Soltani et al.’s study revealed that engineering programs that aresponsored by industry partners displayed a closer match between the requirements of employersand the interests of students. In programs where industry partners sponsored internships, studentshad a chance to develop skills required to find jobs, academics developed closer links to theindustry, and employers had a chance to develop and retain professionals in their businesses.

Given the extremely low 4-yeargraduation rate for students who start their academic careers in pre-calculus, there is also clear support fordevelopment of 5-year curriculum plans for this group of students, which at UK PCOE makes up about one-fourth of the overall incoming freshman class each year, and nearly 35% of URM and first-generationstudents. Finally, the indicators from Table 13 can be used for early identification of students who may havea higher chance of academic success in fields outside of engineering, to make sure they are either fullycommitted to pursuing an academic career in engineering or provided with good information for consideringalternative career directions.References[1] U.

Forexample, the instructor of Section 1 relied heavily on in-class Java programming to drivetheoretical discussions, while Section 2’s instructor used visualizations to explain the sameconcepts.

In India, where manyengineering students specialize in software development, C++ is taught alongside data structuresand algorithms, helping students build strong computational problem-solving skills applicable toengineering simulations [4]. These examples highlight C++’s continued relevance across globalengineering disciplines and how this course can be tailored to regional industry needs.In a globalized engineering environment, critical thinking and adaptable problem-solvingstrategies are
