for first-year studentsinfluence the cultivation of teamwork skills. According to the survey results, 94% of theparticipants found team projects with other in-class collaborative activities to be the mostbeneficial in developing teamwork skills and a significant number of students attributed theirteam success to how effectively they distributed the tasks among team members.Therefore, this study aims to contribute to the broader research on teamwork assessments byproviding an understanding of team dynamics and interdisciplinary learning in the context ofteam-based computational modeling projects. The study explores how BiomedicalEngineering graduate students utilize their model-based reasoning skills through effectivecollaboration and social

collaborative work between researchers with expertise inmental health and those from other disciplines (such as STEM disciplines) in order to appropriatelycommunicate contextualized findings about mental health.Based on our findings, out of 616 filtered publications focused on graduate students' mental health,23 publications were literature reviews. However, among those, none focused explicitly on theexperiences of marginalized students in STEM. This finding here underscores one benefit of thestructured approach for identifying articles as part of a formal scoping literature process:highlighting areas yet to be explored. The review process revealed an opportunity for greatermethodological diversity in mental health research among graduate students

This papermay also be a guide to current and future NRT programs to help them pursue elements of thetraineeship that are most effective.IntroductionAcademic departments often work in silos, thus giving fewer opportunities for graduate studentsand faculty from different departments to interact and for graduate students to gain the skillsneeded to do interdisciplinary research. Interdisciplinary research and collaboration have severalbenefits such as addressing complex research questions and social problems and having a moreproductive team [1] [2].

To that end, many universities haveactively collaborated with the industry, developed internship course in their curriculum, and evenmade internship a prerequisite for graduation. Internships programs in construction has been explored by a plethora of existing studies.These studies can mainly be categorized into three topics: introduction of the internship classstructure in a specific program, analysis of the role of internships on students learning, andevaluation of the effectiveness and outcomes of internship programs.

Retention rates amongcollege students are frequently employed as a metric for gauging institutional accountability andsuccess. Moreover, these rates are increasingly utilized as a basis for allocating resources.Gaining insights into the factors that influence college student retention has become imperativefor institutions of higher education. The ongoing issue of low graduation rates among students inengineering programs remains a significant cause for concern within the higher educationlandscape.

The generalconclusion of this body of literature is correlational, that is, the greater the students’ engagementin curricular and co-curricular activities on campus, the greater their level of cognitive andpsychosocial development. For this reason, student engagement has been well recognized as apredictor of student learning and an important factor of student success [5, 25, 26].

injury [5-8]. A variety of mental conditions arealso variously included under the umbrella of ND, including anxiety and depression [5]. Someresearch explores specific conditions, while other research has included ND students under theterm ‘non-visible disabilities’ [9] The underdiagnosis of conditions like ADHD among femaleshas been documented [10-11], so individuals may identify as ND without a formal medicaldiagnosis. Mirfin-Veitch et al. [6] state that “neurodiversity is not a diagnosis, rather it is a broadterm used to encompass a wide range of specific, non-specific, hidden and/or undetermineddiagnoses” (p. ii). The framing for this study aligns with this definition.Neurodivergent students may differ from their NT peers in various
