are they unfamiliar or unaware of prototyping tools, it forces instructors toallocate time for individual instruction and guidance on appropriate techniques for their projectrather than on design specifications and product requirements [2]. In Fall 2023, recognizing thislimitation, we piloted a Physical Prototyping for Design course, with the goal to increasefamiliarity working with various materials, power tools, and machining techniques. As othershave reported [3], we expect early exposure will ultimately allow students to bring thisexperience into SD to create better concept designs, preemptively identify challenges associatedwith fabrication, evolve physical prototypes, and develop improved verification tests.Methods:In fall 2022, we

In engineering, while there has been an increase in degrees awarded to women,they continue to earn fewer undergraduate and graduate degrees than their male counterparts [1]and comprise approximately 16.1% of the U.S. engineering workforce in 2022 [2].To address the problem of female underrepresentation in STEM fields, researchers have beeninterested in learning how faculty can serve as potential role models or mentors to studentsinterested in obtaining degrees in STEM [3]–[5] .
