expect any leniency indeadlines for deliverables the way they might from an unrealized project or on a capstone projectfor whom the stakeholders are imaginary. Additionally, these productions have finite budgets aswell as finite material and personnel resources; design decisions must adhere to these constraints.Further, because these productions have large teams of stakeholders (i.e. producers, directors,choreographers, designers, painters, other technicians, etc.) in technical elements with conflictingneeds and competing design criteria, students must learn to collaborate and communicateeffectively with them. A unique skill when speaking with stakeholders who likely know littleabout their specific engineering background

research involves examining different types of homework problems in undergraduate engineering science courses, the intersection of affect and engineering identity, and improving the teaching of engineering courses.Courtney Burris ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023 Addressing Engineers and Stakeholders Social and Institutional Power in a Human-Centered Design Capstone CourseIntroductionAs trained professionals, engineers have well recognized areas of expertise. Such expertise oftentranslates into expert power in their professional practice. Expert power can be defined as theability to influence other people, decision-making, and project planning and/or project outcomesbased on the

engineering culture? To answer this research question, we look at the engineeringteaming experiences of African American females in a diverse range of engineering disciplines.BackgroundTeams are a necessary and vital aspect of the engineering profession, and the process of teaminghas been studied widely in engineering education research (EER) and beyond [21]–[26]. Thereal-world problems engineers face are interdisciplinary and complex, requiring a group ofindividuals offering different backgrounds and areas of expertise to solve them. As a result,group projects requiring teams have become a staple in engineering curriculum [21]. Examplesof engineering team projects include freshmen design projects to capstone senior design projects,including

26 30–60–minutequalitative interviews during the 2023 Fall semester to understand the students’ institution–specific experiences of inclusion and exclusion. Additional interviews with students, faculty andadministrators will be conducted during the 2024-25 school year.During this project, five student research assistants conducted semi-structured interviews withtheir fellow students. The interview data collected was analyzed and used to help createsuggestions for practices that might lead to a diverse and inclusive culture in our newmakerspace. By discovering what individual students and stakeholder groups value and expect ofan inclusive makerspace the research team was able provide guidance to campus leaders and themakerspace director to
