the quality ofteaching from an instructor. These evaluations are often used for consideration of tenure,compensation, employment decisions, and teaching awards, among other career milestones.However, a variety of literature indicates that student evaluations of teaching may not be anaccurate indication of teaching effectiveness [1], [2]. In particular, student biases about factorssuch as gender, race, and age can all affect their evaluations [3]–[5]. In this Work-in-progressarticle, we introduce a backwards design approach to re-evaluate the use and goals of courseevaluations from multiple stakeholders including faculty, administrators, and students. Thesegoals are then used to redefine the types of questions needed in course evaluation

The program introduces students to the academicenvironment through challenging activities connecting mathematics to science andqualitative observation to quantitative calculation. The program also provides theparticipants with immediate contact with their peers, near-peers (in upper-division andgraduate students) and faculty. The combination of content and friendships happen in theenvironment in which they will work and study in the next years and helps them see thepossibilities of their success.

A study1of science, mathematics, and engineering majors concludes: (p.384) “All students, regardless of race or ethnicity, appreciated those departments and facultywho had given them a discipline–specific work–study opportunity or the chance to be involvedwith a research project. We found that research opportunities for any undergraduates were rareon all seven campuses. However, students who had been involved in departmental research werevery enthusiastic about their experience and felt it greatly enhanced their interest in the field.”Another book2 on retention

[1], three common challenges that most early-career engineering faculty face arebalancing the demands of research, teaching, and other professional obligations; lack of time tocope with personal and professional responsibilities; and setting realistic goals and expectationsfor individual accomplishments. The difficulties can be more pronounced for internationalstudents, especially those who return to their home countries. Khanal and Gaulee [2] describethis readjustment as reverse culture shock.

Many critiques are based on outdated stereotypes: a 2016 surveyrevealed that 40% of parents did not see manufacturing as a good-paying employment choice fortheir children; 50% did not see manufacturing as an exciting, challenging, or engaging career [1].Even more troubling is the underrepresentation of women and minorities in manufacturing.

Literature ReviewEngineering has persistently been composed of predominantly white men [4]. As a result, whitemen define a masculine culture of engineering [1], [2], [5]–[12]. The culture is oftenunwelcoming and creates issues for Black and Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) such asnepotism, cultural mismatch, perceptions of under-qualification, lack of peers, lack of overallworkplace diversity and lack of support for minoritized people [13]–[16]. Throughoutundergraduate education, many engineering students are introduced to these workplace culturesvia internships. Internships are important because they strongly influence career decisions andopportunities [17].Internships and cooperative education programs are valuable for engineering students [18
