tuition assistance, this program had various components that assured every scholar hadthe adequate academic support and professional development opportunities to succeed in their fieldof study. Data that reflects the impact of this program on student success in STEM fields at UNMwill be revisited through this presentation. Although the program ended nationwide in September2007, NTP at UNM left a great legacy among students, faculty and staff at UNM. Many studentshave gone on to professions with private industry, state and federal agencies.

Marios S. Pattichis Electrical and Computer Engineering University of New Mexico Howard E. Pollard Electrical and Computer Engineering University of New Mexico AbstractField Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) provide an excellent mechanism for schools from thehigh school level through graduate level to teach concepts of digital logic in a hands-onenvironment. FPGAs are “chameleon chips” that are also critical components in state-of-the-artsystems from spacecraft to handheld devices to network routers. To master them, students

Hands-on Introduction to Chemical and Biological EngineeringSession 1526: We have revised our freshman seminar course by modeling it after RowanUniversity’s exemplary Freshman Engineering Clinic course which utilizes a hands-onlaboratory approach to introduce freshman students to engineering. Innovative laboratorymodules developed and published by faculty at Rowan under NSF funding were adaptedand implemented. These laboratories utilize common activities (such as brewing coffee,taking blood pressure, and delivery of medication) to teach fundamental engineeringprinciples, techniques for experimental measurement, data representation and analysis,and group problem solving and communication skills. Many of these laboratories aredesigned

in participating in the GC2017, the agendaof the event was refashioned to increase the engagement and leverage the expertise of thosepresent. While searching for international exposure as a common target for all the participants,due to the final layout of the event it was possible to summarize the issues of interest to them.The issues were collapsed eventually into four main interest domains, namely: Adapting to NewDigital Students; Competency-based Engineering Education; Games for Learning; andMathematics in the Engineering Curriculum.The GC2017 was deemed successful by the participants however several questions arise aboutthe ASEE community perception of the event importance as an internationalization tool for theUS universities.

UM-Rolla’s Introduction to Engineering Summer Camp Ralph E. Flori, University of Missouri-RollaThis paper describes University of Missouri-Rolla’s Introduction to Engineering summer camp.This week-long camp, geared to high school rising juniors and seniors, attempts to answer threequestions for students. First, is engineering for me? They learn about the engineering professionand solve some simple engineering problems. Second, is there an engineering field thatparticularly interests me? They learn about the fifteen different majors offered at UM-Rolla,they tour some departments, and they participate in hands-on activities in departments theyselect. Third, does UM-Rolla seem to be a good school for me
, andleadership ability become critical factors for success. Engineering laboratory coursesprovide unique opportunities to address above issues. This paper reports a new teachingapproach for engineering laboratory at undergraduate level, discusses the philosophybehind the teaching approach, and reviews the effect of the teaching methodology on thelearning process of the students and their ability to handle real world challenges. Theteaching approach actively engaged students in learning process, fostered theirenthusiasm about the course topics, challenged them to think critically and creatively,helped them build connections between what they learned in classroom environment andreal world. In addition, the teaching method helped students develop effective
