supports that students whose identities have been traditionally excluded in engineering (suchas LGBTQ+, women, and Native American and Black), it is important to develop an assessmentwith this use in mind. Therefore, the purpose of this work-in-progress is to describe theMentoring Social Capital assessment and initial validation studies, with particular emphasis onconcerns of fairness. We ask the following questions: 1. To what extent are student interpretations of items for the Mentoring Social Capital instrument consistent with how the assessment questions are intended to be interpreted? 2. To what extent do experts agree that the items for the Mentoring Social Capital instrument are aligned with the theory?Theoretical

ofEngineering to achieve the program’s mission: “Empowers globally minded engineering studentsthrough targeted professional development that integrates international perspectives, culturalintelligence, and the ability to deliver a compelling message. We generate global momentum aswe inspire others to enrich themselves and the world through meaningful internationalexperiences” [16].After matriculating into the program, Fellows who meet the service requirements describedabove earn a Global Engineering Fellows badge. Since awarding badges began in 2020, 67 havebeen issued and it is expected that approximately 20 more will be earned in 2024. While studentspreviously earned a grade for skill building in the required gateway course, this credentialprovides
variables (i.e., gender, race, ethnicity, academic major, etc.).As shown in Table 5, the result of Pearson Chi-square test revealed that engineering students hada higher likelihood of experiencing changes in epistemic dimension as compared to the non-engineering students, pointing towards the possibility of a meaningful relationship betweenstudent majors and the likelihood of changes in habits of mind dimensions.Table 5.
