contribute to a sense of STEM identity, andthereby retention, in URMs [39], [52]. In addition to providing opportunities to socialize withother like-minded students, this would provide students with the opportunity to receivementorship from faculty members, which is tied to higher engineering persistence [32]. Asindicated in Figure 2, all participants expressed interest in interdisciplinary research.Similarly, we suggest that universities join forces with industry partners to offer and effectivelymarket interdisciplinary internships, especially towards URMs. Internships have been shown toincrease retention and graduation rates for engineering students [53], particularly URMs [54],making them a promising setting for interdisciplinary collaborations

such as mechanical andcivil engineering [1]. The tools of the engineer in students’ minds are often closer to a hammer ora wrench rather than a test tube or beaker, and thus their conception of engineering is oftenlimited at best [1]. This can get further complicated by the lack of interdisciplinarity exemplifiedin the engineering classroom. When engineering instruction is scaled at the university level, thereis the potential to lose interdisciplinarity as well as too much emphasis on limited topics relevantto the field of engineering [2]. When this happens, the curriculum may revert to limiting thecurriculum to the most popular images of engineering, fields such as mechanical, civil, andcomputer engineering [1].The goal of this work is to

For example, Olivia’s describes: This is what they think engineering looks like: white men for the most part. And I am not that, at all. I feel like I had to prove myself, even when no one was telling me, "Olivia, you don't belong here.". In my mind it is like I have to show you that this is where I belong.Olivia’s emotional response to this identity related experience was to prove herself.

Future work should disaggregate racial/ethnic demographics further particularly for Asianstudents and to include Middle Eastern students. A final limitation to using the NEP Scale is thatalthough it is the most widely used measure of environmental worldview, recent studies havesuggested that the scale be further explored to more adequately capture the diversity of modernenvironmentalism [27]. With these limitations in mind, there is still much to glean from the implications of thisstudy for engineering research and practice.

This program was developed forincoming first-year engineering students with three goals in mind: 1. Students build and develop a sense of community (including a sense of belonging and engineering student identity) 2. Students broaden their thinking about the skills (both technical and non-technical) that they need to be a successful engineer in the 21st century 3. Model intellectual engagementThroughout the history of the Common Reading Experience (CRE), program evaluations havebeen compiled annually. However, to determine if the program was meeting its

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the types of activities used to teach electriccircuits and students’ reported perceptions of these activities. This systematic literature review isaimed at answering the following questions: “How are engineering learning environmentsdesigned to promote students’ understanding of electric circuits? What are students’ perceptionsof the types of activities used in enhancing their understanding of circuit concepts?” Systematicliterature reviews as opposed to the
