scholar Sunder [5], has looked at applying the Lean management framework in highereducation. He emphasized the importance of finding new and improved ways of teaching,redesigning institutional infrastructure, and processes to survive and compete in highereducation. He explains that practical knowledge brings more value to students’ learning andfuture work. The main types of waste in education are waiting and inventory [6]. © American Society for Engineering Education, 2023 2023 ASEE Midwest Section ConferenceResults and DiscussionThe Lean management framework has five steps: Identify value, Map Value Stream, Create flow,Establish pull, and continuous improvement [7].

variations on the following: “increased incidence of storms due to global warmingimpact infrastructure resiliency” and “changes in climate could impact water quality in sourcewaters.” These more detailed responses show that the guided synthesis in-class activities helpedstudents to contextualize the design factors to a specific case study in greater detail than prior toclass. Based on instructor evaluation of Individual Analysis #2, students meeting expectationschanged from 42 % to 33 % of the class (different denominators, 3 students did not complete thepost-class survey) and students exceeding expectations increased from 29% to 44%.After class activities, almost all students were able to articulate at least 2 design factors withineach category as

energy-efficient computing to high-performance computerarchitecture and storage systems. S-STEM scholars can also apply for the REU program, and atleast one S-STEM scholar has been selected to join the summer REU in computing systems.Leveraging Existing Infrastructure: In addition to these project activities, the S-STEM projectalso leverage the existing student success programs at the Speed School of Engineering and theUniversity of Louisville to empower S-STEM scholars. For example, UofL provides REACH(Resources for Academic Achievement), a centralized academic support unit to support academicsuccess and retention of undergraduate students. REACH provides free and structured studysessions, regular and online tutoring, peer mentoring, coding
