This paperreviews recent studies published about the educational choices and preferences of studentveterans. It will also look at current research on the experience of veterans in STEM (Science,Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) majors. Finally, there will be an assessment ofoutreach programs and other events sponsored by academic libraries for this often-overlookedpopulation, with a focus on events designed to encourage or assist STEM student veterans.Trends, successes, and failures will be noted. The intent is to understand the needs of veteranstudents, as well as learn

Language around the project also changed with this iteration. We askedstudents to tell us about a project that was successful rather than open-ended to accommodateengineering students who might not necessarily see their work as open-ended or capture multipletypes of engineering work that may have set constraints or problems.

Change: Fostering Adaptability along the Engineering PathwayIntroductionRapid technological advancement, demographic shifts, and globalization have been reshapingengineering work more quickly than ever [1]. The recent COVID-19 pandemic has also broughtunprecedented socioeconomic, environmental, and political change over the past year [2].Engineers must navigate these changes to innovate solutions to these pressing issues; yetresearch suggests that neither engineering students nor engineering professionals are sufficientlyprepared in this area. This CAREER grant addresses the issue by developing the means to define,understand, measure, and teach adaptability as a key meta-competency for engineers.Adaptability is the ability to

Based on that,students were asked to design a cooling technology for use by a local food bank at producemarkets, integrating what they were learning in their thermodynamics courses.This project was applied in a large university with a class size of 98 as well

These small groupprojects are designed to foster student interest by being lively. Being “lively” means that studentsare actively involved in and outside of class with project problem solving and/or hands-onactivities. ILAPs can motivate students to understand the connections between mathematicaltools/concepts and applications within the broader science and engineering fields. With theseprojects STEM students see real-world applications of mathematics in science and engineering.One of the main goals of the project was to produce assessment data on the effectiveness ofILAPs in
