-college)-level with a goal of pursuing an engineering major never make it to that200-level. In contrast to the 200-level experience, students earlier in their academic path aremore diffuse in 100-level math, physics, and chemistry courses that also serve other STEMmajors and include no direct instruction on how course content is relevant to their career goals.Opportunities to build community around engineering are up to individual students to seek out inextra-curricular opportunities such as student clubs. This challenge is amplified for most WCCengineering students who must complete 10-20 credits of prerequisite math and physicscoursework before credits apply toward their eventual Bachelor of Science degree.Table 1 illustrates the differential

forentrepreneurship and innovation. Although studies have analyzed how students perceive this typeof training, few of them have unveiled its influence on behaviors and career goals. The formativeuse of the assessment instruments employed is limited, so more efforts are needed to evaluateentrepreneurial training towards its continuous improvement. This article proposes a methodologyto involve students in curriculum evaluation so they become partners in curriculum delivery andteaching practices. To explore its benefits, we applied it on a Major focused on engineering design,entrepreneurship and innovation. During classroom sessions of three Major courses, a form wasused to generate individual reflections and collective discussions about course methods

“rigid classroom dynamics.” This resonates with another respondent’s descriptionof AB Engineering Studies classes as “more collaborative” than BS engineering. (Although thiswas a common observation, a single respondent felt that BS classes had “more camaraderie” thanAB classes.) Another response described the effect of different classroom styles on the student:“In BS classes, my thinking was myopic, and I was focused on simply absorbing the curriculum.In AB classes, I felt much more curious and open-minded.”Each of these responses related to an aspect of the “Faculty/Classes in Engineering Studies,”suggesting that a strength of the program is its faculty members and the classroom environmentsand experiences they facilitate.

This paper presents the approach of how auniversity team (professor and graduate students) collaborated with the National Society of BlackEngineers (NSBE) to conduct a longitudinal analysis of a summer engineering program fundedthrough an Early CAREER faculty award from the National Science Foundation’s EngineeringEducation Broadening Participation (BPE) program. According to the literature, there is a greatneed for longitudinal analysis of STEM outreach programs, especially informal ones, and supportstudents from historically excluded backgrounds. This paper contributes to the academia-non-profit partnership literature within the context of longitudinal studies by mapping out the

As one author describes it, theseapproaches “[allow] students to draw on their own experiences…to create a focal point andmeaning around abstract ethical concepts” [19, p. 1390].While the literature on experiential learning in engineering ethics has grown substantially inrecent years, extensions of this strategy into the realm of engineering leadership education iscomparatively rarer in published research. Our development of The Mystery Lab, therefore,leverages an opportunity to explore how the strengths of an experiential approach to ethicsinstruction can be applied not just to personal decision making, but to the collective behaviors

The instrument, named the Value, Expectancy, and Cost ofTesting Educational Reforms Survey (VECTERS), was designed to assess attitudes regardingspecific student-centered classroom strategies and to collect self-reported use of those classroomstrategies. The desire to develop this instrument emanated from the project evaluation of anNSF-funded Improving Undergraduate Science Education (IUSE) project at a large college ofengineering in the southwestern United States.The IUSE project provides professional development for pairs of faculty members from multipleengineering disciplines (e.g

I facedseveral challenges as an international student, but they made me more resilient, I developedproblem-solving abilities and I learned to find different people for different types of mentorships andadvice I needed during that time.After completing my PhD in engineering education, I became a faculty member in a smaller engineeringeducation

Similarly, in Bioengineering, none of the non-faculty teaching stafflisted on the website are female. This can lead to a delegitimizing of the academic purpose andauthority of SEEFs due to unintended gender bias, and less emphasis on the organizationalculture capital (the shared sense of identity, norms, values and trust) and role models needed forundergraduate students to develop an engineering identity.

Antiquated ideologies about who belongs inengineering education often persist among faculty and students [6], particularly within PWIsettings, which can result in students of color experiencing marginalization and isolation duringtheir undergraduate careers [7], [8], [9]. Consequently, these students are often retained in theengineering pipeline at disproportionately lower rates than their white peers [1], [10]. Thecontinued underrepresentation of Black and Brown individuals among engineering bachelor’sdegree recipients in the U.S. contributes to persistent equity gaps and racial homogenizationwithin the profession [11
