Basedupon this, we conclude that the communicative and technological skills required in the internshipaligned with our micro-credential goals.CONCLUSION AND LIMITATIONSThis program is in its infancy: we’ve only just now begun the second cohort, and the pandemicgreatly impacted our ability to secure students. Nonetheless, we think reporting out on thisproject is worthwhile for a number of reasons. First, data science is an increasingly importantpart of STEM education, but its locale within academic programs is inconsistent and notnecessarily within engineering programs’ footprints. We hope this program offers a blueprint forhow interdisciplinary and engineering programs might

mathematics and science is absolutely necessary; a good knowledge ofwritten and spoken English is a further requirement” [6, p. 188]. In following decades,engineering educators addressed this need by including courses on technical writing in theircurricula. But some educators felt that approach was insufficient and they debated whetherwriting courses should be elective or required. For example, Davis, a professor of English at theAir Force Institute of Technology who surveyed 245 professional engineers in 1975 on theimportance of technical writing in their careers, summarized the situation at the time: “Althoughtechnical writing is coming to be accepted as a respectable course offering in engineeringprograms, it is still regarded as an ‘add-on’ by

. This major would have students take an Introduction to Engineering Design class,Statics, Materials, complete an external project, and do a one-semester capstone. Thisengineering curriculum would be supported by math, physics and chemistry courses, includingelectronics and thermodynamics through the physics department. The initial engineering sciencedegree was not meant to be an ABET-accredited degree but a pathway for students interested inengineering to gain engineering training while integrating other interests such as business,environmental science, and data science. This degree was intended to provide strong preparationfor careers in areas such as entrepreneurship, project management, architecture/design,government technology policy

Humanitarian agencies working in at-riskcommunities, are often in need of not just cash and medical supplies, but also require trainedprofessionals who are comfortable with technology, can guide innovation, and can provideguidance and training to others in the appropriate use of technology [4]. Both emerging andlong-term humanitarian crises have created an endless demand for engineers who are willing andcapable of channeling their skills towards working to alleviate the suffering of those displacedfrom their homes [5]. While the demand only continues to grow, the supply of such individualsremains limited, in part due to the limited training opportunities to engage with these issues.Despite the opportunity and need

Since a school and/orfamily obligation requires low-income students to work, they cannot engage well in school andafford engagement activities like football games. The underrepresentation of low-SES graduatesmeans that those graduates are missing out on the financial and professional benefits of jobopportunities available through STEM. This underrepresentation also impacts the overall numbersof STEM professionals in the U.S [6].

Other mindsets that frequently appear among engineers are “technological optimism”(Krier and Gillette, 1985), in which human progress is uncritically associated with technologicalinnovation, “technological neutrality” which posits that technology is value-free, and that valuesonly arise based on decisions of the users of the technology (Papadopoulos and Nettleship,2020). A related attitude expressed by engineering students is that engineering is an “exact”science
