Students in theoffering with the SIEs only (Fall 2022) and the offering with the SIEs and hands-on laboratoryexperiences (Spring 2023) both showed significant gains over the semester in confidence in theR&D skills and their self-rated preparedness to complete hands-on laboratory research and workin the industry as a process development engineer. Although the average gains in the semesterwith the hands-on laboratory activities were higher, this difference was not statisticallysignificant. Overall, students perceived the SIEs

educational disparities or geographical boundaries, and supporting lifelonglearning are all environmental stressors that push for more access to virtual education [2]. Inaddition to providing more virtual educational experiences for students, there is a growingemphasis on ensuring that higher education also equips all students, whether in person or online,with skills that align with the needs of the industry [3]. One way education tries to equip studentswith skills the industry needs more effectively is by implementing innovation-based learning(IBL) [4,5]. IBL is a teaching paradigm where courses require both undergraduate (UG) and graduatestudents to learn fundamental engineering concepts during class sessions. Then, these studentsengage in

engineering students feel underprepared when going into the workforce, due to a lack ofreal-world application of the college curriculum and the lack of necessary skills to confidentlymake engineering and business decisions [1-3]. Consequently, the transition between college andone’s first job can be difficult for many graduates [4]. This causes many to seek jobs outside ofthe engineering profession altogether; according to one study, only one-third of engineeringgraduates seek jobs in an engineering field [5]. Furthermore, a study by the Carnegie Foundationfound that engineering schools primarily focus on the acquisition of technical knowledge, leavinglittle attention to real-world application or preparing for employment [6].To combat this issue, the

approach may leave students unsure about potential careers [3], since itoften does not include integrating innovation, ideation, and developing new products, which arecrucial areas within the cutting-edge BME field [1], [4].One way to improve BME students’ confidence in their career preparation has been to introducethem to undergraduate research in BME-specific areas, such as research experience forundergraduates (REU) programs [5], [6], [7], as a way to encourage them to pursue graduate-level research and apply their curricular knowledge to practice [2], [8]. Generally, REUprograms have encouraged development of communication skills through both oral presentationand writing technical research, laboratory and computer skills, and collaboration

engineering frequently suffer from a crippling form of technical-social dualism,separating the technical knowledge that engineers possess from the social implications that theirknowledge engages [3]. This dualism is readily apparent in the traditional engineering curriculumwith its heavy emphasis on math, science, and the engineering sciences, portraying engineering asa series of solely technical problems that need to be solved [4]. As engineers enter the workforce,this false technical-social dualism creates inner conflicts for practicing engineers as they end upspending most of their jobs solving problems in isolation from the context [5]. Meaning-rich,context-driven curriculum supports deeper forms of learning and the subsequent ability to

, what many regard as the Entrepreneurial Mindset (EM), is often perceived to be an all-or-nothing tradeoff [3]–[6]. Some faculty may view courses dedicated to creativity and innovationas diluting the otherwise necessary technically-heavy engineering degree [7].Despite these challenges, countries such as South Korea have implemented the STEAM-basedapproach with the STEAM education initiative in K-12 observing benefits in cognitive andaffective student learning [8]. Improvement in divergent and metacognitive thinking have alsobeen reported as a consequence of STEAM-based learning in the Australian system, according toMcAuliffe [9]. These benefits suggest an inclusion of STEAM-based learning approaches in theAmerican engineering education system
