Therewas no existing course in our curriculum to cover the topic of culture and design. Therefore, it isnecessary to develop a new

Although these surveys were done in the seventies, therestill remains a disproportionate amount of African-American college students in disciplines suchas education and other humanities13. Additionally, Brown characterizes engineering as a weedout and individualistic culture with an undergraduate curriculum designed for students not tosucceed4. The utilization of competitive grading schemes inhibits students' abilities to formcollaborative groups. Here, we see a culture at odds with that of African-American students.

As our global market changes to more competitive state of affairs, theco-op educators need to encourage more employers to develop quality co-op programs. Thiscan be done successfully with some innovative approach among high schools, universities andindustries. The high school students or teachers can go for work-based learning experiences inindustry and get credit during the summer.
