effective community engagement and mentoring partnership with all stakeholders for the production of increased number of URM STEM PhDs. Evaluate Diversity and Equity outcomes and reward departments that make highest impact in closing student equity, diversity or educational outcomes gaps.A mathematical diversity model that presents diversity impact as a linear function of theintentional actions or performances in Access (A), Retention Rate (Rr), Graduation Rate (G),Quality (Q), Climate (C), and Receptivity (Re) is presented with the corresponding diversitycontribution coefficients. The Engineering Research Center (ERC) is shown as a case exampleof a purposeful development and utilization of organizational resources to

selection based on the system’s natural frequency ofoscillations, the discretization of the plant, the effect of sampling period on the plant’s poles andzeros, and simulations of control designs in cascade (e.g., PID using Root Locus) and in full-state feedback configurations using pole placement formulas. In the course ELET 6342“Modern Control Systems Applications”, the discussion would instead move to the use of theLinear-Quadratic Regulator (LQR) formulation to design optimal controllers. For example,using equation (4) a meta-state q(t) is assembled and found to satisfy the system of equations
