designdecisions are better understood. Today, data is more easily accessible and possible to assembleand analyze, including information such as water, energy, and carbon footprints of actions (e.g.,drive vs. fly) and material choices (e.g., aluminum vs. plastic). Once students are armed withknowledge of environmental impacts of engineering, via modules like the one we developed,they are more likely to be motivated towards action [10]. As such, students will be betterprepared to make environmental and ethical decisions which will meet the needs of the NSPECode of Ethics, particularly code III, 2d [1]. Furthermore, students who learn about sustainabilityand LCA better understand how each topic will play a role in their future careers [11].Future assessment

Diversity
: Broadening Students’ Self-Knowledge and Self-Development in an Introductory Engineering Design CourseObjectives:1. To offer engineering students practical ideas and resources to improve their self-awareness, self- development, and overall academic achievement, introduce college students to various engineering opportunities available, and inspire them to explore and engage in these opportunities.2. To prepare students as future engineers ready to work in an increasingly diverse and inclusive society by introducing them to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) and Engineering Ethics Modules.Implementation: The concept of broadening students' self-knowledge and self-development is

engineering education research culture, and applications of operations research in an education context. 14th Annual First-Year Engineering Experience (FYEE) Conference: University of Tennessee in Knoxville, Tennessee Jul 30Workshop 1 – Making Patterns, Breaking Patterns – Ethnographic systems mapping and analysis ofengineering education groupsSystems thinking is an essential skill for engineers in an increasingly complex world. Engineers must beable to see beyond applied science and mathematics to the social, political, economic, ethical,environmental, and even interpersonal forces acting on any problem in order to arrive at optimalsolutions. As we endeavor to “expand student success” by helping

technical presentation and writing skills,the engineering design process and design thinking, ethics and stakeholder impact,undergraduate and graduate opportunities, and more. Students will also present on their weeklylab activities or project milestone updates and receive feedback. Faculty provide guidance on theenhanced career development assignments, which now include a resume, cover letter, LinkedInprofile, and a digital portfolio. The cover letter and portfolio assignments are new for the 2022-2023 academic year and the design and implementation are described below.Module Creation and ImplementationImplementation of these new career development and professional skill modules is part of alarge-scale effort driven by faculty and administrators
