STateAcademic Redshirts (WA STARS) Program at University of Washington (UW) and WashingtonState University (WSU) suggests that the “redshirt in engineering” model is a successful tool forimproving outcomes for students who would be otherwise excluded from engineering. Theexpansion of the model to three additional schools -- University of California, San Diego(UCSD), Boise State University (BSU), and University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) --will allow for an examination of its malleability and potential for further dissemination.

These project mentors selected ten community college students from a shortlist of 20candidates provided by two members of the RU team (lead principal investigator and graduatestudent researcher) who conducted 34 interviews from an original pool of 58 applicants.

Although males are still the majority in this field, biomedical engineering is one of themore popular engineering fields among women.15 The final major change to our program fornext year is our goal to interview participants about their experiences. We will utilize this as away for students to reflect on their experiences as well as a way for us to receive more rich dataabout the short-term impacts of our program.Resources[1] F.

formative assessments to favordifferent learning styles (Wang, Wang et al. 2006). Both learning style and formativeassessment strategy significantly affected student achievement, though, consistent with Pashler etal.’s conclusion, the interaction between these factors was not significant. Additionally, as thisstudy was performed with a web-based middle-school biology course, a gap remains with regardto undergraduate engineering education.As the primary motivation for this study is increasing the diversity of the engineering graduatesthat colleges and universities prepare for the workforce, some evidence demonstrates thatvarying teaching approaches to favor a multitude of learning styles may aid in achieving thatparticular end.

organizations often tend to amplify the moral and political values that are lacking and need to be further enhanced in developing contexts. They view technologies as instruments for well-being rather than profits.As engineering educators who are interested in preparing future engineers for the increasinglyglobalized future, we need to be careful about what kind(s) of “global engineers” we are training.Emphasizing one or two approaches to engineering ethics over others represents an incompleteapproach that fails to project an appropriately comprehensive view of global engineering practice.Obviously, we are not training every student to become a professional engineer working in amultinational business company, nor do we expect that

learning approaches with ever-changing research-based and technologically instrumented means, transferring control over education from teachers to mangers of the bureaucracy.Therefore, engineering education is considered as a system that can be studied, controlled,optimized, and assessed. A classic example in this regard is the “pipeline” metaphor [10] that hasbeen widely used in the United States to understand and tackle the systematic challenges withretaining engineering students and recruiting underrepresented populations. Nearly allengineering education graduate programs in the United States are in engineering colleges,schools, or departments.
