So providing studentsopportunities to give kindness to others may be impactful. There are examples of this throughservice-learning activities [46] and through acts of intentional kindness [45]. An ideas that fitsinto more traditional engineering courses with team projects includes requesting that teammatesgive a few elements of positive feedback to their peers. In most engineering settings the normappears to be that good behavior is not commented upon because it is expected. That means thatpeople are more often given critiques or negative feedback.

Also, the curriculum includes four integrative courses, whose aim is toincorporate knowledge acquired by students from previous courses and integrate it into activitiesfor current projects and/or for use by companies out in the field. The last integrating course iscalled Degree Portfolio and culminates with the completion of the study program. This course isbased on multidisciplinary projects carried out by teachers of different specialties, finishing in anindividual examination before a commission composed of the course lecturers and externalevaluators who are invited exclusively for this process.Around 70% of college courses are specialized and are concentrated in the last 3 years of

A lot of companiesprobably say that, but I really felt like they genuinely meant it because they did have a lot offemale engineers working for them. My company took pride in hiring lots of female engineeringstaff. I had one supervisor, whose name is Amy and then her supervisor who I was also incontact with, Jane. They were the two primary people that I talked to.I was working on one project, primarily, and I would just do kind of the odds and ends on otherprojects.

Results show a negativecorrelation that suggest that higher general stigma levels are associated with lower help-seekingattitudes. In addition, the relationship between students’ engineering department diversityorientation and help-seeking attitudes differed between those who had experiences with MHCand those who did not, suggesting that the perceptions of diversity orientation might also differamong the two groups.

Pair Programming suggests grouping a student with a peer, employing the“two heads are better than one” philosophy shown to improve the output of projects [6] andperhaps learning outcomes [2]. Students placed in teams may also gain the benefits of peerprogramming, while also providing more authentic industry working conditions and supportingABET student outcome (d), working in multidisciplinary teams [7].
