to theAmerican Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) 2019 Annual Conference in Tampa. The full-dayworkshop was designed to provide a safe space for African American women engineering faculty to cometogether to discuss challenges and opportunities for supporting their professional development. Morespecifically, the workshop goals were as follows: 1. Discuss the salient challenges African American women engineering faculty face and brainstorm solutions to resolve these problems; 2. Develop an agenda for addressing the issues they face; 3. Offer support and encouragement for their advancement in the academy and national leadership roles; and 4. Launch a national mentoring network among them to foster ongoing

When compared to the general U.S. population, these numbers are only a fraction of thesepopulations, indicating a significant gap in representation. These gaps have been long recognizedin engineering with little progress relative to other STEM fields [2].The importance of having a diverse workforce should not be understated.

Paper ID #41431A Multi-Institutional Assessment of Entrepreneurial Mindset Perceptions ofStudents Participating in Entrepreneurial REU Programs Through ConceptMapsMs. Alexandra Mary Jackson, Rowan University Alexandra Jackson is a third year PhD candidate at Rowan University in Engineering Education. She began her research in Rowan’s Experiential Engineering Education Department in the Fall of 2019, and has developed interests in entrepreneurial mindset and student development. In particular, she is interested in assessment of entrepreneurial mindset through both quantitative and qualitative methods, and is currently
active member of ASEE since 1998. She joined as a graduate student, after working on an engineering education project and presenting that work and student chapter activities at annual conference. As a faculty member, she regularly publishes and presents at the ASEE Annual Conference. Her interests are in design education and assessment in mechanical and biomedical engineering. She previously served ASEE in leadership roles in the ERM and Mechanics Divisions and as PIC-III Chair.Miss Alissa Papernik Undergraduate Student at Rowan University’s College of EngineeringAmanda Ferreira Dias-Liebold, Rowan University Undergraduate Student at Rowan University College of Engineering American

After receiving her PhD, Dr. Wong began a post-doctoral fellowship at Lawrence National Laboratory focusing on computa- tional analysis for nonlinear seismic analysis of Department of Energy nuclear facilities and systems. She has established an active research lab at SFSU with a diverse group of undergraduate and Master’s level students. For her engineering education research, she is interested in exploring how to use technology such as virtual reality and 3D printing to enhance student engagement.

She was the 2018-2019 Chancellor’s Scholar-in-Residence, responsible for organizing faculty development workshops and developing protocols to enhance teaching across disciplines, focusing in particular on the teaching of professional writing across disciplines and prevention of academic dishonesty.Dr. Jaskirat Sodhi, New Jersey Institute of Technology Dr. Jaskirat Sodhi is interested in first-year engineering curriculum design and recruitment, retention and success of engineering students. He is the coordinator of ENGR101, an application-oriented course for engineering students placed in pre-calculus courses. He has also developed and co-teaches the Fundamen- tals of
their availability to prepare, including non-computing related jobs, caring for a familymember, or ongoing health issues. While we do consider the support mechanisms students mayleverage to overcome obstacles, in general, these results emphasize the larger issues in existinghiring structures, and demonstrate the importance of not treating students as a monolith. Thefindings from this work are intended to inform educators about how to better prepare students tosucceed on technical interviews, and to encourage industry to reform the process to make it moreequitable.1 IntroductionBetween 2019 and 2029, demand for workers in computing occupations are expected to surge28.8% [1].

selected 22 participants; 11 male and11 females. Participant selection was based on responses to an online survey taken in class at thebeginning of the spring 2019 semester. The survey included demographic information as well asquestions related to participants’ beliefs about the nature of intelligence. We used a purposefulsampling approach with the goal of selecting participants that would provide insightful andinformative responses [33]. The high school teacher also provided valuable insight into whichstudents would likely be willing to participate in interviews and provide information-rich data.As one of our research questions aimed to explore gendered differences in beliefs aboutsmartness, we also considered gender during selection with the
