Academia hasalso noted the importance of developing professional skills in ABET Student Outcomes (ABET,2021, pp. 8–9) and the Educating the Engineer of 2020 report from the National Academy ofEngineering (2004). Experiential learning is one way that academia has changed in response,which can take place inside and outside of the

IntroductionIn a study of the Florida A&M University-Florida State University College of Engineering pre-engineering program, almost 700 engineering students were analyzed that were enrolled throughthe HBCU (FAMU) partner of the joint college [1]. Of the students who completed the pre-engineering program, 72% eventually graduated from the university with a
fellow in the Industrial & Operations Engineering Department at the University of Michigan, where she also received her B.S.E. in 2015, M.S.E in 2017, and Ph.D. in 2019 from the Mechanical Engineering Department. As director of the Human Instrumentation and Robotics (HIR) lab, she leads multiple lines of research in engineering dynamics with applications to wearable technology for analysis of human motion in a variety of contexts ranging from warfighters to astronauts. In addition to her engineering work, she also has an interest in engineering education research. As a doctoral student, she led a project aimed at improving the under- graduate educational experience by systematically incorporating sensor technology
research focuses on studying different instructional strategies’ unique contributions to students’ learning and motivation. Also, she is interested in designing interventions that help understand conceptually hard concepts in STEM courses. Dr. Anwar is the recipient of the 2022 Apprentice Faculty Grant by the ERM Division, ASEE. Also, she received the 2020 outstanding researcher award from the School of Engineering Education, Purdue University. Also, she was the recipient of the ”President of Pakistan Merit and Talent Scholarship” for her undergraduate studies.Dr. Bilal Mansoor, Texas A&M University at Qatar ..Dr. Yasser M.
