Prior to creating the ME program, we taught these courses to amixture of MET, Applied Technology, and Manufacturing option students where the emphasiswas given to product development and completion of a small production run. With thedevelopment of the new ME program, we decided to teach these classes with a combination ofME and MET students and take advantage of the strong research and development approach. Wedesigned the stronger R&D approach to expose the MET students to applications of the theoriestaught to the ME students. On the other hand, we expose the ME students to the hands-on shopskills involved in

somethingdifferent about the engineering experience for female and male students.The gap in high school preparation in math and science between males and females is closing,but despite similar coursework, female students still lag significantly behind males inengineering. Margolis and Fisher (2002) speculate that the pre-college “tinkering” that is socommon amongst male pre-engineering students leads to a greater comfort level in collegecourses. Many female students do not have this “tinkering” experience, and develop a drop inself confidence in laboratory classes. According to McIlwee and Robinson (1992), by not sharingthe “culture of the tinkerer” the female students are placed at a disadvantage, and this furtherundermines their confidence in their

For example, suppose that a program wishes to teach students how to design laboratoryexperiments. The program could teach this in one particular laboratory course. Or the programcould offer two or three laboratory courses that focus on different particular subdisciplines in thefield, and teach students in each of these courses how to design experiments.
