In 1999, MIT conducteda study on women faculty in their life science departments and found resource discriminationsuch as differences in salary, laboratory size, funding, award nominations, and startuppackages.37 In regards to academic commercialization, according to Murray,40 faculty are ofteninvited to engage in this type of activity by former students involved in entrepreneurship.

Incorporation of engineering design experiences across the undergraduatecurriculum with linkages to the university’s engineering innovation laboratory for access toindustry projects contributes to increased student retention and persistence to graduation.CASCADE uses promising practices from research to create a retention program that includesintegrated curriculum, peer-mentoring, learning communities, and efforts that build innovationand creativity into the engineering curriculum. CASCADE vertically aligns 32 problem-baseddesign efforts from the first-year to senior-year (capstone) courses.

Thereafter, students can design an Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) circuitcapable of executing fundamental arithmetic and logic operations. This design exercise can aidstudents in grasping how binary opcodes can effectively govern digital circuits. Furthermore,students also design a functional CPU circuit using the essential components provided by thecircuit simulator.

: Engineering identity formation is not simply the result of technical knowledgeacquisition, but also that of enculturation. Both processes are intricately linked to the places (i.e.,physical infrastructures) in which they unfold such as laboratories, classrooms, communal areas,and other engineering spaces on a university campus. Places act as a conduit for engineeringenculturation, as it is within these settings that students are inundated with value-laden symbols& representations, participate in engineering activities and rituals, and are expected to adopt andembody dominant engineering mindsets and attitudes towards technical problem solving.Recognizing that the physical infrastructure of a place can serve as a tangible manifestation ofbroader

fields [4], [5], [6].In recent years, course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) have been gainingpopularity as a way to engage undergraduate students in authentic scientific inquiry on a largescale [7]. While CUREs have many similarities to traditional laboratory courses or courseresearch projects, the work students do as part of a CURE is framed in a fundamentally differentway. Research projects within CUREs ideally have direct and indirect impact on the broaderscientific community and offer students the opportunity to share study findings with externalstakeholders [8]. Consequently, CUREs represent an overlap between the triumvirate of studentlearning, stakeholder impact, and promotion of a faculty’s research program.In this work
