Traditional thermodynamics courses are taught in the mechanicalengineering and chemical engineering departments, but concentrate primarily on physical systems andprocesses. The Biological Systems/Biological Engineering discipline requires study of thermodynamicsof living systems as a pre-engineering foundation course. The course outline begins the normal way fora traditional thermodynamics course with discussion of basic concepts and properties of puresubstances (water and freon). A detailed treatment of the first law illustrates applications to food andenergy, psychrometrics, bio-mechanics, and human blood flow, with problems.

Since most undergraduate engineers enter the workforce directly from college (~20%attend graduate school), an engineering curriculum should better prepare students for the type of skills they willneed in industry. 1,2,3,4 This “simulated corporate” environment presented in this paper is design to emulate the learning processstudents will encounter in industry. This course is designed as part of the electrical and computer engineeringcurricula that exposes students to all aspects of integrated circuit design and fabrication.

This issue has led to the development andimplementation of a variety of first-year engineering experiences designed to recruit morestudents to engineering and to retain them once they have chosen to pursue a degree inengineering. At the University of Cincinnati, three common courses were introduced during the2012-2013 school year to provide first-year students with hands-on experiences in engineeringand a link between engineering and the required mathematics and science courses.This paper includes a
