StudentsIntroductionIncreasing achievement of underrepresented students in science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM) is a critical and difficult task [1]. Underrepresented students make up asmall fraction of the STEM workforce (13%) compared to white students (71%) [1]. Mentorship,particularly research mentorship, plays an important role in the development of scientific identity[2] and improves students’ moral, performance, and retention rates [3]. Therefore, mentoringunderrepresented students in research is critical for increasing their achievement. Students whoreceive research mentoring have described mentors as colleagues who provided them anopportunity to flourish. These students were more likely to identify as scientists, whereas thosewho did not

junior engineers’ responsibility to reshape companies’ goals to address environmental and social impacts of their technology/product? - What is your opinion?Several qualitative questions focused on students’ actions. Students in their 1st year were askedquestion 1 but not question 2 because the team assumed they would not have had time toaccumulate enough experiences within the institution at that point. 1. Is there a time when you acted to improve some situation? Please explain. 2. Which projects with a social or environmental aspect have you participated in while at “our school” (in class, in projects)? Please list.Question 1 will not be discussed in this paper because coding of the answers proved verychallenging. In
www.slayte.com Engagement in Practice: The University of Maryland’s Get Out and Learn (GOAL) Engineering Kit InitiativeUndergraduate engineering education often reinforces an arbitrary sociotechnical divide thatattempts to isolate technical skills from their embedded social environments (Cech & Sherick,2015). Engineering curriculum focuses primarily on developing technical skills, often withoutconsideration of the social (e.g., cultural, political, economic) contexts within these technologies,skills, or training are situated. Service-learning opportunities for engineering students and facultyrepresent one opportunity set for bridging social and technical knowledge and skills. Furthermore,service-learning courses can

continuous assessment of the program outcomes. One of thebiggest obstacles in assessment is the inability to engage students in the awareness of programoutcomes and their importance in the curriculum. Many students see them as overly generalizedstatements that have no bearing on the concepts they need to pass a given course. Thus,dissemination of the notion and value of program outcomes is a major challenge for the faculty.Examples of freshman class assignments and projects that address specific program outcomes ina mechanical engineering department are presented.

reasons,preference has been given to linear systems as they are the building blocks for the analysis ofelectric circuits, electronics, and signals in digital and analog technology forms. We argue,however, that an introduction to nonlinear systems is both desirable and feasible at theundergraduate level as a natural extension of the Harvard calculus reform and the BostonUniversity differential equations project3 and as a follow-up to linear signals and systems coursesadopted at the turn of the century by many undergraduate electrical engineering programs4.Specifically, our goal is to develop a course at the junior level of Electrical Engineering that cancomplement and reinforce the curriculum by providing an accessible methodology for
