However, the short calendar span was not conducive toin-depth reflection or detailed course planning, and there was definitely no time forimplementation and testing. Although enthusiasm was high after the workshop, thebeginning of the spring academic semester quickly pushed planned activities to theback burner, and momentum fizzled. Course assignment changes and changes infaculty positions further complicated implementation of the course changes plannedduring the workshop.

Bydefault, project management is an active learning exercise that involves a diverse group ofindividuals. The literature in project management education supports this underlying personalbelief. “Preparing students for professional practice is enhanced by the use of ‘authentic’ tasksand assessments that reflect the practices and outputs encountered in the profession” [1]. Inorder to be authentic, it needs to be a real executable project. The literature also speaks about thedisappointment with practitioners on the skills of students and that has been confirmed withadvisory boards in our college.In addition, students who took the previous version

Yet, the opportunities to develop, sustain, and grow one’sengineering identity are not uniformly distributed across students enrolled in engineering programs, nor evenamong those select students offered the opportunities to participate in mentored engineering researchinterventions [4]. Indeed, engineering students from underrepresented and structurally marginalized groups may have feweraccess points to engage with engineering peers, mentors, and professionals prior to and during their collegiatestudies [5-7]. These challenges can compound for students who may be underrepresented on multipledimensions in this field, seeing their personal identities reflected less often in their intended engineering careers(e.g., gender, sexuality
