As this collaborative PBL proves successful, it shouldhopefully attract other faculty and disciplines into its fold. Additionally, several of the disciplines that areinvolved are themselves fairly new to the college (Civil Engineering started in 2016, EnvironmentalScience and Environmental Horticulture in 2021). Therefore, these programs are still recruiting andformulating their own set of faculty expertise, as well as molding their student curriculum

Two major findings from the TAMU-SNL project and the IAC survey promptthe initiative to recommend curriculum change: 1) students are expected to have a strongbackground in engineering graphics, be proficient in CAD tools, and have a thoroughunderstanding of GD&T; 2) instead of only modeling and drafting, future mechanical designersare expected to perform design tasks that require in-depth knowledge and skill in certaintechnical areas.

The inclusion of introductory design courses in the engineering curriculum is afast-growing initiative that has been implemented in several universities across the US as part ofmultiple efforts to improve retention [1]. Still, current concerns about engineering retention andthe preparation that engineering students need, demand an examination of these courses. Oneway to examine these courses is by exploring how students use the content included inintroductory engineering design classes as they progress into successive phases of theirengineering education.

The principle of self-guided and group-guided inquiry was used.Many educational theories and data show that “... involving students in discussion fostersretention of information, application of knowledge to new situations, and development ofhigher-order thinking skills -- and discussions do this much better than lectures do.”8Freshmen experience the transitional education stage

Each course is built around a practical team project. With the project effort as thebackground, the courses introduce students to key issues in global engineering competence,such as technical and cross-cultural communication, collaboration and teamwork,organization and management, engineering ethics, critical thinking and problem solving, andintegration

A rational approach to introductory computingis based on the real needs of students and professionals. These should be assessed throughsurvey, study and evaluation, and then used as the basis for curriculum design. We believe wehave done this.There have been tendencies across the US to go in one of two directions when it comes tointroductory computing for engineering students:1) The "tools" approach. Here, the focus is on the built-in capabilities of a number of software packages. Students solve a variety of engineering problems within the confines of the software’s menu options.
