Inherent in this endeavor is the belief that inter-personal communication and other “soft skills” can be taught, a perspective shared by others,such as those working to foster empathy in engineering courses [15].Capstone course structureThe first author is a civil engineering faculty member at the University of the Pacific where thecivil engineering capstone course is completed in one semester during the senior year, usuallyfollowing the mandatory co-op experience.

toexpect from biomedical engineers. Thus, engineering positions in healthcare which are, intheory, well-suited for biomedical engineers, are instead filled with engineers trained in moretraditional disciplines such as mechanical or electrical engineering [6]. In an effort to better understand these historically fundamental BME challenges, this paperseeks to explore BME identity. Identity, both personal and social, has been shown to play a rolein educational persistence and career decisions. Some studies have examined social identityfactors for representation and persistence in engineering but few, if any, have analyzedprofessional identity of biomedical engineers. Additionally, little has been done to analyze theeffect that social identity

Engineers need to be/are educated to transferlearned principles into practice by way of designing solutions for various practical problems. It isthe centrality of problem-solving that inspired us to design our DBT course AME4163 – Principlesof Engineering Design with an explicit anchoring in multiple theoretical constructs that provide animmersive and authentic learning experience to our students while enriching their learnedoutcomes. Accordingly, the course is designed to embody the following essential components: 1. Internalizing the principles of engineering design and learning how to identify and develop career sustaining competencies. 2

This can beaccomplished by training STEM faculty in an evidenced-based teaching method that keeps thestudents actively engaged in the STEM field.4 In addition, the results of a study that evaluated anumber of engineering curriculum projects, from small to large, determined that when done well,engineering projects are meaningful to a student’s personal experience.

Social encouragement can come from parents, friends,faculty/staff, or peer. It is a major factor in girls’ decision to explore and pursue career in STEMand computing. A support group provides an excellent vehicle for these factors by offeringworkshops, social events, outreach activities, and mentoring.In 2013, we started a support group WiCSE (Women in Computer

engineering school is part of a liberal arts university, is fairlysmall, and has no separate departments within engineering. As with many liberal artsuniversities, students are admitted to the campus but do not declare a major until they aresophomores, giving them time to explore different courses and departments before declaring amajor. Approximately 100 students graduate each year with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) inengineering. Due to the high percentage of liberal arts courses that students must take, the BA isnot accredited in engineering. In order to gain more depth in engineering, students may opt totake an additional 9 courses to earn a Bachelor of Engineering (BE), which is an ABET-accredited degree. In 2017, 45% of those graduating with a BE

Aligned with that objective, this studypresents an initial exploration of the relationship between the stigma typically associated withmental health conditions and help-seeking behavior of students.
