Similarly,given the generally important role that faculty and teaching assistants (TAs) play in studentlearning as well as the importance of grades to undergraduates, the emergence of instructionalsupport and assessment as factors in the capstone design experience is also justified. Andfinally, the fourth factor, task value serves as an indication of students' motivation to participatein the ENGINE capstone experience. Task value draws from expectancy-value theory and hasbeen demonstrated to be a distinct contributor to academic engagement and effort [26, 27] aswell as educational and career aspirations [28].RQ2: Was there a difference in student perceptions

As a multidisciplinary field, researchers have contributed to engineering curriculum by developing drug delivery courses to engage engineering students with varied interest in medicine and the desire to pursue biomedical careers in pharmaceutical industries, research intensive institutions, and medical schools [21].

This is important for early computing undergraduates whomay need to see computing in a less depoliticized context that is clearly connected to the socialjustice to persist in the field. From an institutional and curricular standpoint, an electivedesignation reduces any illusory competition with other subject areas of computing. While late-career academics may have the authority among their department peers to bring such a courseinto the core, the elective designation supports early career academics who may not be supportedto make such a proposition. Thus, the elective designation settles for not exclusion from “core”computing curricular knowledge to be more
