The collaborationresulted in the development of a localised engineering course where students are taught engineering skills focusedon solving problems that exist in the local communities.Our approach to preparing teachers to facilitate localised engineering was via an engineering CoP that was initiatedin 2017, with only three volunteering teachers at the time with no STEM background and an engineering

Why is it that it's getting discounted?Participant: Yeah, I think they wanted pure number crunching, pure the scientific aspect. And why are you thinking about the community? Why engage them? Because we're environmentals I think we just naturally do it. But I think for the other disciplines like mechanical engineers they're like, why.Interviewer: What ideas do you have to help folks be successful if [CER] is their passion?Participant: I think we just have to recommend to them that they have to look at the landscape that they're part of.

While a focuson law enforcement by the United States would be one mechanism to prevent the flow ofnarcotics, a second approach includes supporting the livelihoods of Fischer’s throughout theCaribbean. In this way, support for sustainable development simultaneously protects the nationalsecurity interest of the United States.As part of end of semester, student evaluations of the course, examples of optional feedbackrelated to this module included (lightly edited to enhance readability): • “I really liked the modules on the problems in Guatemala and in the Caribbean.

A fourth consideration is the growing use of AI-generated content on conference websites,including potential use in crafting mission statements, speaker bios, or program summaries.This could mean that future research becomes subject to growing concerns on the limitationsof using synthesized data. If conference organizers are transparent about such use, it mayprovide a valuable opportunity to explore how generative AI tools influence the tone, struc-ture, and inclusivity of conference materials.

The faculty advertised the initial internship (summer 2022) to all ENGDstudents. Two students were interested in participating, both of whom were hired after beinginterviewed by faculty advisors.

feasibility is only one part of successfullyimplementing a societal solution. Our traineeship model of STEM graduate education usescommunity-engaged design projects as a training mechanism that brings together students fromdifferent disciplines to creatively solve real-world problems at the intersection of health, society,and technology. A key feature of these year-long community-engaged design projects is thattrainees get to work in multi-disciplinary teams while being immersed within the actualcommunities affected by these societal problems, where they benefit from learning about thelived experiences of actual community members. Working with these community partners,student teams co-create solutions that directly address the needs of that specific
