programs, and mentors. For FGS in engineering majors, many of the studies thatwere conducted looked at the barriers for FGS and posed the research in a deficit model. We aimto reframe this mindset and look at the capital and assets that FGS possess and how they navigatestructures of engineering. We also want to understand what culture and support leads to successin engineering. Martin et al. [13] began the turn in questioning the “deficit” framing of thisgroup. We aim to build on this research with our study. We will use mixed methods tounderstand their experiences and the capital, beyond networks, that they used to persist inengineering.

Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (S-STEM)program can stimulate engineering identity development among students, particularly thoseunder financial constraints [15]. The role of academic institutions in this process has also beendemonstrated in the literature by highlighting the potential of STEM enrichment programs insteering students toward graduate programs in science [16]. The literature underscores that theseprograms are not merely avenues for academic support but can significantly influence studentperformance, degree completion, and even graduate enrollment. Laanan et al. focused on thedimension of “transfer student capital” and presented a nuanced viewpoint on the experiences ofstudents transitioning from

This application, which addressed Accreditation Board for Engineeringand Technology (ABET)’s Criterion 3 and Criterion 5c, was implemented in a four-credit hour(ch) senior-level applied fluid mechanics course, with a 3ch lecture and 1ch laboratorycomponent. The course is the second in fluid mechanics’ sequence and covers topics likepipeline systems design, pump selection, flow of air in ducts, lift and drag, etc. The originalinstructional design used a blend of traditional in-class lectures and problem-based learningfocused on project-based and other laboratory exercises.To further improve the students

This suggests that their evaluation of theproject's impact is likely to have been significantly shaped by their diverse ongoing professionalexperience. The former students responded to a variety of questions about the projectimplementation, including how well they remembered the semester-long group project. Themajority of respondents (82%) ranged from remembering it moderately well to remembering itvery well (see figure 1). They were also asked to briefly describe the project, describe the lessontaught to elementary students, and to describe the role(s) they
suggestedtopics were confirmed to be added to the curriculum. Similarly, due to the professional diversityfactor, the number of proposed alternative names per topic and subtopic confirmed was alsoless than in Experiment 2. And like in Experiment 2’s discussion, the results show that with moreautomation (consensus building for the data analysis of topics, subtopics, and name analyses)outputs a quicker data analyses duration.

aligns with the loading test and falls within therange of reported laboratory tests as documented in the work of Yang et al12. Using theseparameters, the stability analysis indicates that the first mode of lateral buckling is produced with630 pounds, as shown in Figure 11-b. The lateral buckling from the laboratory test occurs with290 pounds, however the buckling shape is like the theory. The disparity between the predictedand observed loads is attributed to misalignment of the upper chord and other imperfectionsinherent in the construction process. 100 pounds a.
