Seniordesign students at the University of Northern Iowa established multiple grid connected wind-solar hybrid power stations on campus. These systems have been used for teaching and researchpurposes besides the green power generation and a showcase for the recruitment to STEM fields[8-9].

Likewise, white students often overlook Black andBrown women when using laboratory equipment or delineating tasks having to do with figuringmathematics for the homework assignment [13].Marginalizing behaviors begin with team formation, where self-selection practices result in lessgender and racially diverse teams [14]. Team formation by self-selection is still pervasive despiteoverwhelming evidence of the problematic outcomes [14]. In cases where team formation iscontrolled by instructors, race, gender, and other salient characteristics that may serve as markersof difference within teams should be carefully considered in the execution of team-basedlearning.

The IRES Track II (Advanced Studies Institute) program is a brief (15-21days) yet intensive course designed specifically for graduate students. This is more narrowlyaimed at cutting-edge research, and the engagement of eminent scholars in the relevant field isrequired to justify the choice of a foreign location.This paper discusses how international research benefits engineering students.

Students canexplore EM concepts related to real-world social issues and expand ‘professional skills’ such asrecognizing opportunities, creativity, communication, leadership and adaptability throughexperiential learning modules. Such modules can be easily integrated into design-based coursesas well as laboratory courses to provide students with a hands-on experience and expose them toopen-ended questions. However, it is
