The impetus for creating these strong ties is linked to this educator’s desire to improvefuture student cooperative work assignments, and increase both after-graduation employmentopportunities and industrial research project assignments. Over the past two years, industrialpartnerships have been established with two leaders in the industrial control systems market,Siemens Energy and Automation Corporation and Cutler-Hammer Corporation.2 3 Partnershipshave been established with several other smaller players as well. Each of these companies hascommitted itself to assisting Northeastern University’s School of Engineering Technology inachieving its goal of becoming a

NACADA,the National Academic Advising Association, strongly believes and supports the notion that “Advisingis Teaching” and critical to student success and retention. The College of Engineering First YearAdvising Program developed strategic ways of providing both informational and developmentaladvising to more than 700 freshmen per year across all seven engineering disciplines.Through group advising and the utilization of technology, the First Year Advising Program incorporatesa developmental advising program to meet student’s diverse learning styles and to increase therelationship between advisor and advisee.

industry drives an increasingly diverse populationin terms of majors, interests, and experiences towards introductory and advanced courses (Foster, et al., 2018;Erdil, et al., 2019). A thoughtfully-designed survey course can balance the needs of various subgroups andrealize the potential to influence students’ attitudes and beliefs, develop career intentions, and teach coreconcepts.A first-year integrated college curriculum has been a common practice across many engineering and sciencedisciplines for years (Cordes, et al., 1997; Bazylak & Wild, 2007). In these approaches for common curriculumdesign, all those first-year students admitted to programs of study in engineering, technology, applied sciencesand other related fields are offered
courses to fulfill the general education component of their curriculum. Inthis day and age where technology plays an integral role in people’s daily lives, it seems odd that,although engineering students are required to take almost a third of their courses on non-engineering topics, the liberal arts students are not required to take any engineering or technology-oriented courses. Engineering courses are deemed too technical for the non-engineers to take. Atsuch colleges, the freshman-writing course is considered to be a venue to introduce youngstudents to a mature level of analytical reading, thinking, discussion, and writing. A newexperiment is being developed to make available to both engineering and non-engineering studentsa technical module
