welfarehas also become critical to ensure solutions being developed not only support end users but alsoaddress the problem as identified by end users [2], [5]. Moreover, beyond applying the technicalknowledge gained in the coursework, the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE)highlighted that graduating engineering students must know how to “work as part of teams,communicate well, and understand the economic, social, environment, and international contextof their professional activities” [6, p.1]. Stemming from this point is the need to instill societalperspectives into graduating engineering students so they holistically understand the impact oftheir products locally and globally [7].With the scope of engineering expanding past the

The Minor will be highly informed by best practices for user-centered design,introducing opportunities for self-reflection, trial and error, and action-taking through a student-centered project-based learning approach that recognizes that students are in transition toadulthood. A robust stakeholder engagement process will be undertaken to align activities withgoals, involving three undergraduate mentors per year as co-designers and co-facilitators.Although the Minor will be open to all students with basic qualifications, unlike traditional minorsthat require

The CLOs may need to be specifically revised to promote student awareness andpractice of communication and teamwork through computation.The skills listed in Figure 2 were emphasized during the ideation and development of thesecourses, and the survey results suggest that they were also communicated to most students. Notethat we are not examining student competency here, but rather focusing on their experience ofthe program. These data establish a meaningful baseline by showing that most students saw astrong connection between the Engineering+ coursework and the key skills emphasized by thecurriculum designers.

Unsurprisingly, societal pressures and work-family conflicts experienced bywomen students in face of choice goals exist across geographical boundaries (e.g., in Japan, [38];in Thailand [62]; and in Canada [50]).Similarly, different cultural backgrounds enable students to develop cultural resources withintheir communities and apply these resources to their university experience [73]. Familial capitalsupports marginalized students to pursue humanitarian engineering through encouraging storiesand role models [74]. First-generation students also gain funds of knowledge from their familiesand communities regarding tinkering, perspective taking, and reading people [75

degree program. Their difficultiesmay be due either to a lack of preparedness for previous classes (stemming from their technicalcollege or from Clemson itself) or to not fully understanding what would be asked of themwithin the course before registration. In addition, they share struggles relating to their Clemsonprofessors. Positive impacts come from their experience at Clemson and their direct SPECTRAinvolvement. Examples of these benefits include building skills, participating in undergraduateresearch, creating and having a community with fellow students, and developing their identitiesas engineers and computer scientists. Undergraduate research is a highly valued aspect of theSPECTRA program. The students work closely with graduate students
