Although this was a very smallsample to make any conclusive statement, according to the survey data, this experience wascertainly instrumental in attracting as well as preparing these ten engineers and researchers to thefields of manufacturing.References 1.

Erica’s familial experience highlighted this conflicting message: Since I'm the only one in my family who has gone to college and to graduate school, every time I come around, my family is like, "oh, you're gonna be a doctor!"… [So] every single time that I'm at work and I'm considering "is this really what I want to do," I have that in the back of my mind, wait, I'm going to let all these people down?

However, it has been noted by the DOE AdvancedScientific Computing Advisory Committee (2) and others (3) (4) (5) that the DOE Laboratories faceworkforce development and recruitment challenges. Further complicating the matter is theunderrepresentation of women and minorities in high end computing. Disparities in representation andparticipation impede educational attainment and access to the Science and Technology (S&T) workforce.While underrepresentation and lack of diversity are noted generally across S&T fields, they are more 1pronounced in mathematical and computing sciences (6) (7) (8) (9).

Consciousness Competency. In the United States entrepreneurial training was starting toget introduced across colleges and universities in the 1970’s. Since then entrepreneurshipeducation and training programs have expanded and been adopted in several more college anduniversity curricula in recent years. It is estimated that 80% of all U.S. colleges and universitiesat present implement such programs [3]. Entrepreneurship for most of the students is a newexperience. The benefits it offers includes the opportunity to acquire new skills and experience,access to knowledge and tools related to establishing and operating companies, decision makingand negotiations, project management and team working and bearing consequences of undesiredoutcomes.

Thenumber of foreign students studying at American higher educational institutions is consistentlyincreasing and they possess unique cultures influencing the study and experience of domesticstudents. In this study, we focus on teamwork and peer assessment behaviors of multi-culturalteams as compared to domestic [U.S.] teams in a large Midwestern first year engineeringprogram. Our research question is: do teams containing one or more international student(s)have, on average, different peer rating behaviors from teams containing only domestic students?We find significant peer evaluation differences in

moreholistic design paradigm. Engineering design itself is described as “a creative decision-makingprocess that aims to find an optimal balance of trade-offs in the production of an artifact that bestsatisfies customer and other stakeholder preferences” [1]. Sustainable design only requires thatsustainability principles be incorporated into this complex decision-making process to promoteconsideration of and balance between the economic, environmental, and social systems duringproject development [2]. Describing this innovative approach to design, Skerlos et.al.
