Minnesota, Dulut ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2025 Experiences in Piloting a Program for Implementing High Impact Practices with Limited ResourcesAbstractIt is known that low-income, first-generation, and underrepresented students in engineering andcomputer science have rates of retention and graduation that lag behind their peers. A growingbody of research has identified a range of high-impact practices and exemplar programs thathave been successful in improving outcomes for these at-risk populations. Some areas that thesepractices seek to address include: financial need, academic preparation, sense of community,confidence, and professional identity. The challenge of

The data are analyzed via hypothesis coding that was constructedusing the seven Dimensions of Learning Power from Deakin Crick et al.’s (2004) EffectiveLifelong Learning Inventory (ELLI)6, and the emergent codes of Becoming an engineer andAppreciation for lifelong learning.

has emerged as a core skill for thesuccess of new graduates and career growth. While the leadership studies field enjoys a broadliterature base, there is concern that many leadership development efforts have not demonstratedquantitatively substantive impacts on their students [9]. Some suggest this may be due to thecomplex, individual, and dynamic nature of leader development [10].IdentityOne approach that has emerged to meet the challenges of leader formation is identity (how onesees oneself, and is seen by others, in society). This approach has seen growth in the leadershipstudies field (e.g.,[3]) but is yet to be widely applied within an engineering context [11]. Thatsaid, some scholars interested in engineering leadership development have

In this work, the fields of study used to define an under-represented minority include Science,Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). Under-represented minorities do not necessarily havesimilar characteristics such as culture (family, ethnic, social), motivations, perspectives etc. For example,a Hispanic student who grows up in the inner city, is on free or reduced lunch, and lives in a governmentsubsidized home often has little in common with a Hispanic student who is raised in a financially stablehousehold in the suburbs. Additionally, an under-represented minority with immigrant parents may beraised in a cultural

The initial goal ofthe program was to generate intrinsic motivation in engineering students regarding their civil engineeringeducation [12]. The purpose of this exploratory study is to present preliminary information about the implementationof Icarus, as a radical engineering education experiment. The program’s goal was to provide students with adifferent space to develop the competencies and skills desired while simultaneously they form their identity asengineers.

The project seeks to elucidate theimpediments that underrepresented students, particularly women, face in pursuing graduateengineering degrees and the potential solutions to overcome those barriers.Our methodology in this phase encompassed a comprehensive mixed-method survey, garneringresponses from over 600 undergraduate and graduate engineering students within the Faculty ofEngineering. Preliminary analyses revealed that the decision to pursue graduate studies isinfluenced by intersectional identity variables.In the sphere of engineering education, the pursuit of diversity, inclusion, and equity has longbeen recognized as
