disabilities.Empathy, a trait that is less frequent in those with high analytical abilities like engineers, mayplay a role in ‘othering’ STEM students with disabilities and reluctance to provideaccommodations [41] [42].Disability at the current universityThe setting of our research is a growing research university located in the mid-Atlantic region. Ithas seen explosive growth since 2012 when it opened an MD-granting medical school and a yearlater acquired a second DO-granting medical school. The university is named after its benefactor,who provided a $100 million gift to strengthen the region’s engineering capacity. This giftspurred the creation of a College of Engineering that has six academic departments:Civil/Environmental Engineering (CEE), Chemical

Education, 2017 Benefits and Challenges of Transitioning to Community Service Multidisciplinary Capstone ProjectsAbstractSignificant research has shown the positive benefit of service and community-based learning onstudent diversity, engagement, and retention. Elements of service-learning have beenincorporated across disciplines into traditional classes as well as capstone experiences. Whileproviding significant benefits, challenges also exist in managing relationships with externalclients, finding administrative support for these experiences, and engaging students in moreopen-ended projects.Recognizing these benefits, new capstone projects have been introduced at our mid-sized mid-Atlantic college over the last two

Despite this growing attention and acknowledgment of the need toimprove graduate education in engineering, cultures and practices in these spaces are seldomcharacterized as welcoming. In response to the above calls, this study explores the engineering graduate student’sexperience, focusing on their perceived stressors or challenges, while considering the student’sdegree and citizenship status. This study is situated in a three-year effort to develop andimplement a mandatory graduate seminar course focused on promoting equity in STEM at anR1, research-intensive university in the Mid-Atlantic U.S. The following sections will
