Centering around the song “Entrepreneur” by Pharrell Williams, studentsengage in lyrical analysis to extract and explore themes of social justice using the OUTKASTImagination framework. Students then engage with musical concepts from a computingperspective and implement them using EarSketch, a web-based, learn-to-code through musicremixing platform developed at Georgia Tech.

implementation of project-based engineering courses have been growing during thepast decade. However, evidence-based evaluations of the degree to which project-based courseshave improved student retention and learning are still rare. Faculty members at Texas A&MUniversity have developed a project-based first-year engineering curriculum that draws on theestablished knowledge base of integrated engineering curricula to construct a new learningexperience for engineering majors. The first pilot of the curriculum was offered to approximately200 students in the 2004-05 academic year. Students who continued in engineering are nowtaking a sophomore engineering mechanics course in classes with students who were intraditional first-year courses. Comparison of

engineering curriculum went through a major curriculum change in2001 that included adding an interdisciplinary sophomore and junior design course to theexisting freshman and senior design capstone courses. The new courses were added as part of aNSF grant entitled “Integrating Engineering Design with the Humanities, Social Sciences,Sciences and Mathematics.” The interdisciplinary sophomore design course has undergoneseveral iterations since its inception. Initially, the sophomore course paralleled our seniorcapstone design course with each project team of 3 to 6 students working on industrial sponsoredproject with a practicing engineer as the technical mentor. This approach has worked extremelywell for our senor design course because of the effort put
