hone their ability to workon design projects, to work on teams, to communicate effectively, to manage resources, and towork on complex projects. The evaluations of the effectiveness of the course, with respect to theaforementioned abilities, indicate that these changes to the course certainly enhanced thecapstone design experience for the students. The role of practitioners as clients / mentors wasdiscussed and seen to be beneficial. They served in important supplementary roles to the facultyadvisors and the course instructor.REFERENCES1 ABET.

results reported herein suggest that implementing PBL is advantageous, at least on thetime-scale of students’ immediate participation in the course, it is also necessary to evaluate howstudents’ engagement in PBL impacts their future coursework. Moreover, as PBL continues togain traction in engineering education, it will become necessary to determine the extent to whichit prepares students for professional practice. If PBL can implemented such that it shrinks thegap between students’ conception of school knowledge and professional knowledge, it is likelythat implementing PBL more broadly can better equip students for careers in engineering.ReferencesAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).

, Technology and Computer Science course2.Without a doubt, the introduction of early intervention programs and application-orientedfreshman engineering courses are significant steps toward increasing student retention,motivation and success in engineering. That said, the correlation between retention rates andthe inability of incoming students to progress through the required calculus sequence cannot beignored. This problem is not unique to WSU, and in recent years has received substantialattention in the engineering education literature10-16. The general consensus thus far is that thetraditional approach of teaching students the required mathematical theory simply as aprerequisite to subsequent engineering application is unsatisfactory, and that a
ourproposition that statics is a very important course in the “engineering design of anengineer.” Thus it is important that further study be undertaken on this topic. Furtherstudy is required to identify the most successful teaching strategies for increasingstudents’ knowledge about and enthusiasm for engineering as a career, and the mostsuccessful strategies for ensuring future success as an engineer. 1 Burke, R., and M.

important software engineering concepts, suchas iterative and incremental development (IID) 9, with programming. As Reichlmayr 10 explains,at the Rochester Institute of Technology, IID is taught to sophomore computer science and ECEstudents, who have already learned programming. The approach proposed here has been usedsuccessfully, as evidenced by student, peer, and self assessments, to teach a large and diversegroup of Civil, Chemical, Electrical & Computer, and Mechanical Engineering students.2.

study engineering. This has led to the development of problem-based freshman engineering courses2,4-9, including the EGR 190 Fundamentals of Engineeringcourse here at WSU. Such courses are typically designed to give students a broad, application-based introduction to the various engineering disciplines, so that they can begin to appreciatewhy they must endure the rigor of their subsequent engineering curricula. As might be expected,this can have a significant impact on early retention of incoming students. For example,researchers at Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne have recently publishedquantitative data directly relating increased retention to enrollment in their ETCS 101Introduction to Engineering, Technology and Computer
