This tri-institution collaborationleveraged existing relationships as an opportunity to expand current efforts to broadenparticipation in STEM majors and careers between the state’s flagship institution and the twoHBCUs. The goal of this coalition was to identify barriers to pursuing and earning STEM M.S.and Ph.D. degrees faced by Black, Latinx, and Native American students from the threeinstitutions; to identify and cultivate internal champions and mentors who can help to overcomeinstitutional biases; and to develop a framework for these institutions to work together in creatinga pathway to graduate degrees that could be extended to other institutions.Following a mixed methods

unrecognized effects! Background RPS & Case Study Methods, Data Collection, and Analysis Results and Discussion Final Thoughts 2As algorithms proliferate across domains, their development for analysis,prediction, and generation tasks raises questions about fairness, justice,and inclusion. One primary reason is algorithmic data bias, a commonphenomenon across datasets and systems that reflects incomplete ormisused data. With the incentive to make generalized systems that cando everything, everywhere, data bias reflects the data makeup and howit leads to systematically unfairly generated decisions or outcomes.As future engineers, analysts, and scientists, it is fundamental thattechnology students are made aware early in their careers

Identifying potential hazards andsystematically documenting factors that could lead to accidents in the future is a crucial skill inengineering. Although there are various methods for recording these hazards on constructionsites or predicting potential accidents, mastering this skill requires time and expertise, which canpose challenges for young engineers starting their careers. As the demands of their professionbecome increasingly rigorous, newly graduated engineers often undergo intensive training fortheir job sites.

Combining face-to-face and distance-education coursesAnother opportunity to teach two sections as if they were one is to combine the work fora face-to-face and distance-ed (“online”) section of the same course. Of our respondents,26 of them thought this would save time, and 13 didn’t (Figure 5). The reasons in favorof it saving time mirror those for teaching multiple face-to-face sections. For example,“I've done this dozens of times over a 40+ year career. Definitely easier because there isonly one set of exams and assignments to prepare and you are focused on the topic.

transactional frame ofmind: their attention was on how the activity would meet their course requirements and expandtheir career-related experience. The engineering students approached the project from a relationalframe of mind; their attention was on the needs of the client. The end result was that the client,who had participated in three consecutive years of “service learning” projects, declined toparticipate in future collaborations.One of the consequences of putting a priority on the relationships is that the completion ofprescribed projects may then be secondary.

, graphics, and communication. These oversights may have caused the students to question the relevance of the teamwork activities to their design project, in turn, leading them to label the exercises as “busy work” (a term they use all too readily for many of the assignments in DTC, even those that they come to value later in their undergraduate career). The syllabus also did not explicitly list how the teamwork assignments would be weighted in the final course grade. While they were included as part of the student’s “individual grade,” this only comprised 10% of the final grade, of which, the teamwork assessments were only a small part.2) Adding eight additional exercises to an already crowded curriculum was a mistake.

. The educational diversity in BME results not only from differentuniversities failing to cover the whole “core,” as we have defined it, but from students havingmany elective experiences. Whether students have more breadth (a large number of common courses) or more depth(tracks) is clearly an unresolved question in BME undergraduate education, with opinions ofacademia and industry reflecting the diversity that is seen in programs. It will be of interest torevisit this in another ten years, but this is not necessarily a question that needs to be resolved.
