interactions [9].Research from Handley, Lang and Erdman (2016) investigated the perspectives of on-campusrecruiters who were looking for leadership among engineering students in their final year ofstudies [10]. They found that recruiters were seeking students who had been involved inactivities outside the classroom and had the ability to articulate the learning gained from theseexperiences. The three engineering leadership themes they identified were communication (self-awareness), connection (big picture thinking) and confidence [10]. 2These studies are valuable because they shed light on employer perspectives of desiredleadership qualities and

Moreover, incommunicating our findings using personas with contextualized scenarios that describe how thepersonas choose to actively engage (or not engage) with the online forum, we anticipate (a)improved transfer of contextual findings to a broad audience of STEM education stakeholdersand (b) heightened motivation and confidence among STEM educators toward implementingonline forums in order to increase participation of diverse, nontraditional undergraduates.Prior Use of

As such, these institutions face a significant genderdisparity in their student populations.

University’s Master of Sciencein Electrical Engineering program highlighted a significant improvement in the quality of thestudent capstone when the students elected to substitute systems engineering courses for theproject management courses. Projects tended to be more organized, and include strongerevaluations of practicality and performance of the final project.The Professors Santiago and Kasley have instructed several graduate several courses inelectrical, computer and systems engineering, and observed the improvement in student workwhen challenged to use of system-level thinking. This provided one key reason whyengineering faculty wanted to adopt a system engineering approach. In addition, the localcampus has a heavy military presence, and systems
