Retired astronaut John B. Herrington [15] conducted research on themotivation and engagement of Native American students in a NASA-sponsored summerSTEM program on the Duck Creek Indian Reservation in the high desert of Idaho andNevada. Commander Herrington found indigenous students were more enthusiastic whenpresented information on traditional tools and techniques used by their ancestors longbefore the introduction of western STEM disciplines [14].A final area of research is studying civic engagement among STEM students who havecompleted history of technology

One of the major suggestions from the IAC wasto provide an environment for students to practice multi-disciplinary innovative productdevelopment in our curriculum. The faculty pointed to this course much to the delight of theIAC. On another occasion the IAC was meeting one year after the completion of the first ENGR350 course; they were viewing the capstone projects of the first students to have completed theentire PBL sequence from freshman through senior. One of the IAC members pointed out thatthe projects that year tended to be of a higher caliber than those of previous years, noting thatthese students were the first to finish the entire PBL sequence.References[1] Self, B.

Education, 2018 Innovation in the Risk Management course to improve undergraduate university students’ skills for multidisciplinary and participatory workAbstractThe ability to work in multidisciplinary teams and communicate solutions efficiently is oneof the main requirements asked for by employers and international accreditation committeesto engineering graduates around the world. However, traditionally the curricular contents ofeach professional career related to the construction sector, emphasizes the application of itsspecific knowledge in an isolated manner.This is a reality in Peru as well. Engineering students are neither trained to work in teams norin multidisciplinary projects. This hinders
