(2022). This paper proposed integrating security-related concepts tailored for next-generation communication into existing Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE)curricula. This strategic integration aims to position security considerations as afoundational prerequisite in the design phase of any system. In alignment with thisvision, the research introduces an innovative, interactive, and visualized hands-onmodule designed to seamlessly integrate into the current curriculum. Additionally,this module is a comprehensive educational tool

As the first course students encounter in their academicjourney, this exploratory class is designed to help them reflect on their interests, capabilities, andaspirations while deciding if a career in engineering technology aligns with their goals.For many students, this course serves as their initial exposure to the field, particularly for thosewho may lack prior knowledge or role models to guide them in selecting a college major. Thecourse objectives, listed in Table 1, reflect an integrated approach to student development,focusing on industry engagement, career preparation, professional resources, teamwork, andcommunication skills.Table 1.

. Practitioners, developers, andresearchers have identified the need for an engineering-specific definition and approach toleadership development and, therefore, assessment [6], [7]. Providing a transferable frameworkwith consistent metrics would enable diverse programs to leverage a shared assessment of theleadership skills developed across their programs. Furthermore, aligning the assessment withemerging models of EL development could support an integrated and prepared engineeringworkforce.Considering the growth in undergraduate engineering leadership development programs and thevital role that feedback plays in developing engineering students’ professional skills, ouroverarching research goal is to develop a survey instrument that: • Assesses

BME programs, recent work in BME education has highlighted examples of theintegration of ethics as a spine for BME curriculum [21]. Despite the progress for design andethics as curricular “spines” in BME, only a few works in progress exist (e.g., [22]) to considerhow to incorporate health equity across multiple levels of courses within BME curriculum.Combined, the lack of existing models for incorporating health equity into BME curriculumalongside the timely call to action for BME to advance health equity [6] presents an urgentopportunity to expand our understanding of effective practices for integrating health equity intoBME curriculum.We aim to contribute to this gap in literature through sharing insights from a collaborativeautoethnography

Due toperiodic faculty turnover, course assessment also serves as a means of maintaining coursecontinuity. At the course-level, we assess course outcomes annually using a formal writtenassessment called a Course Assessment Report. Effective course assessment considers allrelevant information to identify strengths and weaknesses in each course. Where appropriate,these areas for improvement are used as the basis for well-coordinated changes to courseoutcomes, course content, or course processes. Effective course assessment is an
