paper is the preliminary investigation towards a larger work. The primary step indetermining whether first COOP impacts retention is to control for confounding factors like otherparts of curriculum, extra-curricular opportunities, non-academic support, and resourcesavailable, and even student’s self-motivation to persist in the degree. Future work will also focuson exploring students' COOP experiences and how they impact students' attitudes toward theirmajors and career goals. To achieve this, we plan to collect data on students' COOP experiencesand conduct surveys and interviews to understand their effects on students' perceptions. Byinterviewing first COOP students, it can be explored what encourages students to continue inengineering

To build a strongcommunity and provide long term benefits to participants, a robust social program wasdeveloped at both universities. These events were planned to bring visiting veterans into the hostuniversity veteran’s groups and provide support during the program.

A total of 7groups were thus formed. Before putting together their projects, student groups met with theinstructor at least once to discuss their project plans. They were alerted to small details that theymay have not been thinking about, or they were at least challenged to think about anyassumptions that they were planning to make and verify such assumptions if possible.

professionalism is a broad topic, it often includescommunication, project management, and teamwork, in relation to engineering projects asessential ingredients for project execution. Communication, in particular, is often sufficientlyintegrated within first and second-year engineering courses as oral and technical writingcomponents in preparation for the capstone experience [3]. In fact, communication was and stillis part of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) review criteria.Recently, ABET introduced a new set of criteria that included, “an ability to function effectivelyon a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusiveenvironment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives” [4
