Future workincludes investigating the different phases that make up the design process to evaluate students’perception of that phase, collecting similar data sets from future sophomores’ class andcollaboration with faculty from other departments to gage their student’s reception of thismodule. Furthermore, an entrepreneurial minded learning approach will also be explored. Seemore details on the card: https://engineeringunleashed.com/card/3984.References [1] L. L.

PedagogyA recently piloted multi-disciplinary introduction to engineering course features not only asampling of engineering majors, disciplines, and sub disciplines, but also aims to develop themindsets and skills of well-rounded engineering students. Three faculty members from threeunique engineering disciplines taught the course in a round-robin format; small cohorts ofstudents rotated through one-month modules with each faculty. Modules focused on introducingthe opportunities associated with each engineering major offered at the college and began toform the habits of mind and communication associated with all engineering disciplines.Furthermore, the faculty brought their own liberal arts interests in philosophy, science-fiction,theology, and

students joining a department. Community Cultural Wealth (CCW) was created with Communities of Color in mind to highlight the multitude of assets students of color possess. CCW uses familial, linguistic, aspirational, resistant, navigational, and social capital to describe students’ strengths in and out of the classroom. These capitals appear in multiple settings and from many different sources. They also can be depicted simultaneously as a single capital cannot describe some strengths. For example, a role model for a student may provide both aspirational and navigational capitals simultaneously as they aid a student through the college experience.

This study underscores the importance of integrating mindfulness and well-being into engineering education, fostering not only technical proficiency but also mental resilience and emotional intelligence in future professionals. Moving ahead, we would develop an application for wireless heart pulse data measurement for a broader reach.
