The SCoPE engineering curriculum engages middle school students in athree-week capstone project focusing on managing nutrient pollution in their local watershed.Students engage with the problem through local news articles and images of algae covered lakeswhich drives the investigation into the detrimental processes caused by excess nutrients fromsources such as fertilizer and wastewater entering bodies of water. Students apply ideas learnedpreviously in science class to help define the problem, which deepens their understanding of thescience content and emphasizes the role of science in solving problems with engineering. Theyresearch the sources of nutrient pollution and potential strategies for managing

Survey results showed that neither ME nor ECE students had a prior exposure to theother discipline. After completing the course, ME students perceived that they knew more aboutchild development, play, and the design of children’s toys, and ECE students reported they betterunderstood the types of engineering disciplines.

The study happened in an upper division project-based engineeringprogram which is part of the extended campus of a medium size public university in theMidwest. The course had a total of 28 students and 17 of the 28 fully participated and consentedto the research. Each semester the students in the program are placed on vertically integratedteams, meaning first and second semester juniors (J1s and J2s) are working with seniors (S1s andS2s), and assigned a project of the scope and scale of a typical capstone project.

Among participants, they found a lack of stigma around non-academic career paths, which was credited to the interaction of NRT students with non-academic entities through internships and capstone design projects outside of academia.

Encourage internships.Internships are a great way to prepare students for careers on multi-disciplinary teams. Onebenefit is to allow students to learn if they like and think they can thrive in that environment. Thesecond is to already start acquiring the necessary skills to succeed in these positions early on.Internships which have a component around rotation across teams, also allow students to gainwider appreciation of how different positions interact, before having to dive deep into one role.On completion of junior-year internships, students can then bring back acquired skills to theirfinal year classes, capstone projects, and
