. The Integrative GraduateEducation Research and Traineeship on Magnetic and Nanostructured Materials (IGERT-MNM)is a collaboration between Purdue University, Cornell University, and Norfolk State Universityto train interdisciplinary science and engineering doctoral students for future roles as leaders inthe materials science and engineering fields. As part of this socialization into future careers,students proceed through a variety of modules. This paper specifically covers student learning ina pedagogy module, which introduces students to best practices in teaching and learning.Graduate student reflections on the development of high-school level student and teacher scienceand engineering activities were analyzed via thematic coding methods in

Engage students to do research on an existing engineering case study and present it to the class for discussion. This method helps both in motivating and involving students to learn the subject well as it applies to real-world. It also helps to relate design with current and contemporary issues and how the overall design of a component or a system impacts the society as a whole. This is one of the most powerful methods of innovative instructions. 5. Bring industry speakers to make presentations on a

the emerging nexus ofexascale computing, quantum computing and AI is the materials genome initiative (MGI) [7]. InMGI, informatics is applied to design new materials significantly faster than the conventionaltrial-and-error approach, thereby revolutionizing clean energy, national security and humanwelfare. Recognizing the need for developing cyberinfrastructure for MGI, U.S. Department ofEnergy (DOE) has established computational materials science (CMS) centers. One of the firstCMS centers is MAGICS (Materials Genome Innovation for Computational Software) at USC.MAGICS has developed a suite of open-source software for use by a broad community of notonly materials scientists but also physicists, chemists, biologists and engineers [8-13

ND EPSCoR is planning to conduct four bridge camps during the summer of 2020and will continue to refine the camp and track participants throughout their academic careers. Insubsequent research, in an effort to determine the overall impact of these camps, ND EPSCoRwill compare the college matriculation rates of the bridge camp participants to the collegematriculation rates of all AI high school graduates in ND.AcknowledgmentsThe development and implementation of the ND EPSCoR NATURE bridge camp was madepossible through funding provided by NSF

This is at best only a partial solution to theproblem.
