Instructors shouldalso consider hidden curriculum related to overwork [30-32]. If we imply that engineeringstudents should always be studying, this might contribute to poor mental health. It might alsodiscourage students from persisting in engineering to earn their degree or enter the engineeringworkforce. Alternatively, we can encourage students to develop a healthy balance which includesattending to the eight dimensions of well-being via an array of activities.References[1] National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and

First-year designcourses, specifically, are foundational to introduce students to the field to increase interest andmaintain retention (Brannan & Wankat, 2005). With a shared emphasis on developing technicaland professional skills, first-year design courses also give students an opportunity to practiceskills that are necessary to the profession, within an authentic project context. However,gendered behavior can be present among student teams, which can negatively impact theexperience for female students. Analysis of gendered task assignment and female perspectivesare commonly

The popularity of these ideas hasencouraged a conflagration of efforts to incorporate and integrate grit into every facet of theeducation system, from curriculum development to personal and professional development.As posited by Duckworth, the

Itbecomes clear that a sharper focus on stakeholders and features is a critical requirement forproduct success and an integrated approach is needed to help students navigate thesecomplexities. A systems engineering approach for undergraduate design education has been applied in firstyear to capstone design courses to help students with designing systems (Simoni, et al., 2016).The advantages of the approach are that one set of models or views is applicable to a widevariety of design problems making the common approach easier for students to learn and facultyto teach and assess
