, but those exemptions areunder pressure. This reduction in the number of credit hours in an engineering degree program iscausing much discussion as to whether the baccalaureate degree is adequate for professionalpractice in light of the expanding technology the students must learn. This question is verydifficult to answer until the body of knowledge for a discipline necessary for professionalpractice is developed.Table 1 Credit Hours in Engineering Degree Programs Credit Hours All Engineering Civil Engineering Civil Engineering Statistic Programs in Texas Programs in Texas Programs in SEC Mean 127.9 128.0

]. Additionally, this strong interest inbiomaterials is reflected economically. In 2019, the global market for biomaterials was estimatedto be worth $106.5 billion, and revenues from biomaterials are projected to increase to $348.4billion by 2027 [5]. To ensure these societal and economic demands for novel biomaterials aremet, we must prioritize educating diverse students about designing, engineering, and testingbiomaterials [6], [7].One way to meet this goal is through K-12 outreach. Outreach is an important activity forincreasing the number of students studying science, technology, engineering, and mathematics(STEM) at the university level [8], [9].
