It introduces concepts and tools for engineering design process including fundamentalengineering content, project management, teamwork, and engineering ethics. Algorithmic thinkingusing multiple computational tools like LabVIEW and Python are also a significant part of coursecontent. Every fall semester, about 1300-1500 students enroll in the course distributed into 24-28sections, with an average class size of 40-72 students. At the beginning of the semester students areassigned into teams of size 3-4 based on several factors like prior experiences, knowledge, anddemographics. Using a flipped-classroom setup, the instructors administer the same in-classactivities, quizzes, homeworks, and exams across all

I-designated courses are all sophomore and first-semesterjunior level courses, while the R-designated courses are second-semester junior level courses.Those SOs that can be more challenging to assess in typical lecture courses, namely SO 2(design), SO 3 (communications), SO 4 (ethics and professional responsibility) and SO 5(teamwork), were concentrated for assessment in courses with design projects (Introduction

For some undergraduates, it was their first opportunity to consider how their pursuitof a STEM degree related to their overall life goals. Through the legacy statement exercise, theresearch fellows are provided space to imagine a future for themselves and community members.Here is a quote taken from a computer science major that expressed a common sentiment:“I want to be a champion for my community and utilize the intersection between ethics andcomputing technology to bring about equity for them. I would want to begin a cycle of givingand inspire others to use their power and influence to bring about change too.”Fellows
