S-STEM project “HumanConnect” is aligned withthe Humanitarian Engineering Scholars (HES) program in the College of Engineering andsupports scholarships of up to 4 full years for academically talented students who demonstratefinancial need, enabling them to enter the STEM workforce or graduate school following STEMdegree completion. Our two main goals are to 1) Positively impact the retention and graduationof Engineering students with financial need and 2) Improve academic performance relative to acontrol group (selected from another scholars’ community, Green Engineering Scholars or GES).In the first year of the award (2013-14), scholarships were granted to a first cohort of 15 students(11 first year and 4 second year). In the second year

This software wascompleted in December 2015 and is currently tested through a course project in one of the twomechanics of material sections. The efficacy of the “virtual” hands-on learning experience inmechanics of material course via VML will be assessed by 1) in-class survey, 2) comparison ofquiz scores conducted pre- and post-project with VML, and 3) statistical analysis (T-test) on thefinal exam scores.2 IntroductionMany studies have indicated the importance of hands-on experience in engineering or physicseducation1,2.

This paper will provide details of the two projects, their implementationand the analyzed results of a student survey.1.

JunctionTransistors do not. Due to its very low (sub-ohm) RDS resistances, the MOSFET transistor haslow VDS saturation voltages as compared to the VCE saturation voltages of a BJT. Even lowpower MOSFETs have VDSon voltages of 0.1 volts or less when the BJT VCEsat voltages can be inthe 0.5 to 1 volt range and even higher. This allows the MOSFET to have significantly improvedswitching characteristics over the BJT in comparable applications. In addition, most MOSFETshave an output protection diode which allows utility comparable to a BJT in switching inductiveloads such as relays and motors.Along the same lines, the MOSFET retains its amplification characteristics much closer to its

The theoreticalmodel proposes that the secondary-tertiary transition in mathematics is a rite of passage [1],[2].During the transition, students may struggle due to differences in high school and collegemathematics [1],[2]. Because of this struggle, mathematics is commonly characterized as agatekeeper to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) degrees [3].Therefore, for mathematics-heavy STEM majors, such as engineering, mathematics courserequirements could inhibit STEM degree completion.
