developing professional skills [95].DiscussionAddressing the Research QuestionsTo address the first research question of this paper that explores individuals’ engineeringpathways from high school to workplace”, our literature review shows the following patterns inpathways of students who consider pursuing, or have pursued, an undergraduate engineeringdegree. At the high school stage, the educational pathways are primarily categorized by ‘STEM’vs ‘non-STEM’, either for choice of subjects studied in high school, or by the choice ofpostsecondary majors. However, at the postsecondary education stage, pathways are defined bychoice of engineering disciplines and persistence in an engineering discipline till completion. Atthe workplace stage, pathways are

toward individual groups [42]. Among thetargeted strategies developed to increase the number of minority students in engineeringprograms is the nationwide growth of outreach programs like summer camps, weekend familyevents and other informal education opportunities in which students can engage. In general,many researchers consider educational “outreach” to be informal, out-of-school experiences forstudents [43].One possible reason for the lack of easy-to-locate research in minority engineering recruitment isthe loose, poorly defined use of the terms “outreach” and “recruitment” in engineering educationresearch. For the purposes of this discussion, we utilize “outreach” to mean informal interactionswith K-12 students that are generally geared

and computer engineering students. Employing a basicBiCMOS voltage follower, groups are required to conduct circuit-level reliability assessmentsholistically, tasking students with quantifying the interaction among devices under operation,estimating the degradation of individual components, and proposing strategies to mitigatepotential reliability risks. For the team project, electrical and computer engineering students willbe charged with evaluating an assigned circuit on a schematic-level and simulating the circuitoperation, and mechanical engineering students will undertake thermal and mechanical analysesto account for localized Joule heating and its implication on the electrical and mechanicalintegrity of the circuit. Collaboratively
