for industries to attract and recruittalented graduates, offering students potential employment opportunities [6]. Acknowledgingits numerous advantages, UIC is labeled as a strategic approach to enhance innovationefficiency and encourage the practical use of technological advancements in various tertiaryeducation systems worldwide [7] [8].As extensively studied in academic literature, universities employ a comprehensive range ofstrategies to prepare students for successful engagement in industrial collaboration. Thisapproach includes curriculum design wherein universities intricately integrate industry-relevant courses and practical training into their curricula [9]. Study reveals that embeddedand extra-curricular internships, as well as

imperative forbiomedical engineering programs to equip students with AI competencies that align withevolving industry demands [3], [4].To address this need, this work aims to survey leading biotechnology companies to identify themost essential AI tools, techniques, and skills currently employed or actively being taught totheir employees, to gain insights on whether they can be integrated into the biomedicalengineering curriculum. By gathering insights directly from industry professionals, the studyseeks to bridge the gap between academic instruction and practical applications in key areassuch as machine learning, data analysis, and AI-driven automation. The survey is designed tofocus on AI tools currently used in biotechnology research while

, the theoretical foundation for design thinking is rooted in a varietyof disciplines, including engineering and social sciences, which enables complex problem-solvingthrough alternative, creative, and innovative ways (Foster, 2021; Buchanan, 1992; Dam & Siang,2018; Huppatz, 2015, Razouk & Shoute, 2012). The integration of multiple viewpoints and thesynergy of collective creativity are essential components that significantly enhance theeffectiveness of Design Thinking (IDEO, 2012). Design thinking continues to evolve with thewidely accepted approach, which follows the order of empathize, define, ideate, prototype, andtest. This process is cyclic and continues until an efficient solution is achieved. Jain (2015) positedthat advocates for

MCC curriculum integrated elders’ knowledge of the particulardesign of unique artifacts. These artifacts are then integrated into mathematical problem-solvingsituations that connect that knowledge to the teaching of mathematics concepts. The authorsbelieve the power of these cases resides in the long-term collaborative work between insiders andoutsiders, resulting in an effective culturally-based curriculum. These studies demonstrate thatMCC’s math curriculum makes a difference in the math performance of AI/AN students and thedata shows that consistent instruction using math instruction with cultural contexts can alsopotentially close academic performance gaps.Acknowledge the Indigenous WorldviewOur conception of the world- our worldview- is

San Diego, senior undergraduateswork in teams to design engineering solutions for human health. In this year-long experience,students build upon their prior curriculum and engage in real-world open-ended projects todevelop important engineering skills. This experience culminates with an annual in-person eventcalled Bioengineering Day (BE-Day), in which senior students present posters on their designwork. Students have the unique opportunity to interact one-on-one with multiple industrialprofessionals, discussing their senior design at BE-Day. Industrial representatives also providefeedback on students’ professional and design skills for formative assessment of the degree towhich the students developed these competencies. In this work, we

to encourage trailblazing students to enter STEM fields. We must also activelyincrease accessibility to education and training in STEM for these individuals 10 . We designed andimplemented an assessment-driven approach for targeted technical training. Critical to our methodis supporting each student as an individual, from an asset-based growth mindset, and designingour curriculum to best support individual needs and goals 24,25 . We leverage system integration andcognitive engineering to design approaches that allow for modular, scalable content to support stu-dents with varied experiences and backgrounds. We provide the materials, research, and capacityto deliver high-quality, experiential training for CIRCUIT fellows.Based on the

, Lent and Brown[6] defined SCCT with an emphasis on how self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and personalgoals play pivotal roles in guiding an individual’s career trajectory.This framework closely parallels efforts to define and understand "engineering identity," aconcept many researchers explore. However, SCCT also emphasizes the role of contextual andexperiential factors, such as institutional support or barriers, in shaping these core variables. Byintegrating these factors, this theory is a particularly valuable comprehensive lens for identifyingfactors of professional socialization mechanisms that affect engineers’ job satisfaction and careerpersistence in engineering. My review will integrate the three components of self-efficacy,outcome
