it is important for programs to helpstudents to quickly adjust to the program and to build upon their identities as researchers [7].Sense of Belonging This study utilizes Strayhorn’s [4] definition of sense of belonging, which refers to afeeling of mattering or being connected and can be seen as a reflection of the supports that existwithin a given context. According to Strayhorn [4], a student’s sense of belonging has beenfound to be related to the retention, specifically, of women students majoring in STEM fields.Literature focusing on sense of belonging for women engineering majors has shown that womenfeel a lesser sense of belongingness than their men counterparts, contributing to a lower rate ofretention for women in engineering

American universities, for example, are excellent references in investmentsin the education of their engineering courses, as well as in modern teaching and adequateinfrastructure [2].Considered by different authors as one of the best ways for students to acquire complete andrealistic knowledge, active learning is another way of teaching. This approach is student-centered, ensuring that professors are professionals who guide students in this process [3],[4]. The involvement of the whole class increases from active learning strategies, making itpossible to develop an opportunity to reflect on learning in a set of solutions to real problems[5].The different active learning strategies also guarantee the development of professional skillsthat students

The lack of racial diversity reflects the demographics ofthe program and the university as a predominantly white institution.

Student responses reflected an appreciation for theopportunity to learn more about other engineering disciplines, with one student responding, “Ithelped me to understand the problems and solutions as a whole when considering a proposeddesign.” Another student said, “Working with many different types of engineers was great becausethey all brought good questions and different perspectives on agrivoltaics.

TechnologyStudies (STS). Throughout the fall 2019 semester, I began to question the ways in which I hadbeen recruited and channeled, as a woman with an interest in science and math, into studyingengineering. Upon taking an introductory STS course, I was introduced to reflecting criticallyabout engineering as a field of study. This led me to enroll in a graduate seminar, EngineeringStudies, which provided me with a much deeper introduction to STS-inflected studies ofengineering, including engineering education. During this time, my professor, along with apostdoctoral fellow, were co-PIs for a study of student experiences in engineering education andhad already convened a group of undergraduate students who were in the process of interviewingtheir peers

Differences exist among codes to reflect unique areas of technical focus, and codesare updated periodically in response to changing social and professional values.

A lack of cultural fit in design solutions has prevented design adoption and diffusion inmany humanitarian engineering and global development efforts. Design requirements aredeveloped to reflect the target user’s needs and product specifications. A lack of cultural fit inthe design solutions suggests there may be a lack of details in the design requirements thatprevents the requirements from conveying cultural information crucial to design success. Usingan experimental case study approach, this study investigates the effects of the Cultural ElementRequirement Assessment (CERA) on design requirement detail.

While some recent work hasexplored stress and mental health indicators of engineering undergraduates, comparisons of suchindicators across disciplines are scarce.
