problems, making use of the knowledge and trainingacquired through the entire college curriculum, and demonstrating student readiness to enter thejob market or moving into research. These projects are often displayed at venues where judgesfrom academia and industry conduct evaluations to assess those achievements. Grading rubricsare generally based on the engineering approach, ability to reach a solution, specific designcontent, innovation, team performance, and presentation and communication skills. It hasbecome popular that these showcases turn into competitions, with prizes and recognitionsawarded to selected projects. In this study, we took an additional perspective on these capstonecourses and events by analyzing the composition of these

many students without mentors or overtaxwomen and URM faculty. There is a need for institutions to educate faculty, staff, and studentsabout cultural competency and awareness of stereotypes and biases, both conscious andunconscious (Walden et al., 2018). From our collective perspective as STEM educationresearchers and promoters of student success, any individual with mentoring responsibilities oran inclination to support URM students should have access to critically reviewed informationand quality training in evidence-based mentoring best practices. To that end, we have developeda vision for our project: All mentors will be skilled, confident, and motivated to support thesuccess of protégés from all backgrounds, particularly students from

an integrated modeling and testing environment.National Research 1 This is a book on the Panel on Undergraduate Engineering Education performed by the National Research Council. In Chapter 4 TheCouncil (1986) Curriculum, 3+2 curriculum is mentioned as a recent proposal for the engineering curriculum. The report considers 3+2 programs as experimental approaches to the professional model.Payton et al. (2012) 1, 2 Supported by statistical data, the study applies the Involvement, Regimen, Self-Management, and Social Networks (IRSS) theory to an early college program at Clark Atlanta University.Rockward (2002) 1 This document is a

currently thatexists in the U.S. construction industry.Consequently, this would assist the construction industry in recruiting and retaining the youngworkforce. As presented by the United States of America Bureau of Economic Analysis reportfor the first quarter of 2022, the construction industry's nominal value added was 4.1 percent ofthe GDP and is projected to reach a Compound Annual Growth Rate of 5 percent from 2022-2026. This projection of industry growth exacerbates the ongoing crisis of workforce shortagethat exists in the United States' construction industry.MethodologyThe objective of this study is to improve the construction management curriculum in order toprovide students with a thorough understanding of the advantages and possibilities

some type of post-secondary credential. Belser et al. [4], probedthe effect of harnessing career trajectory to alleviate retention challenges in freshmen andsophomore years of an engineering degree. They modelled variables such as race and gender,SAT score and math readiness on retention stats. While nationally, trends in high schoolgraduation for college enrollment project contractions, Texas is among the handful of states thatwill see an increase in the number of high school graduates in the next 15 years. Those increaseswill reflect a more diverse student body with 75% of the high school graduates being non-White.[5] Institutions will need to focus on serving students that have historically been underserved andmarginalized within higher

The research analyzes large-scale perishable historical data provided by the PuertoRico examination board and Universities. This study will have two theoretical andmethodological contributions to the literature. It will: (1) advance our understanding to addressdiversity, equity, and inclusion issues related to our workforce and their success in theengineering and construction industry; (2) inform the literature on how to reform our educationcurriculum to accommodate the necessary tools needed to prepare minority
