Also, the plan was for the students to have an opportunity to tour several MSU engineering laboratories and Mankato Airport, fly in a flight simulator and in an airplane. A series of guest speakers, one each day, involving a number of administrators and faculty members from the MNCEME and MSU have also been contacted and agreed to address the Camp participants during lunch.

Academic alters can take a role of encouraging Asian women to participate inservices and activities, in order to capitalize on the interests and intentions of Asian women incivil engineering fields. Most students meet with an academic advisor once or twice a year toplan their studies or courses for the following semester.

These experiences have not been thoroughly investigated [3], [4]. Juniorengineering faculty must navigate complexities in research, teaching, and identity developmentwithin the academic environment [4]. Most studies of STEM-related mentorship focus onundergraduate students, graduate students, and, to a lesser extent, postdoctoral researchers [5].The lack of exploration into the challenges engineering faculty encounter in their early careerstages reinforces the

Because of the importance of neurodiversity at all levels of education, he expanded his work to graduate STEM education through an NSF IGE grant.

To thatend, we use cognitive ethnography, an ethnographic approach combined withcognitive science to study cognitive processes through participant-observation oftwo engineering research laboratories.

Graduate students might feel empowered to pursue a teaching opportunitydespite it taking away time from research, and advisors might consider different ways ofsupporting their graduate students to achieve their career goals.Six new engineering assistant professors, two females and four males, were interviewed as partof a larger research project exploring the pathway to and current experiences of faculty membersat

Thus, teams must document their design process tocreate a compelling set of evidence to support their design decisions and tell an impactful designnarrative.Community stakeholder participation is crucial for a successful design project.
