As ABET has increased emphasis ondesign in the curriculum, university faculties in all the engineering disciplines have beenforced to move the status of design instruction from a neglected stepchild of engineeringscience to the most prominent place in the curriculum—at the minimum as one of thecapstone classes taught in a course of study.Yet the reality that the author has experienced is that engineering faculty as a whole arenot well-versed in the general area of synthesis. Most were educated in analysis, usingadvanced tools of engineering science to achieve the Ph.D. degree. Further, once out oftheir graduate program and into a teaching/research position at a leading university

definitely more difference between the 80 and 89 students than the 89versus 90 students. 5. Some universities that have not inflated grades have added the student’s percentile ranking inthe class to the transcript in an attempt to offset the disadvantage of a lower GPA. This can showhow the student compared to others in his/her class.Grade inflation is a real problem for students, educators, and employers. Since grade inflationhas progressed more rapidly in non-science based curriculums, many students avoid the sciencesand choose grade-inflated majors to graduate with higher GPA’s. This has major implicationsfor engineering programs in attracting and maintaining students. However, we do not want tolower our standards and quality of education as we

While STEM attrition is a problemthroughout the 4-6 years of college study, the first-year experience (FYE) is most critical toretention of students in STEM disciplines. Thus, a focus on promoting success in the first yearwill help to ensure that students remain in STEM disciplines, as opposed to switching majors ordropping out. The primary barrier to success in Engineering/Technology is the mathematics“gateway” calculus sequence; the barrier to success in Science/Mathematics is generalinnumeracy and scientific illiteracy.

UAFS in conjunctionwith the University of Arkansas - Fayetteville (UAF) offers bachelor degrees in Electricaland Mechanical Engineering. The Fort Smith campus is responsible for the first two years ofthe degree and additional interactions with senior design students. In this arrangement,UAFS faculty members predominantly teach freshman and sophomore courses which canbring the trappings of monotony and deterioration of instructor’s cutting edge knowledge. Tohelp combat this issue, a sabbatical leave can be used to keep one’s knowledge up to date andbring new perspective to the classroom for both the instructor and

' distinct needs (Pascarella et al., 2004). Engineering education, in particular, should consider these challenges because the field demands not only academic rigor but also the development of a strong professional identity and self-efficacy—areas where first-generation students may experience additional hurdles (Strayhorn, 2012).Research shows that first-generation students are less likely to persist in STEM fields, includingengineering, compared to their continuing-generation peers (Chen, 2013). This disparity is oftenattributed to lower levels of social and academic integration, fewer support systems, and a lackof role models in STEM (Terenzini et al., 1996). These factors highlight the need for targetedsupport programming

Several of the instrument’ssub-domains (e.g., social support, interdependence) and items (e.g., everyone on myteam does their fair share of work6) were applicable to the skills targeted by EPICS.Further, published measures demonstrate how thoroughly the construct (e.g., socialresponsibility) was operationalized and measured. Such information can be used toevaluate the scale’s psychometric properties. Selected scales are listed in Table 1 forfurther reference.

Despite this, engineering education moved from engineering design to en-gineering science in the years following World War II, only to begin to ebb back toward a designemphasis in the early 1980s. The movement back to design began slowly, but soon gained mo-mentum with the addition of capstone design courses in many programs. By the late 1980s, cap-stone courses had become common and it had become clear to engineering educators that designeducation could not begin during students’ senior year.
