Work in progress - Developing engineers for 2020 - An innovative curricular and co-curricular approach

The E2020 Scholars Program is a National Science Foundation Scholarships in STEM (S-STEM) Program providing scholarships for cohorts of first-year and transfer undergraduate engineering students. The conceptual framework of the E2020 Scholars Program is designed to advance the academic and professional development of the scholar using the college's learning community infrastructure and building upon the aspirations and attributes of the National Academy of Engineering's (NAE) vision for the engineer of 2020. Programming includes a set of student development and learning opportunities consistent with this vision and includes curricular and co-curricular activities on the topics of leadership development, global awareness and understanding, systems thinking, and innovation.
