Based Learning ProgramIntroductionIn this research-track paper, we seek to identify the relationship between engineering identity andbelonging and neurodiversity in a co-op based program. Neurodivergent characteristics, such asattention to detail, creativity, and pattern recognition, align well with careers in STEM (Science,Technology, Engineering, Mathematics), yet retention of neurodivergent students withinengineering programs is lower than neurotypical students [1]. Neurodivergent students whograduate or attempt to enter the workforce in a STEM discipline face bias and decreased successrates in job attainment after graduation [2]. By exploring neurodiverse engineering students’engineering identity and sense of belonging in a co-op based

in technology, stemming from designers' perspectives, can harm marginalizedpopulations, but integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) principles in engineeringeducation can address these issues [2]. One study focusing on systems engineering used semi-structured interviews with 15 professionals to explore how DEI principles can be embedded ineducation. The value of activities that go beyond technical skills is emphasized, encouragingstudents to reflect on broader social and professional contexts. Students can develop skills torecognize and address biases in engineering practices by allowing them to engage withprofessionals from varied backgrounds. Another study argues that improving engineering student outcomes requires

A stated need of the agencyfunding this effort was to improve the employability of graduating students on “day one,”providing skill training that would allow the new students to contribute meaningfully and quicklyupon hire, minimizing onboarding training needed. As practices and theories used in engineeringand industry change rapidly as new manufacturing technologies develop, micro-credentialpathways are set to emerge as an agile and rapid way to address these skill gaps as they emergefor graduating and mature workers.
