take multiple discipline-specific engineering courses intheir initial semester. Discovering a major is not a good fit often results in transfer studentsleaving engineering or significantly lengthening time to degree completion. To promote students’confidence in their major choice, students will view a video introducing engineering majorsavailable at Mississippi State University. The BETS course will include additional pertinentinformation for new transfer students. Topics for BETS Transitions include: • How to use the CANVAS course – A quick how-to video to highlight the functions of the course • Choosing an Engineering Major – Engaging video(s) to introduce engineering majors • Orientation – Information about orientation

It also does not reflect the capacity or talent of those more than 90,000underrepresented people who earned S&E doctorate degrees between 2005 and 2015 in the U.S.[11]. This trend led Congress to allow eligible agencies to use 3 percent of their small businessgrant budget set aside for administrative purposes to support underserved groups under theSBIR/STTR Reauthorization Act of 2011. As result, many agencies use this fund for outreach tounderserved groups.The private sector tells a similar story.

They need to be supplemented with human initiatives, creative innovations, and prompt action, all based on values that are grounded in pursuit of the common good through principles upholding non-hierarchical and democratic processes, personal courage, and a shared commitment to helping others—othercentredness instead of self-centredness. These strategies need to proceed from recognition that people on the ground are invaluable sources of local knowledge, wisdom and insight, which should be called upon for problem solving and new knowledge creation.

One of the first topics of discussionin a System Dynamics or Vibrations course usually involves lumping elements of continuousmechanical systems such that their total inertia, stiffness, and damping can be represented asmass, spring, and damper elements, respectively. Distributed-parameter models involve partialdifferential equations (PDEs), which are significantly more difficult to solve than the ordinarydifferential equations (ODEs) associated with lumped-parameter models. The mathematicalcomplexity of distributed-parameter models, however, allows for the motion of the system to bedetermined at any location and at any time.

This way,when a student misses a class or needs to review something that he or she didn’t fullyunderstand, they can watch the back-up video(s).2) The author is considering having students do the video tutorials as homework prior to classand then doing the independent portions of the homework in the classroom.

The cohortstructure allows for close relationships to form, combatting the social isolation that historicallymarginalized students may feel in CS classes. Peer mentoring benefits students by offeringfurther academic, social, and professional development support within the program. Project-based learning provides strong ties to students’ major area(s) of study (primarily biology andbiochemistry) and supports students’ future success in fields that are becoming increasingly data-driven.1 Finally, the minor program courses focus
