In the next few years going forward, the university aims to recruitan additional 130 students each year, with plans to grow the faculty as well, while a permanentcampus is being built. It ultimately aspires to reach a steady state of roughly 3000 students intotal after 10 years.The students come from a variety of backgrounds.

repeatedly demonstrated the impact of the educational program on proximalacademic outcomes (Hess et al., 2016; Van Overschelde, 2013; Tran & Nathan, 2010). Forinstance, students involved in the program are likely to pursue a STEM-focused degree aftercompleting high-school, and are more likely to persist until degree completion than students whocomplete a more traditional K-12 experience (Bottoms & Uhn, 2007; Gottfried & Plasman,2018; Lee et al., 2019; Rethwisch et al., 2012; Robbins et al., 2014; Sorge, 2014; Starobin et al.,2013; Van Overschelde, 2013).Prior empirical investigations from the qualitative perspective have provided convergingevidence that the primary barriers to PLTW implementation are costs associated with

The initial intention was for theseminar to be offered in three different formats throughout an academic year: (1) five-weekcourse with 2.5 hours sessions once per week; (2) two-day course with 6- hour sessions eachday; and (3) an online version. The course was piloted during the 2019-2020 academic year,during which 11 engineering departments across the College opted to make this seminarmandatory for

Abstract In order to inform a discussion of silenced communities within systemic processes, we examine the ASEE Diversity Recognition Program (ADRP) as a step towards amplifying re- flexive and critical activities already occurring within ASEE. In light of recent concern over the ADRP as a means of disrupting minority marginalization in Engineering Education1 , we reflect on the origins of the program as well as how to proactively shift the program’s cultural context to one of greater criticality about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) in engineering, broadly.
