our engineering curriculum[9], it is evident that team-based activities and prototyping geared toward solving these problemscan result in increased inclusion of students with disabilities. These solutions can have adramatic impact on the ability of people with disabilities to complete coursework and engage incourse-based ADL independently. Incorporation of guest lecturers including therapists,rehabilitation engineers, and people using assistive technology (known as “need-knowers”during the course) in conjunction with design thinking and rapid prototype fabrication led toremoval of two barriers to success identified by students with disabilities. The purpose of thispaper is to discuss results from two semesters of a new elective engineering

inengineering. Thus, the purpose of this study is to determine if interest-tailored lectures can increasestudent engagement in bioengineering. To answer this question, our proof-of-concept study willinvestigate student engagement between generic and interest-tailored lectures.MethodsStudents entering the 10th grade who are underrepresented in the engineering field were recruitedto participate in a Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) summer program.Specifically, the program was geared towards black, Latinx, Native American and female studentsin public schools in the Pittsburgh area, but students from any gender or ethnic group couldparticipate if they had a grade point average of 2.75 or higher with a 3.0 or higher in math andscience
most pressing science and engineering challenges are trans-national innature and many of the leading scientific and engineering resources are located outside theUnited States. In order to remain at the forefront of science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM), the United States needs to nurture a globally-engaged STEM workforcecapable of performing research in an international environment. To help address this need, theNational Science Foundation’s International Research Experiences for Students (NSF-IRES)program supports the development of globally-engaged U.S. science and engineering studentscapable of performing in an international research environment. These programs involve studentsin international research in meaningful ways

interventions have used variations of thechallenge problem in formal university and high school courses: one was an undergraduate /graduate interaction design studio course that focused on exploring novel functionality of thedevices with interactive technologies, the other was a group of on-campus high school students intheir senior engineering design class who utilized open-source resources to create a prostheticdevice for a local child. The high school students communicated directly with the child and hisparents and set their own project deadlines, with the idea that this would create a greater sense ofaccountability than the average school assignment.
