The teachers therefore felt ill-prepared to assess achievementbased on the students’ completed products.When the academy was created, the acquisition of disciplinary knowledge and skills wasdownplayed in lieu of more “universal” skills (e.g., communication) and engineering habits-of-mind, particularly collaboration, critical thinking, and affect towards the profession. However,calls to shift the direction of the program emerged, in part due to a substantial number of recentgraduates who were not prepared to enter engineering college because they lacked corecompetencies, particularly in math. To address this issue, the teachers expressed a desire toidentify methods by which students’ knowledge and skills could be

Theintent of the program was not simply to cater to the highest achievers, but to serve the needs ofthe community, one in which a large minority population resided. Though the program carriedthe ‘STEM’ label, engineering was always intended to be the primary focus.

If coaching does take place, it typically occurs on a small-scale or in singlediscipline programs. Rarely, if ever, does intercollegiate coaching occur.

Female students who leaveSCE tend to do so even with higher SAT Math and math placement test scores, indicating theyare academically capable of remaining in the program but still decide to leave.

In the past cycle, the curriculum committee has worked to distributethe SO throughout the program so that there isn’t an imbalance with many courses providing datafor a SO while few courses contributing to another SO. This mapping of SO throughout thecurriculum is evaluated and adjusted at the beginning of an assessment cycle.

The authors noticed in recent years that many undergraduatestudents avoid enrolling in graduate school because they believe the only path for someone with aPh.D. in engineering is as a faculty member. To address this limitation, the authors have developeda 10-week program that couples traditional research-related activities with training inentrepreneurship. The concept was to show students how both fundamental and applied researchcan lead to start-up companies, patents, and industrial partnerships. Additionally, in the part of thecountry where LSU is located, there are numerous small universities and colleges that do not offerresearch programs for undergraduates, so this REU site is

At that time, a transfer student in the College of Engineering would enroll inEGR 112, a version of EGR 101-Engineering Exploration I specifically for transfer students, andthen in EGR 103-Engineering Exploration II the next semester. EGR 112 did not adequatelymeet the needs of transfer students as most of them already had some fundamentals ofengineering background and knew their intended major. EGR 112 was redesigned to include aprofessional development component and more in-depth work in Microsoft Excel, which wouldhelp them in other courses such as physics.

Some take non-engineeringcoursework to pursue other interests such as preparation for post-graduate professional study in afield other than engineering or to pursue a minor.
