sustainable environments.Integrating this reciprocal connection between public policy and civil engineering intoundergraduate civil engineering education is critical for the preparation of the next generation ofengineers. This project, first, reviews the guidance of public policy in civil engineeringprograms, such as ASCE’s Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge. Then, a pedagogicalapplication is presented that focuses on the integration of public policy concepts, methods,assessment tools and techniques in a required, upper level course in civil and environmentalengineering at Bucknell University. Iterations of this course integration have been taught for overa decade, and experiences on how to engage students around this timely topic is

Green Building Council (USGBC)has developed the LEED Lab program to provide this opportunity for students to becomeinvolved in a real-world project and practice sustainability during their education. Ball StateUniversity is one of the few universities that is offering LEED Lab to undergraduate studentsthrough which two campus buildings have been certified to date. In this course, students becomeinvolved in the process of certifying a campus building under LEED Operation and Maintenance(LEED O+M) for Existing Buildings. The purpose of this course is to provide a chance forstudents to gain hands-on experience and improve

Severalexamples of in-process questions about these topics are as follows: ● What was the most intriguing design idea you had, regardless of whether it’s feasible in our project? ● What questions do you have about the next project deliverable? ● What is it about your design that you think the end users will like? ● What did we do this week that helped your learning? ● What could we do to improve your learning?Exit surveys

Acquisition of transferable professional skills andexploration of careers through experiential learning are widely promoted among many master’s(and undergraduate) programs as desirable features of IDPs. In practice, transferable skills havesector specific definitions and delivery of training is variable in quality and modes. Experientiallearning has a wide range of manifestations from individual internships/apprenticeships atcompanies, capstone projects which are common in engineering, and group industrial projects thatmay be done at the university.

The engineering design course allowsstudents to work on a real-world project and exposes them to a broad range of ideas and skillsthat are important in engineering. Many of these – such as communication, planning, teamwork,prioritization, and dealing with failure – are also very relevant to life beyond engineering.“Connections” is an optional supplement to this required design course that engineering studentstake during their first

In our research, we applied disciplinary identity theory, with a focus on computingidentity, to explore participants’ perceptions of the experiences and the impact of the Guild ontheir future computing aspirations. Towards this goal, we used a convergent parallelmixed-methods approach. We conducted pre- and post-workshop surveys of (n = 34) students’impressions and goals.

The current study explored children and parents’ perceptions of and reactions tofrustration and failure within an out-of-school, home-based engineering program. Specifically,we asked 1) How was failure perceived by participating families? and 2) What was thesubsequent action/reaction to that failure? Data were derived from post-program interviews withchildren and parents who participated in a home-based, elementary engineering programinvolving take-home kits and self-identified engineering projects.

Fifteen collaborators participated insemi-structured interviews, which were analyzed based on the four foundational components ofGEAR. Key findings indicate that the absence of a clear governance structure, siloeddecision-making, and communication challenges impacted the early phase of the project. Thestudy emphasizes the importance of inclusive collaboration in conducting equity-focused workand provides insights for other Alliances seeking to promote diversity and equity in STEMfields. Implications for the Alliance include adopting the GEAR approach more widely, forminga working group to address communication
