Students can learn with an emphasis on systems thinking, making decisions in acollaborative team environment; and managing uncertainty in social processes [1].

I was matched with a civil engineering faculty member, Prof. AULE. In the lab, Iwas closely mentored by one of her Master’s level graduate students, ANSP. I felt I belonged.These women became my role models and mentors.

AbstractThis paper explores what elements and concepts should be included in a pre-college, widelyavailable digital course designed to better guide, inform, and prepare high school studentsinterested in pursuing a career in engineering. The purpose of the course is to provide a digitaltool for exploration by high school students and their advising network as they seek to gain abetter understanding of what an engineering education and career entails. As the investigationhas progressed, the potential benefit of developing separate courses for “guide and inform” and“prepare” is appearing.

The great feature of this exercisewas for students to be able to explore a precarious situation and return to a safe haven in which thechoices, feelings and understanding of the different perspectives surrounding the particular scenariocan be explored and expanded on. This was facilitated by the faculty member ensuring eachindividual had a chance to speak and all points were heard.Most of the students showed a desire to participate in what they experience or observed and how itrelated to them. Interestingly, actual feelings of pressure, blame and resolution were among themost common effects, despite the situations being fictional in nature and no real repercussions
