at minority serving institutions. For example, at the historically Black collegeand universities University of the District of Columbia, an elective biology course forjunior-level biology majors integrates the physiological determinants of health and socialdeterminants of health (SDOH) via seminars with guest speakers who research HD [10].At City College of New York, a Hispanic serving institute, their undergraduatebiomedical engineering program engages students in HD challenges with establishedcurricula on HD modules, undergraduate research initiatives in HD, and design projectsfocused on HD [11], [12]. Often, these two disciplines include students on a premedicaltrack, which has also encouraged exposure to HD and SDOH in medical curriculum

The developed curriculum has been madeavailable to all sites and teachers from around the state have been provided training on using thenew curriculum.Challenge Based InstructionThe development of new curriculum for the program offered an opportunity to review thepedagogy and consider new research on effective teaching strategies. The program has had along history of success through integrating projects into the curriculum. In year-end surveys,participants often cite the projects and associated competitions as the highlight of the summer.There are several proven pedagogies that use projects as an integral

in the field of engineering. PBL has long been shown to be an effectivemethod for student learning and understanding, particularly if thoughtfully integrated throughoutthe curriculum [1] and if instructors include key features, such as meaningful inquiries,scaffolded assignments, and consistent feedback [2]. Other studies have shown that PBL is moreeffective in deeper retention of material, satisfaction of both students and professors, anddevelopment of professional skills than traditional lecture methods [3]. However, the overalleffectiveness of PBL, and experiential learning in general, may vary widely depending on thenature and structure of the teamwork [4].This study was conducted at the branch campus of Texas A&M University

andexplains to them the role of a faculty mentor. This initial invitation from a senior professor instils a feelingof trustworthiness in the students and ensures that there is someone closer to them with moreprofessional and academic experience, and with whom they can speak freely about their academic as wellas other professional and personal problems.A checklist is maintained in a file called “Student Folder” for each student, and it is continually updatedafter each meeting with the mentor where the mentor makes sure that each student under her/hismentorship progresses smoothly in an ABET accredited curriculum. This activity is further reinforced byadditional record keeping in the office of the Dean of Engineering. According to one of the mentors

When compared to other majors, however, engineering students are lesslikely to participate in out-of-class activities.11 Out-of-class activities are defined as any activitythat occurs outside of the formal classroom, including curricular activities, co-curricularactivities, and extracurricular activities. Research in engineering education has shown that out-of-class activities are linked to numerous positive outcomes including students’ professional,intellectual, and leadership development, as

Therefore, an element of bait-and-switchremains, but the outlet of creative, synthetic, hands-on design in an intimate, supportive learningenvironment is both present and institutionally legitimated as part of students’ formalizededucational experience. This arrangement challenges the logic of exclusion prevalent within theengineering-only programming by overlaying a logic of engagement on top of the standardfundamentals-first engineering curriculum.

This series began with the mission of questioningpractices and education in the built environment that are integrated in formal instruction. Thegoal is to utilize an alternative method of education where participants (students, faculty, staff,and administrators) recognize how their discipline shapes and supports systems of oppression,while giving them tools to combat it.Before each session, videos and readings were provided to participants to establish anunderstanding of the new topic. The online workshop started with a brief lecture from an SDEIcommittee

There was a wide breadthin the ways teachers implemented their classroom kits. Some teachers mentioned they use theactivity as an introduction to a new concept, while others used them as hands on reinforcement ofa concept they had already taught in a traditional fashion. Teachers who used the kits mentionedthat they encouraged them to try new teaching strategies in their classrooms

ways that impact their educational experiences, and shapes the choices and thecareer pathways that they take. It is also clear from this literature, some of which is cited below,that those choices are not always entirely of their own choosing.In this paper, we wish to present some preliminary results from a pilot study on studentperspectives about engineering education, and how students navigate through their owneducational transformation. What we provide in the paper is an early analysis of interview datagained from student interviews, where undergraduate URP/REU students interviewed otherstudents about their educational experiences. Our initial analysis suggests that student pathwaysare determined in largely interactionist terms, namely
