Minorities in Engineering

Connections Collaborative (CSC²) initiated andsupported a summer research opportunity for underrepresented minorities within the College ofEngineering at California State University Chico. The aim was to recruit and retain students inscience, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) majors and facilitate their academicsuccess through hands on learning. Through an application process which considered studentinterests and backgrounds, awardees were paired with a faculty mentor to work on a researchproject over the summer. Students received a stipend and nominal equipment budget to purchasesmall items to support their research projects. This paper documents the experiences of oneinterdisciplinary team, comprised of students and faculty from the

The desire was to update the course with new approaches to teachingintroductory aeronautics. The framework for change came as a result of a Kern EntrepreneurialEngineering Network (KEEN) Innovating Curriculum with Entrepreneurial (ICE) MindsetWorkshop. Since 2007 Baylor University has been involved with the KEEN. KEEN is “a nationalpartnership of universities with the shared mission to graduate engineers with an entrepreneurialmindset so they can create personal, economic, and societal value through a lifetime ofmeaningful work” [1].

naturally uncomfortable towork on open-ended problems, because it feels risky to proceed along an ambiguous solutionpath. Nevertheless, some students seem to be more confidently uncomfortable, ready and willingto begin working on open-ended problems. We sought in this study to understand the factors thatmake a student better able to begin work on these projects without directed guidance from theinstructor. Here, this student ability is ascribed to, in part, a student’s ambiguity tolerance andself-efficacy on open-ended problems. A survey instrument to measure ambiguity tolerance and self-efficacy on open-endedproblems was created and subject to internal validation.

While the humanities offercourses that mandate expository, argumentative, and analytical writing, engineering studentsoften overlook similar reasoning styles between engineering and the humanities due to the starkdifference in content discussed. Additionally, technical writing within engineering, whichincludes published research, reports, presentations, among other knowledge products, isproduced and organized according to differing conventions than those followed in thehumanities.
