Hick’sresearch indicates that pre-college students may be perceived as having (a) poorer academic andsocial preparation, (b) lower self-confidence, and (c) inadequate parental support.6 These issueswere carefully examined in first generation students. Another at-risk factor associated with pre-college students is their unrealistic picture of what college entails. It is believed that inaccurateperspectives about the university’s complex systems can be a devastating and challengingexperience, particularly for African Americans and other minorities entering STEM fields. 3

Assessment instrumentsincluded beginning, middle, and end-of-design experience questionnaires, videotapes of studentpresentations, and a reflective letter to their parents. Through the data collected, the paperanswers the following questions: a) Are real-life student design projects an effective means ofintegrating different courses? b) Did the real-life student design projects provide better studentunderstanding of engineering in general? c) Did the exercise of designing and presentingprojects, stimulate student interest in science and engineering careers?

The argument presented in this paper is that unlike hardware which can be (a) easilybroken by a novice, (b) so underpowered as to provide little interesting challenges or (c)dangerously powerful; a visual simulation can provide a rich learning environment. Fortunately,UTEP has recently been admitted as a PACE partner [3] and one important benefit to thispartnership is that UTEP students and faculty have a virtually limitless supply of certain types ofreal world engineering software. MSC.Adams is one of the software packages that is available.The basic idea described in this paper is to use simulation in the lecture to allow students to do areal design on what appears to be a realistic
