The students were directly supervised by a graduatestudent under the direction of an engineering faculty member. The courses included ComputerAided Design, Water Science, Systems Thinking, Nanotechnology, and Computer Science.The students had access to previously developed curriculum and TexPREP instructors who hadtaught similar content in prior years. Their objective was to develop and support an effectiveCBI challenge for each course that was engaging for students and addressed the majority ofcourse content. Developed materials supporting the CBI challenge included detailed courseoutlines and

Thoughthis job was not directly related to his field of study, it was an opportunity to use his skill set in adifferent area. When he contacted a graduate student colleague of both Jon and Chris about lifein Philadelphia, that connection proved to be invaluable. He noted his department had a jobposting for a teaching faculty member. This was Chris’s dream job. In the end, Chris left histenure track position for a non-tenure track teaching faculty position and Jon left his researchcareer for a career in software, which has been an underlying passion of his.

In addition to providing opportunities to socialize withother like-minded students, this would provide students with the opportunity to receivementorship from faculty members, which is tied to higher engineering persistence [32]. Asindicated in Figure 2, all participants expressed interest in interdisciplinary research.Similarly, we suggest that universities join forces with industry partners to offer and effectivelymarket interdisciplinary internships, especially towards URMs. Internships have been shown toincrease retention and graduation rates for engineering students [53], particularly URMs [54],making them a promising setting for interdisciplinary collaborations

For many individuals, this period represents a significant shift from therole of a student or postdoctoral researcher to that of an educator, scholar, and contributor tothe academic community.

However, a close reading of the report also reveals twovoices. On the one hand, there was the voice of educators and administrators eager to celebratethe fact that engineering can serve as rigorous preparation for a variety of future occupations. Onthe other hand, there was a smaller number of educators, including NAE staff members who,through their engagement with the literature on women and minorities in engineering educationsought to make the point that many students enter engineering with diverse backgrounds andpreparation in
