The reality of the current academic climate, in particular faced with drops in enrollment over the next decade as a result from drops in birth rates, is forcing hard choices for small programs such as the Modeling & Simulation engineering (M&SE) program at Old Dominion University (ODU). The quality of the program and its benefit to its constituents do not offset the impracticality of continuing such programs. Two primary options for such programs are closure or consolidation. ODU decided on the latter course of action for M&SE. Due to the computational nature of the existing program, a decision was made to place M&SE as a major under the computerengineering degree. This paper presents the justification for this decision and the resulting curriculum and the hard decisions made to allow it to fit under computerengineering. A discussion of feedback from constituents such as the industrial advisory board for the existing M&SE program is included.

Research has demonstrated the positive influence of Undergraduate Research Experience (URE) programs in Science, Technology, engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) on students' educational journey and their development as scientists, ultimately aiding them in making informed career choices. However, traditionally, URE programs have primarily targeted junior and senior students who already possess disciplinary knowledge and exhibit a strong inclination to persist in STEM fields. This study aims to examine the effects of involving freshmen in the Industry-Research Inclusion in STEM Education (I-RISE) program, specifically in the disciplines of electrical engineering (EE) and computer science (CS), on student retention. The I-RISE program integrated research opportunities for undergraduate students with mentorship activities, facilitating the acquisition of relevant skills in applied computing and engineering techniques, research methodologies, and the attainment of internships. Analyzing the retention rates of three distinct cohorts of I-RISE participants over a span of three years revealed significantly higher retention rates compared to students who did not partake in the I-RISE program.

Advancements in neuromorphic computing have given an impetus to the development of systems with adaptive behavior,dynamic responses,and energy efficiency *** charge-based or emerging memory technologies such as memristors have been developed to emulate synaptic plasticity,replicating the key functionality of neurons—integrating diverse presynaptic inputs to fire electrical impulses—has remained *** this study,we developed reconfigurable metal-oxide-semiconductor capacitors(MOSCaps)based on hafnium diselenide(HfSe2).The proposed devices exhibit(1)optoelectronic synaptic features and perform separate stimulus-associated learning,indicating considerable adaptive neuron emulation,(2)dual light-enabled charge-trapping and memcapacitive behavior within the same MOSCap device,whose threshold voltage and capacitance vary based on the light intensity across the visible spectrum,(3)memcapacitor volatility tuning based on the biasing conditions,enabling the transition from volatile light sensing to non-volatile optical data *** reconfigurability and multifunctionality of MOSCap were used to integrate the device into a leaky integrate-and-fire neuron model within a spiking neural network to dynamically adjust firing patterns based on light stimuli and detect exoplanets through variations in light intensity.
