Students who participated in the camp(N=56) built and optimized their own take-home electronic devices. Pre- and post-surveys were collectedto analyze the students’ engineering self-efficacy, knowledge, and engineering skills. Results suggestedthat students’ self-efficacy and beliefs in succeeding in engineering majors and careers increased aftertheir experiences in the camp; they also improved their engineering knowledge and skills (p

orconsidering changing out, we see three recurring issues:First, students begin their undergraduate careers with a distinct lack of understanding, or intuitive“feel” for electrical engineering. For many other disciplines it is relatively easy to relate subjectmatter to previous personal experiences of the students. For example, when discussingconservation of momentum, the basic ideas that heavy and/or fast objects are harder to stop thanlight or slow objects is something that students have personally experienced and themathematical models serve to reinforce what they already “know”. In electrical engineering, wedo not have this advantage when describing the physics internal to our electrical devices so themath is not verifying a concept that they

Problems such as water quality may attract students to engineering as a means topursue a career dedicated to improving the human condition.

This results in some very lopsided competitions. We view this as a threatto novice players. Our conclusion is that the disparity of skills in an unbalanced gameenvironment creates a hostile, inaccessible environment for students with budding interest incybersecurity who have limited computer-technical skills.Observation 4: Many competitions do not emphasize the tangential competencies ofcybersecurity careers such as ethical, legal, and privacy concerns inherent to cybersecurity.Additionally, most competitions also don’t explore the need for demonstrating

Callahan, 2004;Kazmierczak, 2005). According to the National Science Board (2012), only about 8.6% of highschool students choose to go into STEM fields. Additionally, around 4% of nearly 4 million highschool graduates in the USA graduate college with an engineering degree (Orsak, 2003).In addition, STEM education is facing a diversity issue. Some ethnic groups and women areunderrepresented, especially in engineering. Women make up half of the population and are notvery interested in going into engineering for various reasons, including not feeling welcome inthe engineering environment, not encouraged or expected to succeed in that field (Lambright,Johnson, & Coates, 2009), or the misconception that engineering is a ‘nerdy’ career (Borregoand
