The lack of development of soft skills leaves graduateswith a deficient skillset, necessary for lifelong learning and effective communication [12],having a negative impact on their employability and their ability to contribute to widersociety. According to the authors, interpersonal skills such as ethical responsibility should beincorporated into engineer training, in order to ensure that engineers are able to continuouslyevolve, keeping

high attrition, one method ofimproving retention is to better prepare students for coursework through summer bridgeprograms [15], engineering support centers [16], and supplemental instruction [17]. Theseprograms not only allow minority students to overcome academic hurdles, but they also improvetheir sense of belonging by creating communities, which leads to higher success in completingtheir stem degree. Nevertheless, these efforts are largely limited by a lack of institutionalfunding. Moreover, these programs are mostly driven by student commitment, thus placing theburden on students, which is problematic for an already disadvantaged population. Mentoringhas also been shown to improve the technical, professional, and soft skills necessary to

Of surveyed students, 70% noted that they learned newconcepts outside of the material taught in the course and the labs. Topics mentioned includeimproved time management, new calculation methods, CAD software, market research, carbonemissions and energy savings calculations, and sustainability practices. Additionally, studentsfelt that the project provided an opportunity to work as a team and improve their soft skills, suchas communication, problem-solving, and team coordination.

In light of these considerations, wehave approached this challenge by restructuring an existing course which already had beensuccessfully structured to address engineering ethics concepts central to the nature and causes ofengineering failure, by expanding the course via the logical integration of case studies and otheractivities focused on the impact of diversity and inclusivity (or rather the lack thereof) on failuresin development, deployment and use of technology.Effective design or redesign of a course is not a simple matter – in fact, redesign of an

In addition to these hard skills, someparticipants also referred to soft skills they had gained during their training. Some examples theyprovided were related to working with others in a team and communication skills. For instance,one participant reported: I feel like I'm better at communicating things. Almost like I have a better vocabulary. I have better communication skills because of the institute.

. Historically, amajor deterrent for women considering STEM has been lower levels of math self-assessment [8],though recent studies suggest that this is becoming less important for persistence [12], [13]. Forinstance, researchers found that students’ have broadened their perception of the skills required inCS [13] with more awareness of the non-technical or “soft” skills, such as reliability and teamwork,that are sought by employers [29]. This shift suggests a need to explore how students perceive thefield of ML/AI and highlights the importance of studying other factors contributing to persistence.Professional role confidence, comprised of expertise confidence and career-fit confidence, is thedegree to which a person feels confident in their competence

Participants broadly agreed thatin engineering the social and the technical are intermingled; however, many noted that academicinstitutions and industry pervasively privilege the technical, relegating the social to a minor role,as a “soft” skill. Most agreed that the intermingling of the social and the technical is essential ifwe are to solve the more difficult problems faced by our global societies.The value of interdisciplinarity as a way of understanding sociotechnical as a concept tookcentral focus for all four groups, suggesting that collaboration and connectedness are key tosociotechnical activity.

Historically, leadership and professionalskills have been referred to as “soft skills” indicating lesser importance than the “hard” ortechnical skills typically associated with engineering. Leadership development was often pushedto the margins of engineering education using an end-of-program project or a few electivecourses to fulfill the requirements [6], [7]. However, recent work explores the potential andsuccess of integrating leadership and professional development into the technical aspects ofengineering education.

These positive unintended consequences merit further exploration.There is, of course, more work that could be done to increase equity throughout the qualifyingexam process involving active participation of academic departments. For instance, transparencycan be increased through the use of a rubric or otherwise clearly stated criteria for a ‘passing’evaluation. Also, the exam could be framed as an opportunity for every student to learn aboutthemselves and improve by creating the expectation that examiners will provide all students withboth positive and critical feedback.

research and design (i.e. apprenticeship style) projects have naturally been theprimary avenues for student research, as they remain the major modes of quantitative explorationin STEM professional and academic fields [12]. However, there are other presumed merits to theresearch interview approach utilized here in the STEM environment: ● It forces students to confront the impact of science and engineering on a broad population. ● It can “humanize” STEM work, connecting data to people. ● It strengthens soft skills like communication, socialization, and ethics. ● It provides additional training beyond lab or workshop attributes. ● It familiarizes students with government policies that intersect with their
