Yet, women hold only 12% of the scienceand engineering jobs in business and industry. Unfortunately, it is evident that trying tointerest students in STEM careers is not easy. Most of these programs are excellentprograms. However, since these programs are usually of short duration, evaluation of theprograms and specific components are difficult, and reports of evaluation efforts arelimited. Thus, it is difficult to know what works and what doesn’t work, and what thebest practices that should be replicated

They weighed the prototypes, measured the max deflection at failure,and recorded the maximum weight their prototype held before failing to calculate the design’sactual factor of safety. This project satisfied the institutional outcome for physical prototypingand allowed the students to put in practice all the design principles that were presentedthroughout the course. Since there was not a third mid-term exam, this project also helped assessthe lesson outcomes after the second mid-term exam, including flexural stress, second momentof area, beam deflection, downselection, and modeling and prototyping.For the

It is likely that many programs are not able to add new courses to address theGrand Challenges [7] so other approaches might be helpful. For example, institutions mightconsider the value of co-locating engineering and humanities programs in the same department[13], developing electives that exist at the intersection of the humanities and engineeringprograms [11] and expanding the scope of environmental engineering graduate programs [7],which are often centered on narrow research (thesis) topics.
