Thepaper concludes with subjective feedback on the effectiveness of this design project andits implementation from both student and instructor feedback.The Freshman Design Course:Like many other engineering programs, our mechanical engineering program at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology attempts to include design experiences throughout thecurriculum. As part of this overall emphasis, a 2 credit course is currently offered duringthe spring quarter of the freshmen year. Its primary focus is to offer students their firstformalized introduction to the process and methods of design as applied in an engineeringcontext. A wide variety of design methods and team oriented experiences are included inthis

Based on what was learned in the 2009-10 year, somemodifications to the study group organization were made to increase their impact. Thesechanges are described in the paper as well.IntroductionIn the United States today, there is great interest in the education and graduation of morestudents in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines.1,2There are two primary tasks that are needed for this goal to be accomplished.

My Journey Down the Tenure-TrackI started the tenure process focusing on the traditional triad of teaching, service, and research. In mysecond year, Purdue University secured a new president. This president enlarged th e triad and it wasredefined as learning, engagement, and discovery. What I found as I absorbed this new university change,is that the traditional university as a whole is under challenge from various forces worldwide. Technology,globilization and virtualization are just few of the factors that will help define the university of the future.Higher education is producing a product of insufficient quality to

harsh criticism that needs to be explored as we continue to explorethe data and collect more responses is the perception of recruitment fallout. Numerous facultyexplored the possible recruitment advantages of disadvantages the FYE courses have introducedinto the college. Among some faculty, the FYE courses appear to have an electrical andcomputer engineering focus, possibly due to the Matlab programming requirements andextensive use of Arduino microcontroller technology throughout the project components of thecourse. While the curriculum has been crafted given input from all departments and hasexplicitly included elements from departments that may feel more disadvantaged by the choiceof programming elements, the long-term effects on enrollment
