Nation’s Urban WaterInfrastructure (ReNUWIt). Participants to date have been 69% female and 39% from historicallyunderrepresented racial or ethnic groups. Outcomes include participant skill-building,development of researcher identity, pursuit of graduate school, and pursuit of careers in STEM.Assessments include pre- and post-surveys (quantitative and qualitative), as well as longitudinaltracking of participants (n=97 over 7 years). Assessment results suggest this multi-campus siteachieves participant-level and program-level impacts commensurate with those attained bysingle-campus REU Sites.IntroductionEngaging undergraduates in authentic science and engineering research experiences is widelyaccepted as a promising practice for promoting

. Almost all IEP assessments are summative. The net assessment work has Assessment and increased with IEP but a number of novel tools have been developed for the feedback evaluation of individual contribution to IEP project work. Teaching and learning support and training is provided both through the Teaching and central IEP and through the College. Also the University has several programs learning support such as UCL Arena and UCL: Changemaker that supports teaching and learning and collaborations in these areas. Career tracks are divided into an academic track, an education-focused track Reward and and a research track. University

break apurposeful life. Practiced effectively, they augment the virtues distinctive to an individual, thusgrowing character and agency for the better good. Given the centrality of technology today,engineering students will help shape our future, significantly. Yet often they lack theprofessional skillset to reach the greatest promise in their careers and as citizens. How canprofessional skills be developed through experiential practice? Blurring the line between artand science offers one route via creative engagement: playing in a conductorless orchestrawhere students practice leadership, teamwork, and communication week-in and week-out. Theonly conductorless orchestra in the world composed of engineers currently resides at OlinCollege of

on the country and the world sometimes.” The hydraulic fracturing activity helped thisstudent understand the potential implications of his future career and this was an importantoutcome since he planned to pursue employment in the oil industry.The narrow technical focus of individual courses in the engineering curriculum can obscureconnections between, and implications of, engineering concepts. One student described thatSustainable Energy as a whole course supported the broader integration of engineering conceptsand their practical applications. It helps put all the other classes into the wider focus and give more perspective… It helps us see the connections between everything, and Sustainable Energy definitely helps with that.An

solving sessions or other active learning during the weeks with noexam. The common exam times in this course model also reduce the total amount of time thatinstructors must spend developing new exams (by a factor of two if there are two coursesections).Implementation by early career faculty members (comments by Dr. Roccabianca). Thesuccessful implementation of the new assessment model requires some significant adjustmentsnot only by the students, as discussed above, but also by the instructor. For example, crafting anew exam during most weeks requires the instructor to invest a significant amount of time andenergy throughout the semester. Secondly, the significant reduction of lecture time means theinstructor must restructure much of the class
