Through a Course Redesign InitiativeBackgroundThere have been myriad studies that have examined factors that contribute to student retention inengineering programs. These studies have helped guide efforts in implementing effectivestrategies to increase student retention, persistence, and degree completion. Two common themesrelated to engineering retention that have emerged from the literature are individual andinstitutional factors. Individual factors can be summed up as aptitude, pre-college preparation,academic performance, affective factors, personality traits, and satisfaction; while institutionalfactors include academic engagement, academic and career advising, environmental and socialdynamics, and climate

Undergraduate Engineering Outreach 1MotivationWhen undergraduate engineering students participate in various forms of community outreachthrough an ambassador-style group, the mission is often to promote engineering and engineering-related careers to K-12 students and their families, and increase interest in engineering amonghistorically underserved populations. Yet, the preparation and delivery of outreach activities mayalso impact the undergraduate students. In this Work in Progress paper we present the earlyfindings of a project seeking to identify common practices among university-based, ambassadorprograms, with a view to informing communities of researchers and practitioners. We exploredthree questions [1]: (1) What similarities and differences are

All of our undergrads are great role models, and this is a chance to introduce K-12 students to technical areas and careers that they might have not considered. It is also an exercisein problem-based learning. Undergrads must decide what they need to learn, then figure out how tolearn it and then how to teach the material. Our undergraduate students also have the opportunity topractice communication skills with people who possess little technical knowledge. In addition, theyalso have to work in a group setting, towards a common goal and they have to critically assess theirown performance, as well as the performance of others.The project has the following
