persevering in engineering [11], [20].The development of identity is a social process. People’s thoughts and behaviors are shapedthrough relationships and reflected appraisals with others [4], [16], [21]. Identities are furtherderived through associations, affiliations, and identifications with groups [17], [22]. Tonso [23]observes that identity development is an enculturated process where identities are acquiredthrough "community-based interactions" and Beam et al. [20] concur that social contexts affectidentity. In engineering education, situated learning is central to identity development [23].Therefore, this social process of identity development can be realized through the culture of anengineering program. Cultivating a culture of doing

Paper ID #29338CAREER: Actualizing Latent Diversity in Undergraduate EngineeringEducationDr. Allison Godwin, Purdue University at West Lafayette Allison Godwin, Ph.D. is an Assistant Professor of Engineering Education at Purdue University. Her research focuses what factors influence diverse students to choose engineering and stay in engineering through their careers and how different experiences within the practice and culture of engineering fos- ter or hinder belongingness and identity development. Dr. Godwin graduated from Clemson University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Ph.D. in Engineering and Science

, where she directs the Vir- ginia Tech Engineering Communications Center (VTECC). Her research focuses on communication in engineering design, interdisciplinary communication and collaboration, design education, and gender in engineering. She was awarded a CAREER grant from the National Science Foundation to study expert teaching in capstone design courses, and is co-PI on numerous NSF grants exploring communication, design, and identity in engineering. Drawing on theories of situated learning and identity development, her work includes studies on the teaching and learning of communication, effective teaching practices in design education, the effects of differing design pedagogies on retention and motivation, the

This work was guided by educators who have already established successfulinnovation and entrepreneurship programs for physics students, e.g. the Scienceworks physicsentrepreneurship bachelor’s degree program at Carthage College, the physics entrepreneurshipmaster’s (PEP) program at Case Western University, and the engineering and applied physicsprograms at Kettering University. The group’s work was also guided by an Industry AdvisoryBoard comprised of physicists with extensive experience as entrepreneurs and in private sectorcompanies.Project activity was roughly organized along three central axes: developing and disseminatingPIE curricular materials

Pursuing Engineering and EngineeringTechnology Degrees,” led by Principal Investigator Dr. Anthony W. Dean, is a five-year grant atthe end of its second year. To date, 20 academically successful students with financial need havebenefitted from this program. Students in the Old Dominion Batten College of Engineering andTechnology are eligible for this program. This project provides eligible students with ascholarship and academic/student success experiences designed to enhance their workforcereadiness and develop their engineering identity. By the end of the project, a total of 70scholarships will be awarded. The G.I. Bill has long provided educational benefits to servicemembers who are returning to education.

Further, “early exposure to computer science” isprovided in the seminars and program events.Research associated with the program focuses on two main questions: 1) How andto what extent do the program features contribute to the development of self-efficacy, CS/M identity, and sense of belonging? and 2) How does early exposureto computer science through coursework and career awareness affect theexperience of CS/M Scholars? These questions are investigated through focusgroup interviews and surveys of the CS/M Scholars and a comparison group.IntroductionIn this paper we discuss the CS/M (Computer Science/Math) Scholars Program at WesternWashington University.
