andoften has leadership opportunities in technical and non-technical areas.While engineering analytical skills are important

when faced withcomplex problems they have to agentively solve, this shows that these students can successfullydo design work to frame and conceptualize large and difficult problems.There are several limitations to this work. The primary limitation lies in the differing number ofcredit hours between the two courses. This is reflected in students in the CCEE course havingmore accurate calculations when analyzing their data collected in the lab, and having moreprofessional presentation slides. However, these results show that even a 1-credit class allows fornuanced design work from first-year engineers. The sample size for this study is also relativelysmall, limiting universalizing due to small-scale statistics.AcknowledgmentsThis material is
