2021 were given to women [3], but they constitute 16% of work-ing professionals in the field [4]. Additionally, Hispanic and Black populations are under-represented in the engineering/STEM workforce relative to the general workforce: 11% ofthe total workforce is Black, but only 5% of the engineering workforce, and 17% of the totalworkforce is Hispanic, but only 8% of the STEM workforce [3]. Addressing the issues thatcreate these disparities is multifaceted, but beginning with educational interventions for stu-dents that enhance their self efficacy for further pursuing engineering post graduate is a start.Prior research has indicated the need to increase self efficacy in engineering students, es-pecially from these diverse backgrounds, to help

scope of aproblem—a skill highly desired for its potential in innovation and entrepreneurship—fills a uniquecurricular gap. The survey of learning experiences showed statistically significant differencesbetween pre- and post-course scores in self-efficacies, which suggests that students sawimprovement in the ratings of their learning in five target areas: (A) background research skills,(B) critical thinking and ideation, (C) project management and teamwork, (D) technicalcommunication skills, and (E) interest in medical engineering.1. Introduction Current engineering education has well-established curricula that covers domain knowledge,mathematic skills, and engineering tools. Although education content and format have evolved,the general

, UPRM is onlybeginning to incorporate JEDI into Strategic Planning. This project will accelerate those efforts.We intend to work with administrators to develop a climate survey and to improve the counting ofnon-binary students.3. MindsetsBefore discussing the program design, we deliberate a set of mindsets essential to develop instudents. This is a precursor to developing a competency-based profile that is under development.Student Self-efficacyAside from the theme of Sustainability, students in the new programs must be prepared to be self-motivated and willing to take a high level of responsibility for their learning. We plan to use thePittsburgh Freshman Engineering Attitudes Survey (PFEAS) to assess student self-efficacy uponentry and use

Both sections will be attending a Teachingand Learning Symposium offered internally through the Provost office and faculty developmentcenter. Future analysis will include a deeper exploration of the impact of this certification on thestudents' development. This will include the following: ● Interviews with the students around their teaching philosophy. ● Examination of the new 396 cohort philosophy and 397 newly developed philosophies ● Impact analysis on motivation, attitudes, self-efficacy on the students and their career ● Impact on analysis on confidence and success in their respective courses as teaching fellows through

studentsthe ability to reflect upon their learnings and leads to a general increase in self-motivation and self-efficacy. UBD or understanding by design models help students inrelating what they learn in a course to the real world, and thus deepening theirunderstanding. But given the limitations of these and other models, there is always someimportant piece of experience or learning that is left out. For that very reason, designthinking is one of the most renowned educational models. The model incorporates notonly the self-motivation and reflection of project-based learning, and the real-lifeassociation of concepts as seen in UBD models, but goes a step further and grantsstudents the freedom of exploration to truly expand their horizons
