purpose of this paper is to recommend adapting new pedagogical methods to theaccepted topics in an introductory probability and statistics course for engineeringundergraduates—methods that better match the learning characteristics of Millennial students inour courses. In a nutshell, those characteristics may be summarized as: (1) They want relevanceto their major, and future engineering career; (2) They want rationale (for the textbook selected,and for specific course policies and assignments); (3) They revel in technology (to collect data,compute, communicate, and multi-task); (4) They want a relaxed, hands-on environment; (5)They prefer instructors who rotate among several classroom delivery methods.Considering the “Five R‟s” learning

In 2012, women constituted just 12% of engineering graduates at theuniversity, while minorities constituted just 4%. In an effort to boost the enrollment, performance,and persistence of underrepresented students, the university applied for and received an NSF S-STEM grant to integrate engineering, biology, and marine biology students into an existingprogram supporting underrepresented students on campus. The combined program, known asSTILAS, provides participants with a $10,000 NSF scholarship, supplemented by the university,as well as dedicated tutoring and advising, and co-curricular activities such as field trips and
