design-based research, action research, and qualitative interviewing. We seek to explore thisconnection for multiple reasons. First, we find that both the lean and customer-centriccharacteristics of this approach are synonymous with engineering education’s iterative, adaptive,and user-centered forms of qualitative research. Second, we, like the National ScienceFoundation, predict these processes will have a positive impact on educational technologies,programs, courses (Chavela Guerra et al. 2014), and engineering education research. Lastly,while we are not the developers of Lean LaunchPad®/Customer Discovery process and have nofinancial stake in promoting it, our team is successfully using this approach and believe theinsights from this work are

Therefore, this paper details the development of a surveyinstrument designed to uncover success metrics of Black students that majored in engineeringand computer science programs at HBCUs and have successfully transitioned into, or completed,graduate school.

only 5 studies that used qualitative methods, one ofwhich used a case study approach to study student experiences in an extracurricular makerspace(O'Connell, 2015). This review also pointed out that while empirical research is focusing onstudent outcomes and curricular integration, many of the reports on academic makerspaces focuson the equipment and physical space of the makerspace itself (i.e., 18 out of 22 reports cited).While qualitative methods are being used as a methodology to study experiences withinmakerspaces, reports on systems and space are still happening. For example, as recently as 2019at the 2019 International Symposium on Academic Makerspaces, Wildbolz and colleagues(2019) shared best practices for managing access to space

design firmssuch as IDEO are also advocating human-centered design processes. According to Tim Brown,CEO and president of IDEO, in order for engineering graduates to make an impact in the globalworkforce, they must develop “design thinking”. Brown5 defines “design thinking” as: a methodology that imbues the full spectrum of innovation activities with a human- centered design ethos. By this I mean that innovation is powered by a thorough understanding, through direct observation, of what people want and need in their lives and what they like or dislike about the way particular products are made, packaged, marketed, sold, and supported.

Therefore, from industry’s perspective, the quality of education for engineering practiceis seen as deficient.

Industrial leaders long expressed amounting concern about the impact of traditional engineering education on the creative potentialof future engineers. A lack of creativity is viewed as problematic in a rapidly changingtechnology-oriented world where generating new ideas is essential to survival.9 In addition,industry has perceived new BS engineering graduates as lacking design capability or creativity,as well as an appreciation for considering alternatives. Further, a 1995 ASME report rankedcreative thinking as 5th of 56 top desired “best practices” for new BS-level engineers as seen byindustry and academe.10 In the past several years
