StudentsIntroductionCreating dynamic outreach opportunities outside of the traditional classroom space that appeal toscience and engineering students can be an exercise in excitement or frustration, depending onmany factors. Narrowing that focus to graduate student events adds an additional layer ofconsiderations. As part of the Pennsylvania State University Libraries (PSUL) Science,Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) Libraries Outreach Team, engagement activitiestend to focus on three goals that provide sustainable and impactful experiences. These goals arecommunity-building (including friendship), library support, and partnerships. The overarchinggoal with this outreach work, however, is not academic. The PSUL STEM Libraries OutreachTeam seeks to foster

, many graduate students lack opportunities to learn how to do that in a STEMsetting. An informal review of US programs revealed that many offer writing courses modeled ontraditional composition courses, which are not necessarily directed to the needs of STEMstudents. Further, many of these courses provide a series of isolated learning modules with littlecontinuity or encouragement to revise and in which technological writing assistance isdiscouraged. This paper describes a collaboration between the Department of Electrical andComputer Engineering and the STEM Librarian for Engineering & Chemistry at the Universityof Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), a large R1 university. The result was the reinvention ofTechnical Communication for Engineers – a

Discipline for Librarians to SupportTwo factors that make NAMOE distinctive and therefore particularly complex for librarians tosupport are the rarity of such programs and the interdisciplinary nature of the work.Accreditation data can provide a baseline glimpse at the uniqueness of NAMOE programs. As ofDecember 2024, ABET lists 16 accredited Naval Architecture and Marine Engineeringprograms, three Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering Technology programs, and 12accredited Ocean Engineering programs. In comparison, ABET lists more than 500 accreditedmechanical engineering programs. In Canada, the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board(CEAB) has 2 accredited NAMOE programs with 38 accredited mechanical engineeringprograms. See Table 1 for a

affectivecompetences. Their research shows the AI literature in higher education emphasizes dataanalysis, problem-solving, and AI in the workforce. They also categorized their findings bydisciplines: technology, engineering, education, communication, medicine, and nursing. Forengineering the following competency frames in the literature were identified; data andalgorithmic literacy, problem-solving, career-related competencies, and AI content creation.Faruge et al [18] research goes beyond broad categories and literacy frames and recommendsdeveloping an AI competency model with behavioral anchors. Essentially this is taking an AIcompetency and matching it to a desired behavior that an AI literate user would demonstrate inspecific use cases (consumer, creator

the factors that help and hinder librarians’ ability to provide disability inclusionand support. This paper focuses specifically on data from STEM librarians who participated inthe survey.IntroductionIt is well-documented that disabled people are substantially underrepresented in STEM (science,technology, engineering, math) fields and that they face significant barriers in STEM degreeprograms and professions [1], [2], [3], especially those with multiply-minoritized identities [4].Across all fields of employment, the Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) (2025)reported a stark disparity between disabled and non-disabled workers: in March 2025, 41% ofdisabled people in the United States were employed compared with 71% of non-disabled

More recent research [5,6] suggests that Science,Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) majors in higher education must also preparestudents to access, explore and incorporate concepts and information from several disciplines aspart of Capstone Projects.As part of a research project exploring the nature of successful Capstone Projects in engineeringeducation, this study was designed to map already existing information literacy

Manhattan College, a university specializing inengineering and business. The study demonstrates how continuous program assessments havebeen used to enhance and adjust the library IL program to better meet the needs of itsstudents.Lasting impacts were also demonstrated in Wong et al.’s [30] study at the Hong KongUniversity of Science and Technology. A survey was sent to students four to eight weeksafter the library sessions ended. They received responses from mostly undergraduates, nearlyhalf being engineering students. In general, responses were more positive if the participantwas more advanced in their studies (graduate students and up) and if they had attended avoluntary workshop, rather than an obligatory one. The researchers also found that
