evident to the FYE team that students leaving EGR 215 did nothave the same hands-on skills that their freshmen counterparts in EGR 103 had. In order to betterprepare the transfer students in EGR 215 for their future courses, it was determined that anelectronics and coding component should be brought into the design project, and because of thevarying backgrounds of the transfer students, some of that material would have to be eitherpresented in class, or provided in the form of online resources. Students were provided Arduinokits to work with in class and were shown how to wire a servo motor to the Arduino board andhow to program it to rotate in MATLAB. At this time, students were also pushed to developcomponents in the Innovation Center, the

The student willalso need to count the number of atoms that sit on this plane, which can be veryconfusing if the student tries to mentally picture this, but it reduces to mere countingwhen using the CAVE. Error free visualization of the plane will then be accomplished,but that would be just half the task. Finding the area of the plane will enable the studentto calculate the density. Innovative examples can be employed to let students realize thatthe best mechanical and electrical properties can be derived only if proper crystalgeometries are used.

This places students in the role ofend-users of technology, a vitally important thing for them to learn, but does not addressstudents' possible roles as creators of AI and ML models. While learning to use and explore thecapabilities of ML and AI platforms is important as a component of machine learning education,we believe that is also critical for understanding the functioning of AI and ML to train MLmodels. The depth of understanding that comes from training is vital to prepare students to benot just consumers but innovators and informed decision-makers.While AI is new, coding and robotics have been in the classroom for a couple of decades andhave been shown to promote critical thinking, problem-solving, interest and

Lessons LearnedLeading a project of this magnitude came with various benefits and challenges for both facultyand students. Ultimately, students appreciated the opportunity to work on a hands-on projectwith a tie to the local community. The opportunity to work with students and faculty fromdifferent disciplines was generally valued as well. The flexibility of the course structure allowedfor many of the groups to demonstrate exceptional innovation and creativity, exceedingexpectations of the instructors.While some groups exceeded expectations, there were teams that conveyed less enthusiasm fortheir project and developed less satisfactory results.

Engineering and technology havealways had an important role in addressing the needs of society, it is now gaining recognition foraddressing societal problems. This is recognized and enhanced by an increased representation of womenespecially women of color. This change will result in a positive outcome by bringing more diverse waysof thinking and innovation to the classroom as well as companies that employ them.Literature shows that there are many different reasons for lower recruitment and retention rates forwomen in Engineering and Technology which include preconceived notions on the nature of work andgender stereotypes in these fields. Additionally, there is a lack of access to women role models

INTRODUCTION Our visual perception contributes a great deal when we need to analyze and interprete our environment. Likewise, with the proliferation of artifitial intelligence (AI) in all aspect of technological innovations, computer vision, a subset of AI, emerges as a key player. The importance of computer vision in multimedia, robotics, autonomious driving, medicine, and education, to name a few industries, is well established [1]. While our visual cortex performs image analysis effortlessly and with excellent efficiency, however visual perception in computer vision remains a challenging task. One such challenge is the presence of
